Climate crisis hits Holyrood as targets ditched
Scotland climate

THE climate crisis has turned into a political crisis for the SNP-Green Scottish government after it made the “the worst environmental decision in the history of the Scottish Parliament.”

SNP net zero secretary Mairi McAllan has announced that the government would drop its key goal of reducing carbon emissions by 75 per cent by 2030.

The move comes just weeks after the statutory climate change committee slammed the Scottish government for missing almost all its climate change targets and branded those remaining as “beyond credible.”
