So great to see the CCC’s 7th Carbon Budget published. It was a pleasure to contribute to this during my time in the lovely People & Business team - & see our @CAST_Centre work referenced 🌟 Importantly: 1/3 of emissions reductions will come from household behaviour change 🤯
We have published our advice on the Seventh Carbon Budget. It is in line with previous Government commitments – the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Carbon Budgets, international commitments, and the Net Zero commitment in 2050.
