Global warming, or climate change, is an increase in the earth’s atmospheric temperature since the late nineteenth century. In politics, the debate over global warming is centered on whether this increase in temperature is due to greenhouse gas emissions or is the result of a natural pattern in the earth’s temperature. In 2022 the U.K. Prime Minister pledged that the UK will triple funding for climate change adaptation programmes from £500 million in 2019 to £1.5 billion in 2025.

No, until global initiatives fro decreasing carbon emissions are adopted by China, Russia, India, etc., all attempts to reduce carbon emissions in the UK are futile to have a global impact.

Make it achievable for small businesses, cost to go zero carbon is unattainable for the regular person
@9P543GC5 days5D
isn't carbon essential to the survival of plants and therefore essential to produce oxygen? find the right balance and regulate accordingly, but do what you say you will do. There is no point in regulations that have no actions or consequence for those who don't follow them
