Green Britain: Assessing Year One of Labour’s Environmental Agenda
As the UK marks one year under a Labour government, it’s time to take stock of where we stand on climate policy and environmental priorities. With the latest budget released in June and growing pressure on the government to deliver on its green promises, this timely thought leadership event—explores the current direction of the UK’s green agenda.
We’ll examine what progress has been made, where ambition meets reality, and what lies ahead for businesses, policymakers, and the public. From energy and infrastructure to decarbonisation and net zero targets, this session will provide critical insight and spark debate about the future of the UK’s environmental strategy.
Key Themes:
- One year of Labour: progress on green pledges
- Implications of the 2025 Budget for climate policy
- Industry readiness and investment priorities
- Challenges and opportunities in the road to net zero
