The Friends of the Earth / Co-op Bank report by Tyndall Centre for Climate Change The future starts here: the route to a low carbon economy identifies and addresses three key issues...

• The urgent need to reduce emissions and introduce a comprehensive action plan by 2010.
• The UK's carbon budget - how much carbon dioxide the UK can release up to 2050 and still play its part in tackling climate change.
• How the UK can develop a clean economy that lives within this carbon budget.

The report is based upon and summarises extensive the research that the Tyndall Centre has undertaken into climate change and energy issues.
