So great to see the CCC’s 7th Carbon Budget published.
It was a pleasure to contribute to this during my time in the lovely People & Business team - & see our @CAST_Centre work referenced 🌟
Importantly: 1/3 of emissions reductions will come from household behaviour change 🤯

We have published our advice on the Seventh Carbon Budget. It is in line with previous Government commitments – the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Carbon Budgets, international commitments, and the Net Zero commitment in 2050.

During my trip to #COP29, it was great to meet @StarkClimate - Head of Mission Control for Clean Power 2030, at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero. I got to ask him about the UK’s role at COP29 and what it means for people living back home in Britain. Follow bout COP29.

Excellent piece by @lwhitmarsh & @samhampton 💭
It's unhelpful to promise we can reach climate targets without 'telling people how to live their lives'.
1. Enabling lifestyle changes is essential
2. The govt should make changes easier & cheaper
3. Action can improve wellbeing🌍

Keir Starmer says the UK can decarbonise without disruption – that’s neither true nor helpful bit.ly/3Z74GsG
