Climate Change and Nature Conservation

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he plans to implement the 2030 Strategic framework for international climate and nature action.

Answered by Anneliese Dodds

This Government is already delivering on many of the aims of the previous 2030 Strategic Framework, while stepping up our ambition. I was proud to join UK Ministers showing leadership at COP29, where the Prime Minister announced our ambitious 2035 emissions reduction target, and the Foreign Secretary reaffirmed our climate commitment including our £11.6 billion climate finance goal. At home, we have already removed the de facto ban on new onshore wind in England, secured a record-breaking number of new renewable electricity projects, and have set out legislation to establish Great British Energy.
