Nicola Sturgeon has been urged to act on reducing emissions in Scotland as she prepares to join other world leaders at the Cop27 climate conference in Egypt next week.
Stop Climate Chaos Scotland, a coalition of 60 environmental groups, said Scotland must make its action on reducing its own emissions live up to its words since the First Minister won international recognition for her leadership at Cop26 in Glasgow last year.
The Scottish Government is expected to release a new paper at Cop27 on loss and damage finance, which will outline funds needed to address the impacts of climate change that cannot be avoided by reducing emissions or adapting to rising temperatures. It follows the First Minister chairing an international conference in Scotland on the issue last month.
Top news stories today “We need to see more Government investment in activities that both reduce emissions and alleviate the cost-of-living crisis, such as cheaper or free public transport, accelerated efforts to insulate buildings and faster development of community energy schemes. “Scotland isn’t an official party to the UN talks, but we still have an opportunity to set a strong and credible example to those who are and demonstrate the leadership on climate the world so urgently needs.”
