THE FIVE KEY TARGETS OF FOE'S GREEN X CODE
  • Provide every household with quality doorstep recycling ensuring no new incinerators are needed and half our waste is recycled by 2010.
  • Treble investment in buses and traffic-calming by 2005 so that everyone has access to regular public transport and can live in a safe street.
  • Make biotech companies responsible for any harm caused by GM crops and food by introducing strict liability legislation.
  • Protect the world’s climate by cutting CO2 emissions by 20% and generating 20% of electricity from renewables by 2010.
  • Make businesses accountable to society by requiring Directors to report on, and take into account, their environmental and social impacts.
