| Summary: |  In 2006 the Environmental Audit Committee ran an inquiry into the Government's Climate Change programme. The SDC's submission to the inquiry includes suggestions on how the Government could meet its 2010 target of a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions, and questions how the 2006 Energy Review will affect the implementation of the Climate Change Programme. |
| Recommendations: | The submission concludes that the programme is not sufficient to prepare the UK to meet the challenge of climate change. |
