The Bill is a key part of the EU’s European Green Deal which seeks to establish the world’s most ambitious climate and biodiversity targets.
This is to restore 20% of the EUs land and sea area, with binding targets for certain species by 2030. So this is absolutly massive and a huge step in the right direction.
Somewhat amusing it’s reported by a UK newspaper, although the one and only comment on the website “Oh no, not more nonsense about the CO2 Climate Fairy Tale.” sums up the UK governments attitude
To be honest the Tories climate policy has been surprisingly good. 5.15t per capita for the UK in CO2 emissions is pretty good considering global per capita emissions are at 4.69t per capita and the UK is a rich country. You also have to give them credit for putting values over economic grwoth. Singapore on the Thames has not brought solarpunk architecture, but most certainly the idea of a weird form of degrowth to the UK.
