Back the Ecocide Prevention Bill

ecocide monica

Scottish Co-operative Party MSP Monica Lennon has submitted the final proposal for her Ecocide (Prevention) (Scotland) Bill. The Bill aims to:

  • Make harming the environment a serious offence through introducing a crime of ecocide.
  • Deter harm through tough sanctions, including prison sentences.
  • Ensure Scotland keeps pace with ecocide law developments in Europe and internationally.

The consultation on this Bill demonstrated overwhelming support for an ecocide law – 95% of responses were in favour of introducing a crime of ecocide.

Thanks to hundreds of campaigners writing to their MSPs, this Bill now has cross-party support and can proceed to the next step in the Scottish Parliament. If you back making polluters pay, add your name now to back the campaign for an Ecocide Bill.
