Meeting description: Along with representatives from other NGOs we met the Member to discuss the implications of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Special Report on 1.5 degrees and to highlight the detrimental impacts of not taking efforts to limit warming urgently. Friends of the Earth Scotland pressed our view that the Climate Change (Emissions Reductions Targets) (Scotland) Bill needed to include stronger targets for stronger 2030 and 2050 targets. We also discussed recent Conservative party policy announcements on packaging and circular economy and expressed our support for a deposit return scheme
