Answer from Hansard

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero (Kerry McCarthy)

Yesterday, the Secretary of State made an incredibly important statement to this House outlining the crises we face when it comes to climate change and the decline of nature. Tackling this starts with being honest about the science and what the experts are telling us. We know that we can only have climate security for future generations by acting at scale today.
