My point, so far as I had one, is that caring is doing, not making virtue signalling gestures. Declaring a climate emergency is a gesture, nothing more.
I eat tofu now and again as Mrs G is vegetarian.

Instead of criticising maybe try supporting.

Declaring a climate emergency signals that the elected members of Leeds City Council recognise there is an issue. The declaration is the start of a change in policies/practices and direction so a bit more than a gesture, but yes in the whole scheme of things anything done will only make a very small impact but if every local authority follows - remember even the mightiest river starts from a few drops of rain.
