<p>The UK carbon budgets set in legislation are among the most stringent in the world,
with the fifth carbon budget requiring a 57% cut in emissions by 2028-2032 from a
1990 baseline.</p><p> </p><p>The Clean Growth Strategy sets out our plans to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions through to 2032, showing one possible pathway for meeting
the fifth carbon budget through domestic action.</p><p> </p><p>Projections show that
we are on track to deliver over 90% of our required performance against 1990 levels
for the fourth and fifth carbon budgets, even before many of the policies and proposals
in the Clean Growth Strategy are taken into account.</p><p> </p><p>Our progress in
delivering on the ambitious policies and proposals set out in the Clean Growth Strategy–
across housing, business, transport, the natural environment and green finance - is
set out in detail in the Government Response to the Committee on Climate Change’s
Annual Progress Report to Parliament. This includes an assessment of progress against
key actions and milestones.</p>
