Opening Speech:

My Lords,

The future is renewable energy and it is vital in our fight to reach carbon net-zero. As I have stated in the motion there are many benefits including an increase in jobs which is massive, however, there is still hesitation among businesses and the general public who may not like the idea of transitioning away from fossil fuels which is why I am calling for a review and to highlight why we should be going ahead with a renewable future where we emit little to no greenhouse gases and help in our fight against climate change .
