Abstract
In this #EngShort we look at the impacts our homes have on #climatechange and #decarbonisation. With the temperature dropping and winter just around the corner, have you turned your #heating on yet? 85% of #homes in the #UK still rely on natural gas which contributes to our #greenhousegas #emissions. To limit #climatechange, emissions from heating need to be nearly zero by #2050. Could alternative cleaner gases such as #hydrogen help? Comment below to let us know your thoughts!
#Decarbonising quickly and effectively to hit our net zero target by 2050 requires urgent, clear and decisive leadership. Read our engineering priorities for delivering net zero:
