Don’t miss this impassioned call to action from Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, as he explains how everyone can play their part in tackling the climate emergency.

With more cities, including Bradford, launching Clean Air Zones (CAZs), it’s an issue that affects us all. In his first book, Breathe, the mayor offers a seven-step guide to winning support for tough action on climate change that draws on his own experience with adult-onset asthma, brought on by the polluted London air he had been breathing for decades.

Since becoming Mayor of London in 2016, Khan has declared a climate emergency, introduced the world’s first Ultra-Low Emission Zone, built hundreds of kilometres of new cycle lanes, led a drive for affordable insulation in council homes, and turned London into the first ever ‘National Park City’.

Now, he shares the seven ways environmental action gets blown off course before revealing how to get it back on track and help create a world where we can all breathe again.
