Net Zero News – Late March 2025
Estimated reading time 1 minute
The Government has today (25 March) been ordered by the High Court to publish an updated carbon delivery plan that would meet the requirements of the Fourth and Sixth Carbon Budgets, after ruling that a previous plan introduced by the Conservative Government was unlawful.
In May 2024 the High Court ruled the UK Government’s climate action plan unlawful due to its overreliance on ‘risky technologies’ and lack of clarity on how it will meet its net-zero emissions targets by 2050.
