At the COP 26 conference in Glasgow next year, the US is certain to submit a more ambitious target than us for 2030, having already committed to the same target as us—26 to 28 per cent below 2005 levels—five years earlier than us, by 2025. Furthermore, European countries have already committed to increasing their ambition to 55 per cent below 1990 pollution levels by 2030. Will the government commit to stronger, more ambitious 2030 targets ahead of COP 26?
