Accelerating Net Zero delivery

March 15, 2022

A new Innovate UK report “Accelerating Net Zero Delivery – Unlocking the benefits of climate action in UK city-regions” explores the economic and social value of locally tailored approaches. The report compares the benefits of place-specific and place-agnostic approaches and shows better outcomes when places tailor their net zero delivery to the needs and opportunities of the area. The report highlights relatively higher per capita transport emission in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough compared to the other city-regions considered and that participants in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough felt policies still prioritised cars over active travel or public transport.
