In build up to the UK legally binding target of ‘net zero’ by 2050 (as mandated by the Climate Change Act 2008) a number of changes will need to occur to transport, buildings, industry, CO₂ removal & gases, electricity supply and land use & biofuels. Click here to access the UK government MacKay Carbon Calculator to practice making some of these difficult decisions and use our worksheet for activities and teacher-led lesson ideas. 

This is recommended for A level geographers. If you or your students are 11+ or are studying GCSE geography go to the My2050 Carbon Calculator.

Developed in partnership with the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.
