This comes in response to the Climate Change Committee (CCC)\u2019s latest report revealing that there\u2019s \u2018no comprehensive strategy for Scotland to decarbonise towards net-zero\u2019, and as such its statutory goal to reduce 75% emissions by 2030 is beyond achievable.<\/p>\n<p>Scotland was the first government globally to declare a climate emergency. Nevertheless, since that declaration, Scotland has failed to meet eight out of the last 12 yearly targets for reducing its GHG emissions. In December of last year, the Government published its annual budget, stating that Scotland\u2019s ability to fund the low-carbon transition for heat, buildings and transport has been \u201cparticularly impacted\u201d by changes made in Westminster.<\/p>\n<p>This included rollbacks on energy efficiency requirements for landlords, fossil fuel boiler phase-outs and electric vehicle (EV) sales announced by UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak last year. However, leaders in the green economy sector have criticised the Government, asserting that solely blaming Westminster will not drive forward Scotland\u2019s climate progress and emphasising that the Government must take actionable steps within its jurisdiction to expedite its climate efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.edie.net\/bitterly-disappointing-scotland-abandons-2030-climate-goal-citing-credibility-concerns\/\">Edie<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/7-513\/\">\u2018Bitterly disappointing\u2019: Scotland abandons 2030 climate goal citing credibility concerns<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[4416,575,1162],"class_list":["post-129889","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-climate-goal","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-scotland"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129889","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129889"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129889\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129889"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129889"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129889"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
