LABOUR and the Greens have set out plans for a transition towards a greener economy ahead of May’s Scottish Parliament elections. 

Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar announced today that his party would put housing upgrades at the heart of its environmental strategy, including free bus travel for under-25s. 

The party’s climate recovery plan, which Mr Sarwar dubbed “green Labour,” was backed as a key policy plank to win over the support of those who value environmental concerens highly.
