Starmer commits to 81% cut in emissions
The Herald
|November 13, 2024
SIR Keir Starmer has committed to cutting UK greenhouse gas emissions by 81% by 2035 - but said he would not be telling people how to live their lives to curb climate change.
-
The new goal, unveiled by the Prime Minister at the UN Cop29 talks in Azerbaijan, is in line with the recommendation from independent advisers the Climate Change Committee (CCC) and with existing legallybinding domestic targets.
This target, which is based on reducing emissions compared with 1990 levels, forms the UK's latest nationally determined contribution (NDC) - a commitment countries make to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions to mitigate climate change.
The new target was welcomed by climate campaigners, who called for clear plans to deliver it.
