One of the UK’s most respected environmental leaders, serving as the country’s first Green Party MP from 2010 to 2024 after a decade in the European Parliament, Caroline is a writer and campaigner who continues to shape the conversation around the climate and nature emergency, politics and society. Her Sunday Times bestseller Another England challenges conventional ideas around national identity and political change and explores how society both reflects and is shaped by the stories it tells.
Caroline Lucas is one of the most influential political voices in the modern environmental movement. The UK’s first Green Party MP, she served in Westminster for 14 years following a decade in the European Parliament, and went on to lead and co-lead the Green Party of England and Wales. Over her time in Parliament, she reshaped the national conversation on climate and nature, including placing them in a wider social and economic context. As a writer and campaigner, she continues to challenge political orthodoxy and push wellbeing, environmental justice and long-term thinking to the centre of public debate.
Caroline offers a uniquely accessible and informed perspective on the climate and nature emergencies, the shifting dynamics of modern politics, and the role of communities, businesses and civic institutions in driving change. With clarity, passion and hope, she challenges ideas of what real political and social leadership means in an era of populism, complexity, and existential emergencies.
In her political career, Caroline championed evidence-based policymaking and the power of education to drive cultural transformation. She was instrumental in persuading the Government to introduce a GCSE in Natural History, a vital element in restoring young people’s connection to the natural world. She also played a key role in shifting parliamentary debate on issues ranging from drug policy reform to the impact of extreme heat, forcing urgent questions in the House on topics ministers were reluctant to confront.
Both in frontline politics and beyond, Caroline’s work focuses on the realities of the climate and nature crises and how they intersect with politics, culture and economics. Her leadership has been recognised with honours including topping BBC Radio 4 Woman’s Hour’s One Planet Power List and receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award from the UK’s largest sustainable business awards.
Caroline’s bestselling book, Another England: How to Reclaim Our National Story, argues for a more inclusive and progressive understanding of English identity, grounded in culture, ideas and equality rather than exceptionalism. It demonstrates her belief that stories both shape and reflect society, and that cultural narratives play a fundamental role in enabling collective action on climate. She is a Professor of Practice in Environmental Sustainability at the School of Progressive Futures at the University of Sussex, and is Co-President of the European Movement, an organisation aimed at returning the UK to EU membership. Caroline is also an advisor to several climate and nature organisations, including the Centre for Climate Psychology and the Climate Majority Project, and is a Trustee of the Towner Art Gallery in Eastbourne.
