Glasgow’s CO2 emissions dropped by more than 13% in 2020, new data has revealed – but the figures come with “strong caveats” as covid lockdowns changed daily life.
The research shows emissions were down 50% on 2006, however, Glasgow’s climate convener, Cllr Angus Millar, said there is “no room for complacency” against the threat posed by the climate emergency.
He said the city needs to minimise the ‘bounce back’ after the pandemic as much as possible.
