<p>The Government set out how we would meet our commitments in the Net Zero Strategy
in 2021 which included a detailed breakdown of actions required across all sectors
in the economy. This was updated in 2023 through the publication of ‘Powering Up Britain’.</p><p>The
UK has halved its emissions, ahead of every other major economy, and we 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>We
have one of the most ambitious decarbonisation targets in the world, and we have set
more stretching targets for 2030 than most countries. We plan to cut emissions by
68% by 2030, which is more than the EU, Japan or the United States.</p><p> </p>
