<p>Leaving the EU does not change the UK's commitment to domestic and international
action to tackle climate change. On 27 June, the UK became the first major economy
in the world to set a legally binding target to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions
from across the UK economy by 2050. We will continue to work closely with our European
and other international partners to secure ambitious climate objectives. We will do
this through continued cooperation in multilateral groups - including the UNFCCC,
G7, G20, the Commonwealth and the International Energy Agency – as well as continued
strong bilateral relationships on climate with countries around the world. Our recent
bid to host COP26 in 2020, under a UK Presidency in partnership with Italy, demonstrates
our continued commitment to play a global leadership role in galvanising action on
climate change.</p>
