The UK government has issued its plan for decarbonising all sectors of the UK economy through the 2020s. The strategy aims to show “how the whole country can benefit from low carbon opportunities, while meeting national and international commitments to tackle climate change.” The paper also states that progress towards developing a more sustainable economy means that there are now more than 430,000 jobs in low carbon businesses and their supply chains in the UK.
