The Climate Emergency Response Group has issued a 12-point plan of the actions that the Scottish government should implement to counteract the impact of climate change. Published on Monday 26 August, actions include assembling £11bn of annual public procurement to support the product and service innovation the climate emergency response needs; initiating four Green City Region Deals; signal that every city centre should be vehicle emission free by 2030; enhance building standards to deliver zero-carbon homes and buildings, accelerate Scotland’s energy efficiency retrofit scheme and to establish a public-interest company to invest in and operate Carbon Capture and Storage infrastructure.
