If you were distracted by the rugby or your loved ones this weekend, you may have missed a significant moment in UK politics.
The Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition have agreed to put aside their differences and work together across party lines to tackle climate change.
In the agreement (brokered by the ever-impressive Green Alliance supported by Christian Aid, CAFOD, Greenpeace, WWF and the RSPB), David Cameron, Ed Miliband and Nick Clegg have jointly pledged to...
...seek a fair, strong, legally binding, global climate deal which limits temperature rises to below 2°C....work together, across party lines, to agree carbon budgets in accordance with the Climate Change Act....accelerate the transition to a competitive, energy efficient low carbon economy and to end the use of unabated coal for power generation.
We often bemoan the partisan nature of politics and a seeming obsession with the short-term fixes to chronic problems, but on this occasion the leaders of the three main parties at Westminster have shown true leadership. They have struck a political consensus to act in the long-term interests of people and the planet.
So, to all of you that have worn your green heart on your sleeve this month, be warmed by the thought that Messrs. Cameron, Clegg and Miliband have shown their love for the things that could be lost to climate change and have given a clear signal to business investors that UK is fixed a low carbon future - a future that rules out the use of unabated coal in power generation.
This should give heart to all of you that have, for many years, campaigned for action to tackle climate change at home and it should instill confidence that the UK will play a leading role in securing a fair, ambitions and binding climate change deal when negotiations culminate in the December Paris summit.
And, if your heart is not warmed enough, read this excellent commentary from Green Alliance here and do watch this film that shows our political leaders in action here.
