Manchester plans £100m projects to meet 2038 carbon zero goal

Manchester is planning £100m worth of environmental projects to address slower-than-hoped progress towards its 2038 carbon zero target. The city has seen a 23% drop in emissions since 2018, significantly missing the 55% cut aimed for over this timeframe. Officials acknowledged they are not cutting emissions at the required pace, despite identifying about £1bn in overall schemes.
