<p>As we recover from COVID-19, the Government intends to deliver a UK economy which
is stronger, cleaner, more sustainable and more resilient.</p><p>The UK has shown
that growing our economy and cutting emissions can be achieved at the same time. We
have grown our economy by 75% while cutting emissions by 43% over the past three decades.
Low carbon businesses and their supply chains support hundreds of thousands of existing
jobs and will be key to future job growth.Many of the actions we need to take to reach
our target of net zero emissions by 2050 will support the future growth of our economy.</p><p>The
Government recently launched a £40 million venture capital fund to supercharge the
development of next generation clean, low-carbon technologies, and since lockdown
was announced, we have published the first stage of our Transport Decarbonisation
plan and have announced a £2 billion package for cycling and walking.</p>
