The Energy Campaign
At the end of 2008 with the climate change act through parliament, the coalition switched its attention to energy policy. The new campaign demands were for UK government to boost investment in renewables and scrap plans for a string of coal power stations beginning with Kingsnorth.
Via a pair of e-actions on their website, thousands of emails were sent to Ed Miliband, Gordon Brown and campaigners' local MPs requesting energy policy is rethought.
The coalition are also working with The Age of Stupid team on their Not Stupid campaign.

Famous quotes containing the words energy and/or campaign:
“Three elements go to make up an idea. The first is its intrinsic quality as a feeling. The second is the energy with which it affects other ideas, an energy which is infinite in the here-and-nowness of immediate sensation, finite and relative in the recency of the past. The third element is the tendency of an idea to bring along other ideas with it.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
“The winter is to a woman of fashion what, of yore, a campaign was to the soldiers of the Empire.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
