AT A recent Prime Minister’s Questions, Jeremy Corbyn revealed new analysis by Labour that shows the government is set to woefully miss its climate targets by almost 50 years.
This means that, contrary to boasts from Theresa May and Boris Johnson that the Tories are committed to tackling the climate emergency, if progress continues at its current rate the government target of reaching “net zero” carbon emissions by 2050 will not be met until 2099.
Specifically, emission reduction has slowed to a crawl in recent years, with the amount of carbon released falling only 1.5 per cent in 2018 — less than half the fall of 3.2 per cent in 2017.
