This chapter looks at the histories of the three cases we will analyze in this book: the Big Ask campaign that called on the government to pass a law creating greenhouse gas emission reduction targets; the campaign against a third runway proposed at Heathrow Airport which, if constructed, would increase emissions from aviation; and the campaign for a green investment bank that would increase the financing for climate change mitigation efforts. Below you will find the history of each campaign, including key actors, tactics, and policy developments. These case histories will provide us with the necessary background to answer the following questions: What outcomes did the campaigns produce? When were conditions ripe for the campaigns to achieve outcomes? and How were the campaigns able to achieve these outcomes?
