SHOW THE LOVE!
Remind your MP that we love the planet, and want them to protect it above all else.
It can take several weeks for post sent to an MP to get through so this month is a good time to organise a new green heart for your local MP to wear on their chest in the House of Commons during the week of February 12th-18th. Check who your MP is here:

You can use your meeting place postcode.
Why not have a small competition in your WI to make green heart badges and send the winner to your MP in early January? You can use any materials you like, there are some crafty ideas here:

Why bother? Because WI members can use the power of green hearts to show decision makers that we want to see urgent action to tackle climate change, protect nature and bring down bills. These problems can feel huge, but together we can create real and meaningful change. Even better, your President could arrange to meet with your MP to present them with their green heart, and use the opportunity to remind them that the climate crisis cannot be ignored, and it is very important to us voters.
