New oil and gas licenses will jeopardise a safe and healthy environment for people now and for generations to come.

    Just last month, as the UK’s second warmest year on record concluded, the UK joined other countries in signing the UAE consensus at Cop28 and thus pledged to transition away from fossil fuels.
