Summary:imageThis audit of the UK Government’s Climate Change Programme for the SDC by the Edinburgh Centre for Carbon Management examines whether the policies set out in the Programme are likely to achieve the Kyoto target for greenhouse gas emissions, the domestic goal for CO2 emissions, and deeper cuts in carbon emissions beyond 2010. It also considers what contribution current policies and programmes for reducing carbon emissions are likely to make to wider objectives of sustainable development and what further policies and programmes might be required, before 2010 and in the longer term.
