The UK has announced plans to phase out fossil fuel-utilised warming by 2035, while the government was hosting a meeting aimed at attracting billions of dollars in unknown investment for green projects in the UK.
The United Kingdom will host the UN’s COP26 climate talks later this month in Glasgow, Scotland, which will aim to reinforce global action to counter global warming.
The Prime Minister also said the UK will cease heating energy from fossil fuels by 2035 as part of its 2050 target to take net carbon emissions for the world by ‘zero’.
The Prime Minister, who once expressed scepticism about climate change, unveiled his 368-page strategy as a document placing the UK among the world’s green economies.
The Prime Minister said that Britain had a responsibility to lead the world in decarbonisation since it was the birthplace of the industrial revolution.
The “net-zero” approach essentially consists of a set of long-term promises aimed at propelling the world’s fifth largest economy towards green technology – from switchover to clean electricity “subject to security and supply” to “setting a path” to heating UK households.
The Government said on Tuesday that the new gas boilers won’t be installed beyond 2035, and that starting next year households will be able to get subsidies worth about 5.000 pounds“( $7.000) to replace gas boilers with low-carbon heat pumps.
