As the UK carefully emerges from lockdown, attention is turning to how we rebuild our economy. Whilst we continue to fight against the virus, we are presented with an opportunity to deliver action that will help deal with a longer-term, but just as urgent crisis – climate change.
The CBI has written to the Prime Minister with recommendations on how to ‘Build Back Better’. Central to this was a call to deliver investment into the green economy, which will help create new, sustainable jobs that also support the pressing need to decarbonise our society.
