The UK was the first major industrialised nation to set Net Zero into law – now we have policy plans to get us there. Ministers have made the big decisions – to decarbonise the power sector by 2035, to phase out petrol and diesel vehicles, to back heat pumps for homes. And they have proposed policies to do it. I applaud their ambition.
