The Government says we’ve cut emissions by 42%, or that we only contribute 1% of global emissions, but those figures don't include our emissions from international flights, shipping, and the carbon cost of products we have produced for us in other countries.

China’s emissions are roughly the same as the rest of the developed world.

The UK’s historic emissions are 5 and a half times more than China’s

China generates more energy through renewables than the UK with 6.3% of their total energy supply through wind, solar and hydro compared to 4.4% in the UK

A rise of 4C , which the committee on Climate Change also says we are heading towards, will lead to the complete desertification of anything below the 50th parallel

The Climate Change committee’s assessment is that many more jobs - hundreds of thousands - would be created than lost by a rapid transition to clean energy.

The International Energy Agency: “to reach net-zero by 2050, no new fossil fuel projects are needed”

To improve energy security, the UK government must act to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels, rather than incentivising further development of fuels which will be sold on the open market and will not affect the price we pay.

Renewables are at present 9 times cheaper than fossil fuel generated energy

Alok Sharma: “The government has said the Offshore licensing bill is about protecting energy security. But the reality is, the oil and gas extracted from the North Sea is owned by private companies - the government doesn’t get to control who they sell to.”

Under the pathway to net zero emissions recommended by the UK Climate Change Committee, the cost of this transition is estimated at less than 1% of GDP over 30 years

“The costs of failing to get climate change under control would be much larger than those of bringing emissions down to net zero.”

Price Waterhouse Cooper’s research paper on jobs in the energy transition has concluded that, by 2030, 270,000 skilled workers from the fossil fuel sectors will likely be out of work

400,000 jobs will be needed in low-carbon energy sectors
