Carbon Budget

Latest science and international commitments set parameters for UK efforts to tackle climate change

 

The UK’s goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80% in 2050 remains in line with the international commitment to 2°C, the Committee on Climate Change says today. The UK must also agree reductions to 2030 as part of its “fifth carbon budget”. A reduction in emissions beyond those currently agreed for the mid-2020s is consistent with the UK’s cost-effective path to 2050, and with scientific and international developments.
