Scotland’s Climate Assembly release Civic Charter of recommendations on how to tackle climate crisis

SCOTLAND’S Climate Assembly has released a Civic Charter of recommendations on how the country can tackle the climate emergency. 

With 10 days to go until the UN Cop26 climate summit in Glasgow the group of campaigners, chosen to represent different aspects of Scottish society, have put forward 81 proposals which they claim would reduce emissions in a fair way. 

Their recommendations include the introduction of a four-day working week, the banning of single-use packaging and efforts to make homes more energy efficient.
