Green economy workers: how will the UK’s net zero U-turns affect you? | Renewable energy

Prime minister Rishi Sunak has in recent weeks watered down key targets in the UK’s drive to becoming net zero carbon in response to the climate crisis.

Sunak attracted condemnation from environmental experts in September for pushing back the deadlines for selling new petrol and diesel cars and the phasing out of gas boilers.

It came after Sunak pledged over summer to “max out” the UK’s oil and gas reserves and revealed a new round of intensive North Sea drilling.

We want to hear from people working in the UK’s green economy – such as wind and solar power, manufacturers of electric vehicles, home energy efficiency and more – about their views on Sunak’s U-turns.

What do you think about Sunak’s policies? What does it mean for you? How will it affect the UK’s green economy?
