Climate Change
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what scientific evidence his Department is using to inform its work on climate change.
Answered by Ed Miliband
This Department’s approach is founded on the best scientific evidence which, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, says that ambitious action to reach net zero by mid-century is essential to limiting warming to as low as possible. Our in-house team of scientists ensure robust scientific advice supports our climate and energy policy.
