Urge your MP to stand up for the environment

Humanists are guided by reason and science and recognise a moral duty towards the welfare of our fellow beings and the natural world. Humanists seek to engage in dialogue and debate rationally, intelligently, and with attention to evidence, and promote the understanding that humans are part of a wider natural world which must be treated sustainably for the sake of current and future generations.

We’ve made it easy for you to write to your MP.

On this page, you’ll find a default model letter that we highly recommend you personalise (Members of Parliament are more likely to take notice of personalised emails and queries).

We recommend that you explain why you personally think it is important to protect biodiversity and prevent climate change. If you have any accounts or stories about how people you know who have been affected by this issue, make sure to include those.

MPs can be very busy and receive a large number of letters, so may not respond immediately. If you have not received a response within two weeks of writing, follow up with your MP by emailing them or calling their office.
