Abstract

The first lockdown brought about a brief reduction in carbon emissions – but it didn’t last. Ric Williams (University of Liverpool) says that while the pandemic has taught us that drastic cuts in emissions are possible, we now need to take radical action to have any chance of reaching ‘net zero’ by 2050.
