We welcome the 2030 ban on petrol & diesel vehicles
Cutting emissions rapidly means #EVs need to make up half of all new cars by 2025 & almost all sales by 2030
We need incentives & regulation to achieve this

Emissions from buildings need to be halved by 2035, says @theCCCUK
This can be achieved through energy efficiency, clean heat and a ban on gas boilers
Rapid scale up is needed in the 2020s
This will help create over 200,000 new jobs across the country

We’re delighted that resource efficiency is finally moving centre stage
This has been the UK’s missing climate policy
We worked with the folks at @CIEMAP to highlight the importance of resource efficiency in reducing emissions

The report recognises we can’t just go for more low carbon #energy supply
An energy system fit for the future means cutting demand for energy too
Using energy & resources more wisely also has other benefits, eg improved public health

Consumption emissions are now an important part of the picture
We can’t just focus on what we produce, it's also about our global footprint as consumers too
The report shows working along global supply chains could cut UK consumption emissions in 2050 by up to 90%

Action must happen now!
We need to build on @BorisJohnson's ten point plan and the newly announced 2030 NDC
The government should embrace the level of ambition proposed by @theCCCUK, put it in law and set policy to kickstart action now
