British High Commissioner to Australia, Vicki Treadell, said:
“The UK is proud to take a lead in the global effort to tackle climate change. As we continue to manage the impact of coronavirus, we must build back better to ensure a sustainable future for generations to come. As we look towards the challenges facing us, it is clear
that governments need to work hand in hand with businesses and civil society. Only together can we meet the commitment we have made under the Paris agreement to limit global temperature rises to as close to 1.5 degrees as possible. I’m delighted that we, the UK Government in Australia, are working with a range of partners to reduce emissions while building our future prosperity.”
