Brexit ‘delays net-zero goal’, warns SNP minister

Brexit is undermining the battle against the climate emergency, a senior SNP government minister warned.

Michael Matheson claimed it is more difficult accessing labour needed for Scotland to transition to green energy.

He made the comments to MSPs at Holyrood where he also warned a huge change in people’s behaviour is needed if Scotland is to meet its net-zero targets.
