Net-zero solutions and research priorities in the 2020s

To meet the UK’s 2050 net-zero target, technological, societal, and nature-based solutions will be required to reduce carbon emissions in all sectors of our economy and society.

This briefing sets out a vision of plausible net-zero solutions, innovations and research priorities across eight different sectors to highlight, based on the available evidence, what we already know and what still requires further research, as well as what actions we need to take now.
