John Muir Trust campaigns for Carbon Emissions Land Tax
16 August 2023
Thomas Widrow, campaigns manager for the John Muir Trust, has emailed
I am contacting you because as an organisation member of the Scottish Climate Action Network, I believe you will be interested in one of our policy proposals for the Scottish Government: the Carbon Emissions Land Tax (CELT). Over 30 climate and environmental justice coalitions, organisations, charities, community groups and businesses representing hundreds of thousands of Scots have already publicly backed our campaign.
. . . .
The John Muir Trust is now circulating a letter of support for CELT with our partners and potential allies, and we would appreciate you distributing the letter with your members and network.
