2050 emission reduction target
Analyses a pathway towards achieving
the UK commitment to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80% by 2050 relative to 1990
levels. Central tool for this will be the 2050 Web tool developed by the Department of Energy and
Climate Change (DECC)
https://www.decc.gov.uk/en/content/cms/tackling/2050/calculator_on/calculator_on.aspx .
Develop your own bespoke pathway to reach the 2050 goal.
• a reference list of all sources used, including web sites (make sure all of these references are
in the correct format)
Prepare a brief project report(max 600 words). It should include
a) a concise account of the decision making process
b) a brief assessment of the likely barriers that might be faced when the scenarios would actually be implemented.
c) input your pathway into the 2050 calculator and save, share / include the link to view it online.
