    CCC’s Sixth Carbon Budget a ‘missed opportunity’, says GVN
    The Gas Vehicle Network, GVN, has expressed disappointment at the Climate Change Committee’s report on the Sixth Carbon Budget. The report, which calls for rapid decarbonisation of transport, overlooked the potential for widely available biofuels, including renewable gas, to slash emissions from heavy goods vehicles, which account for a disproportionate share of the UK’s transport emissions.
