    Financial Services and Markets Bill holds the key to ending UK financing of deforestation, say Lords across the political spectrum

    The House of Lords has a rare opportunity to change financial regulation for the better, securing the future of the world’s forests – and the people and wildlife who depend on them

    Stop bankrolling deforestation

    As the Bank of England convenes the Climate and Capital Conference to discuss the banking sector’s approach to ‘climate-related financial risks’, they could do worse than consider their impact on the world’s forests

    The UK's new PM has a ‘once in a generation’ opportunity to make the UK a global green finance centre and curb deforestation

    The Financial Services and Markets Bill is a historic opportunity to align UK money flows with the urgent needs of the planet, and make good on the deforestation pledges the UK made at COP26 last year

    Green spaces deserve to be protected – in the UK and around the world

    We wouldn’t accept our local parks being ripped up for the sake of profit. Nor should we accept that the eradication of vital tropical ecosystems is simply the cost of doing business

    Two years on from the UK’s declaration of climate emergency, we need less bluster and more action from the UK government

    Two years ago today, the UK Parliament declared a climate emergency. As the UK gears up to host the G7 Summit and COP26, the government has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to show real global climate leadership. But the question is, will its rhetoric be matched with action?
