CCC's Progress Report 2020 - Comment by Green Alliance

“MPs and Ministers have a lot of reading to do – this is an important and urgent report. We’re at a critical juncture in our national efforts to address climate change and host a successful UN climate conference next year, while at the same time responding to coronavirus. The current crisis has helped to highlight how limited our planning is for the major disruptions that climate change will bring to the UK economy. The CCC is right to demand more from government. The next year will require real leadership and planning across a wide range of fronts if we are to rise to these complex and interlinked challenges. We cannot afford another year of stalling, patchy progress and half-developed policies.”
