✍️ Two councils in the UK, Durham and West Northamptonshire, are expected to scrap their climate pledges and net zero targets after being taken over by the Reform UK party.
👉 Durham county council's deputy leader has proposed a motion to rescind the council's 2019 declaration of a climate emergency 👉 West Northamptonshire council is expected to become the first Reform-led authority to scrap net zero targets 👉 The move has been criticized by climate experts and opposition parties 👉 The councils had previously been recognized for their work in reducing emissions and had set targets to become net zero by 2030
