The road forward to a Net Zero 2050
In one of her last acts as prime minister, Theresa May confirmed that parliament will implement the recommendations of the Committee on Climate Change, creating a legally binding net-zero carbon target for 2050. This begins the conversation on how and what technology we use to meet these targets.
