Chris Stark, chief executive of the Climate Change Committee, has criticised the Prime Minister's record on climate actionChris Stark is due to step down as chief executive of the Climate Change Committee, the independent body set up in 2008, at the end of April.
The Government remains formally committed to reaching net zero by 2050, but has weakened targets on home insulation and phasing out gas boilers.In his speech in October, Mr Sunak said the changes were a more “pragmatic, proportionate, and realistic approach to meeting net zero” that reduced the burden on the public.
In his interview with the BBC, Mr Stark said the Scottish Government’s decision to remove some of its own climate change targets provided a “salutary lesson”. Mairi McAllen, Scotland’s Net Zero Secretary, confirmed on Thursday that the 2030 target had been abandoned as it was now “out of reach”.
