Background
The UK governments say they wish the UK to set an example to the world by achieving Net Zero. To do this, politicians need to show that they are all committed to it by following the actions that are being proposed in the Carbon Budget. If they expect the public to make the proposed changes at their own expense, then they also must do likewise. The Houses of Parliament and Whitehall should show of how Net Zero can be achieved with heat pumps instead of using gas, and car chargers in the garages.
