Summary

This consultation paper takes an overview of the challenge facing the United Kingdom. It seeks to establish the consensus that needs to underpin the UK's approach and explains the nature of the commitments undertaken in Kyoto. It describes the framework of central government policy within which the UK reduction targets will be met; discusses their assessment of the task ahead; considers a wide range of policy options that could be used to deliver emission reductions; and provides a first assessment of the costs, benefits and practicality of potential savings in emissions. It seeks views on the best way forward.
