At the CACCTU climate jobs summit, John Moloney PCS, Asst Gen Sec of PCS Union says his union is trying to embark on 'green bargaining'. But we need to define it more, so beyond recycling. Real marker of progress would be balloting on green issues, strike action.

CACCTU conference today down in London, great turnout!
Looking forward to the sessions and learning from the activists here, and to be able to contribute to the discussions on behalf of BFAWU

Kicking off today’s conference - Climate Justice, Climate Jobs: What struggles do we need to win and how?
