THE Climate Change Committee has declared that it no longer finds the Scottish Government’s Net Zero plan to be credible.

Good evening! This week's edition of the In Common newsletter comes from Craig Dalzell, Common Weal's head of policy and research.​It also stated that the Government will breach its statutory duty to reduce carbon emissions by 2030 by 75% and that instead of there being a comprehensive strategy to reach net zero, the best we have is a series of ad hoc, disconnected announcements.by not publishing the expected carbon impact of its policies, in line with those statutory targets.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is clear that every fraction of a degree of warming averted matters but that every fraction of a degree that we fail to avert will result in even more costs in terms of mitigation – with Scotland being the pioneer of state-led loss and damage compensation to those affected byNor is it even true. The damage is here, now. The costs are mounting.

What is clear from the CCC’s report though is that settling for anything less than something as ambitious as the Common Home Plan will be even more expensive, will lead to lower living conditions and won’t even meet our legally binding goal to protect the climate. An option even worse than that is to do what we’re currently doing: pretending to take enough action and failing to do even that.
