Tuesday 14th October 2025 Commons Chamber

[Tom Hayes (Bournemouth East) (Lab)]

12. What steps he is taking to increase co-operation with other countries to tackle climate change.

[Warinder Juss (Wolverhampton West) (Lab)]

18. What discussions he has had with his international counterparts on tackling climate change.

[The Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero (Ed Miliband)]

In the best traditions of the UK, we see it as our duty to work with other countries to tackle the climate crisis and protect future generations. It was British leadership that saw the Climate Change Act 2008 emulated in 60 countries across the world, and it was the leadership of the UK at COP26 that now sees 80% of global GDP covered by net zero. We will maintain that tradition of leadership into COP30 in Brazil and beyond.
