Dear all,

The new, expanded and updated edition of the "Million Climate Jobs - Solving the Economic and Environmental Crises" pamphlet was launched at a public meeting in parliament today. We hope to circulate a report of the event as soon as possible.

Also launched today is the campaign's new website www.climate-change-jobs.org

You can download an electronic version of the pamphlet from the site, as well as the supporting technical documentation. In the next few days we hope to upload video footage of tonights launch meeting. The site will also be regularly updated with news, articles and events of interest to Trade Unionists and Environmentalists campaigning over climate change - check back often!

Hard copies of the pamphlet can be ordered from Bookmarks, the TUC booksellers. There are discounts for bulk orders - see attached order form.

Many different individuals and organisations have played a role in getting this new edition out, there are too many to thank individually, but I wanted to record my thanks to everyone involved.

I hope you enjoy the new pamphlet and the new website
