The Scottish Government Draft Climate Change Plan includes the policies and proposals that Scotland needs to end our contribution to increasing global emissions and deliver real benefits for people across Scotland – warmer homes, better air quality, and the health benefits of active travel – to support people in our communities to live longer, healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Last year, the Scottish Government invited views on the Plan by responding to a consultation. The Scottish Government is determined to deliver a fair transition to net zero, and we are guaranteed to have more success working collaboratively as part of a national endeavour.
We welcome the opportunity to engage with the Scottish Government on its Draft Climate Change Plan, and we would be happy to follow-up on any aspects of our submission. While we have responded on a sectoral basis to many of the questions, it is vital to maintain a whole system view of energy transitions and decarbonisation of the economy, alongside detailed sectoral analysis.
