Help switch off climate chaos by switching Britain to green taxes.

The Liberal Democrats believe climate change is a major threat to our planet .  Unlike Labour and the Conservatives, Menzies Campbell's Liberal Democrats have a firm plan to tackle climate chaos.

Liberal Democrats will lead by example by ensuring that Britain achieves its Kyoto targets well before the deadline. We will tackle traffic pollution by getting more people onto public transport. We will ensure that much more of the UK's electricity comes from safe and renewable sources.

The Lib Dems will cut income tax and switch to green taxes on pollution instead. Then the more you choose to switch to greener living the more money you will save.

Most people agree. A Guardian/ICM poll released in February 2006 showed that about two people out of every three (63%) approve of new green taxes to discourage environmentally damaging behaviour.

We would change the Climate Change Levy into a Carbon Tax. This would be more effective at discouraging the use of polluting fuels and energy sources that harm our environment. We would also strengthen tax incentives to use smaller and less polluting vehicles and more energy efficient homes.

Also, Liberal Democrats want Tony Blair to scrap his plans to build more nuclear power plants.

Nuclear power is hugely expensive. They cost millions to build and it then costs millions to clean up their waste.

Every person in the UK is paying £1,500 to clean up the waste from the last 50 years. Imagine how much more it will cost us if we have more nuclear power.
