Popular policies for a fairer, healthier, greener Scotland

Enable the establishment of locally-owned public energy and heat companies, co-owned by community organisations, to help ensure a social mandate for renewables and deliver substantial benefits for local economies and communities

Continue the ban on new nuclear energy production

Restrict any use of negative emissions technologies (NETS) to the most hard to decarbonise heavy industry and ensure any inclusion of these is backed by a credible, science-based delivery plan
