Action in the UK - UK Climate Change Programme 2000

The UK's Climate Change Programme was published in November 2000 and a review was launched in September 2004. The Programme detailed how the UK plans to deliver its Kyoto target to cut its greenhouse gas emissions by 12.5%, and move towards its domestic goal to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 20% below 1990 levels by 2010.
