Wales is planning to adopt the world's earliest net zero emissions target following a deal struck in its parliament.

The principality aims to cut greenhouse gas pollution to zero by 2035 – ten years earlier than Scotland's goal and 15 years ahead of the UK-wide 2050 target. A deal cut between Labour and Plaid Cymru in the Senedd launched a paper which states the Welsh government will 'commission independent advice to examine potential pathways to net zero by 2035'. 

The Welsh government will seek advice from the Climate Change Committee (CCC).
