Commenting on news that former Friends of the Earth campaigner Bryony Worthington has been made a Labour peer, Friends of the Earth's Policy and Campaigns Director, Craig Bennett said on Friday, November 19, 2010: "We're delighted that Bryony has been made a peer.
"Bryony was one of the key architects of a Friends of the Earth's campaign that led to the introduction of the Climate Change Act - setting the world's first legally-binding cuts in UK emissions.
"Her commitment to tackling climate change is second to none, and her persistence and drive are legendary.
"She will be a huge asset to UK politics at a time when political parties must up their game on climate change - hopefully this is a sign that the Opposition is going to press the Government hard."
