Climate Change: Behaviour Change

Lord Cormack Excerpts

Thursday 3rd November 2022 Lords Chamber

[Lord Callanan (Con)]

I cannot give the noble Baroness a precise date but we do a lot of work on skills. I outlined some of the skills strategies that we have adopted to the noble Lord but it is also, of course, not just about what the Government are doing. There is some great work being done in the private sector as well. I have attended a number of workshops and training academies run by, for instance, various heat-pump manufacturers to upskill plumbers and others in the new technologies of installing low-carbon heat sources.

[Lord Cormack (Con)]

My Lords, while I understand that my noble friend does not want to tell people what to eat, could the Government not encourage people, particularly at this time of year, to eat more game, which is nutritious, low in cholesterol and delicious?

[Lord Callanan (Con)]

The noble Lord has made the point and I am sure the watching millions will be fascinated to know of his support for the game industry.
