London's High Court rules UK's latest climate action plan unlawful in legal challenge by environmental groups.

London's High Court ruled that the UK's latest climate action plan is unlawful, in a legal challenge brought by environmental groups Friends of the Earth, ClientEarth, and the Good Law Project. The groups argued that the plan lacked specific details and did not provide evidence that policies to reduce emissions could be delivered. This is the second time in two years that the UK government's main climate action plan has been found to be unlawful and insufficient in meeting legally-binding targets to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
