To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the recommendations of the report by Zero Hour, Net Zero: The Ambition Gap, published on 10 August 2022.
Answered on

The Government sees fighting climate change as a priority and has already taken actions to address it while delivering for communities through its Clean Energy Superpower mission, for example by delivering 131 clean energy projects powering the equivalent of 11 million homes at the Sixth renewables auction. The level of our Sixth Carbon Budget, which the Climate Change Committee recommended, aligns with the temperature goal of the Paris Agreement.
This Government will set out how it intends to deliver these commitments in its response to the Climate Change Committee Progress report in the autumn and its updated Carbon Budget Delivery Plan in spring next year.
