Theresa May’s speech on the environment today, which comes hot on the heels of internal polling by the Tories showing that they are seen as “not caring enough,” managed to be both highly significant and utterly underwhelming
The government must act to protect the environment against degradation by business that deal in fossil fuels — calling for clean-up of plastics and other pollutants alone is not enough to save the earth. Human security and sustainable development are two of the major tasks of the UN, and all nations should comply with its norms. This means implementing One World under One Set of Laws andgiving international law precedence over domestic law. All nations should comply with the UN Charter, the Paris climate agreement and other relevant pacts. For details see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development. §1.9 §1.10 §5.1 §6.1 §6.10
