<p>The UK has been working closely with Egypt and the UAE, as incoming COP27 and COP28
Presidencies, with the UNFCCC Secretariat and other international organisations, to
ensure commitments and agreements made at COP26 are built upon and delivered. The
UK remains committed to playing a leadership role on the global stage tackling climate
Change.</p><p>The UK is showing global leadership on reducing our methane emissions,
cutting emissions across energy, waste and agriculture by just over 60 percent since
1990, more than any other OECD country.</p><p>The UK will continue to implement domestic
methane emissions reductions as we strive to meet our net zero target by 2050. For
example, as set out in the Net Zero Strategy we are exploring policies to work towards
the near elimination of biodegradable municipal waste to landfill by 2028. Building
on our commitments under the Global Methane Pledge, we will publish a methane memorandum
by the end of the year.</p><p> </p>
