Calls to toughen the new Climate Change Bill are being backed by Keighley MP Ann Cryer.

She is supporting Friends of the Earth's campaign for greater reductions in CO2 emissions. Local members have already asked Keighley people to sign postcards in support of its amendments, and the Wharfedale branch last month presented 120 postcards, signed by Keighley and Ilkley people, to Mrs Cryer, above. The Government proposes a 60 per cent cut in carbon dioxide emissions by 2050.
