Send a letter to the new Minister of Energy and Climate calling for a green energy revolution

Gordon Brown has created a new department for climate change and energy, and Ed Miliband has been appointed its head. This is, potentially, fantastic news. Until now, one department has been dealing with climate change and another - the department for business (DBERR) - with energy. This move, at last, could extract our energy policy from the interests of big business and mean we have hope for real, decisive action on climate.

And, of course, a lot depends on Miliband. He has the potential to bring fresh thinking to the substantial task of fixing the UK's renewable energy strategy and will be a pivotal player in the government's decision on whether or not to allow a new coal-fired power station to go ahead at Kingsnorth in Kent.

Please take a couple of minutes to personalise the letter below to let Mr Milliband know that you want him to support a clean energy future, greater energy efficiency and oppose a new coal plant at Kingsnorth.
