Case

Prevent more fossil fuel developments

Victory at last. Following judicial review proceedings, issued by Good Law Project alongside noted environmentalists Dale Vince and George Monbiot, Government has confirmed in its Energy White Paper that it does concede the need to review the Energy National Policy Statement.

Case overview

We have only been able to take on this case thanks to the support from hundreds of people. Thank you.
