Conclusion
Public participation is an essential delivery requirement for the Seventh Carbon Budget, not a communications add-on. As decarbonisation increasingly depends on decisions taken by households and communities, public consent must be sustained through consistent leadership, honest explanation of trade-offs, and genuine two-way engagement that is rooted in credible, practical policy and visibly improves everyday life. (Conclusion, Paragraph 137)
