Agenda 29.4.24 - is government support for household insulation and green living “a joke?”
X Agenda
Thursday, 11 April 2024 - 25 minutes
John Sheppard is a Sustainability Consultant and Technical director of Wren Sustainable Limited. He believes that government initiatives to help households become more sustainable are “a joke” and he tells us why on Agenda. While government has legislation requiring it to deliver on carbon reduction targets, it seems that legislation is limited on requiring government agencies to help people reduce their energy needs. It certainly makes financial sense for us all to better insulate our homes and reduce energy bills so why aren’t more of us doing this? Is there real substance behind the government green wash?
