<p>The Government is convinced of the need for urgent action on climate change, which
is why we asked the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) for advice last October on the
implications of the Paris Agreement for the UK’s long-term emissions reduction targets,
including on setting a net zero target.</p><p> </p><p>The CCC published their advice
to Government on 2 May 2019. It sets out a path for the UK to become the first major
economy to legislate to end our contribution to global warming entirely. We are studying
the CCC’s comprehensive, ground-breaking report, and are committed to responding in
due course.</p>
