Petition text:
We call upon the British government to urgently divert 10% of the annual defence budget of £33 billion to addressing the grave security threat posed by climate change.

We call for these funds to be used immediately to drive down greenhouse gas emissions across the economy: through enhanced investment in research and development into renewable energy and a crash programme of making the UK's houses and buildings more energy efficient.
