What happened to the UK’s environment plan?
As our politicians ready themselves for a general election with new manifestos for a better future, what does this mean for earlier promises and, in particular, Defra’s delayed 25-year environment plan?
The government set out its aims for the plan in its 2015 Conservative Party manifesto. The stated aim of the plan was to ensure the next generation inherits a better environment than the one we live in today, with cleaner air, water and seas, healthier wildlife, a low carbon economy and greater resource efficiency. The plan was originally due for release in December 2016.
