Peers say more investment in research is needed to meet UK government’s net-zero target
Peers have called on the government to urgently invest in more research on nature-based solutions to climate change or risk missing its 2050 net-zero carbon emissions target.
Nature-based solutions refer to actions that help tackle climate change, such as enhancing biodiversity and alleviating flood risk, with the government previously committing to such approaches.
