Bold Solutions: The economic, climate and energy crises and how we fix them – London

A TUC conference on solutions to the energy, climate and economic crises

Both our economy and our planet are in crisis.

Bills and sea levels are rising at an unprecedented rate. Nationally, the cost-of-living scandal is driving absolute poverty and forcing millions into increasingly desperate conditions. Globally, climate change is threatening the lives and livelihoods of billions of workers. These crises are parallel and inter-linked.

We urgently need a politics that builds a safe climate for future generations, a rapid and just transition with quality jobs, and an economy that rewards work, not wealth. The TUC is convening a conference: two events, one in person and one online, that will coincide with COP 27 and bring trade union and climate activists together to gather solutions.

How do we combine our struggles for an equitable cost of living, workers’ rights and a just transition to climate safety?
