The Sustainable Consumption Roundtable (SCR) says people need a clear lead from government. Dundee LibDem local party Secretary Michael Charlton said today (Tuesday 2nd May), "This is to be greatly welcomed. The Labour government has given too little real regard to issues of sustainability."
"The Roundtable is right to say people need help to make green decisions. That is why it is such a cop-out for Labour and the Tories not to support raising environmental taxes."
