Environment Bill Reaction

“For those people who are concerned that coming out of the EU might mean some dilution of environmental standards - this is way tougher than anything in the EU at the moment. We are going to be world leaders in environmental protection, and I absolutely support that.”

My take on the Environment Bill which supports recent legislation to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 (hopefully, much sooner) - by minimising our waste, cleaning our air and water and restoring habitats to allow plants and wildlife to thrive.
