UK Court Cliamte Change Act- not enough detail
Jul 21st, 2022 at 12:26pm
 
"Campaigners have hailed a High Court ruling that the government's 'net zero' strategy breaches its obligations under the Climate Change Act.

The strategy commits the UK to slash emissions of the greenhouse gases that are warming the planet to reach 'net zero' emissions by 2050.

The court ruled there was not enough detail on how the target would be met.

The judgment during the UK's first red alert for heat ordered the government to deliver a new report to Parliament.

The government said in response that its net zero strategy was still official policy and noted that the strategy itself had not been quashed by the court.

    What is net zero and how are the UK and other countries doing?
    Climate change: Is the UK on track to meet its targets?
    Tory leadership race: Where do candidates stand on net zero goal?

The legal challenge was brought by environmental groups Friends of the Earth, ClientEarth, Good Law Project and environmental campaigner Jo Wheatley.

I wonder how much detail is in the soon to be mandated 43% reduction in our Act?
