Recommendation 9
9
Paragraph: 66
Measuring total defence carbon emissions provides a gold standard for military reporting.
Conclusion
Measuring and reporting against the total defence carbon emission figure would support both the Government’s agenda of reducing emissions to net zero by 2050, but also provide a gold standard of military emissions reporting for other countries to emulate. Good practice would be to ensure these figures are independently verified.
