Rishi Sunak considering weakening key net zero policies
By Henry Zeffman & Chris Mason & Brian WheelerBBC News
Rishi Sunak is considering weakening some of the government's key net zero commitments in a major policy shift.
It could include delaying a ban on the sales of new petrol and diesel cars and phasing out gas boilers, multiple sources have told The Bbc .
The PM is preparing to set out The Changes in a speech in The Coming days.
There is no suggestion that Mr Sunak is considering abandoning the legal commitment to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
But he is expected to declare that other countries need to bear more of The Burden of dealing with Climate Change .
If Mr Sunak presses ahead with The Plan it would represent a significant shift in the Conservative Party 's approach to net zero policy, as well as establishing a clear dividing line with the Labour Party .
According to multiple sources briefed on Downing Street's thinking, Mr Sunak would use The Speech to hail the UK as a world leader on net zero.
But he would also argue that Britain has over-delivered on confronting Climate Change and that other countries need to do more to pull their weight.
Some specifics of The Speech are still thought to be under discussion, but as it stands it could include as many as seven core policy changes or commitments, documents seen by The Bbc suggest.
First, the government would push the ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars - currently set to come into force in 2030 - Back to 2035. The 2030 date has been government policy since 2020.
Second, the government would significantly weaken The Plan to phase out the installation of gas boilers by 2035, saying that they only want 80% to be phased out by that year.
Third, homeowners and landlords would be told that there will be no New Energy efficiency regulations on homes. Ministers had been considering imposing fines on landlords who fail to upgrade their properties to a certain level of energy efficiency.
Fourth, the 2026 ban on off-grid oil boilers will be delayed to 2035, with only an 80% phase out target at that date.
In addition, Britons will be told that there will be no new taxes to discourage flying; no government policies to change people's diets; and no measures to encourage carpooling.
Mr Sunak is also likely to rule out what he sees as burdensome recycling schemes.
The government had reportedly been considering a recycling strategy in which there would have been a " seven bins" Plan - with six separate recycling bins Plus One for general waste.
On Thursday, The King will be on a State Visit to France, where he will host what is known as a Climate Mobilisation Forum.
The Event convenes specialists in climate finance, and aims to help developing economies make adjustments to cut emissions.
The King will be accompanied by Foreign Secretary James Cleverly .
