The UK only has credible plans to achieve 19 per cent of the remaining carbon emissions cuts needed to meet it’s legally-binding target for 2037, according to a report by its own climate change adviser.

The Climate Change Committee also found plans to make up a further 33 per cent of the shortfall have “some risks”- while plans for the other 46 per cent are classed as either having “significant risks” or simply being “insufficient”.

Britain is only forecast to achieve just over half of the remaining emissions cuts required to hit its 2030 target.
