Net Zero
Net zero refers to the balance between the amount of greenhouse gas produced and the amount removed from the atmosphere. We reach net zero when the amount we add is no more than the amount taken away.
What is the Net Zero Strategy?
It is a UK government strategy that sets out plans to reduce climate-wrecking emissions and decarbonise all sectors of the UK economy, from transport to agriculture.
Some of the key policies outlined included a pledge to power the UK on green electricity by 2035 and a ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030. A pledge was made to make the UK a “world leader in zero emissions flight” through use of sustainable aviation fuel.
