SCOTLAND’S climate emissions have reduced but progress has continued to slow, prompting environmental campaigners to urge ministers to take action.

The amount of greenhouse gases produced by Scotland in 2024 fell by 1% compared to the previous year. It is almost half of the reduction seen in 2023 when emissions fell by 1.9%.
