… emissions and usage by encouraging modal shift and accelerating the transition to low carbon transport is integral to decarbonisation and improving air quality. Decarbonising road transport is a national ambition. The proposed regulatory framework (recently under consultation May 2023) for new car and van emissions is a devolved policy area under the Climate Change Act 2008, meaning…

… pollutants. Plastic waste produces greenhouse gas emissions during every stage of its lifecycle. The extraction and transportation of plastic is dependent on oil, gas, and coal. The production and disposal of plastics also release carbon emissions. The Action Plan includes policy commitments around the introduction of separate food waste collections and implementation of emerging government…
… sustainable food policies can be a significant factor in carbon emissions reduction. Food system activities, including producing food, transporting it, and storing wasted food in landfills, produce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that contribute to climate change. Of these sources, livestock production is the largest, accounting for an estimated 14.5 percent of global GHG emissions. Meat from…
