have grown our economy by over 70% since 1990. The UK over-achieved against the first
and second carbon budgets, and the latest projections show that we are on track to
meet the third.</p><p> </p><p>We have one of the most ambitious decarbonisation targets
in the world, and we have set more stretching targets for 2030 than most countries.
