Membership Principles
- Climate change is an urgent problem requiring greenhouse gas emissions to be substantially reduced locally and globally within a timescale that limits the risk of serious impacts.
- Road transport is an important source of greenhouse gas emissions and must make a significant contribution to reducing its emissions through a combination of improved vehicle technology, use of alternative fuels and responsible vehicle use.
- Government, industry and other stakeholders share responsibility for accelerating the supply of, and demand for, low carbon vehicles and fuels.
- The UK should seek to provide leadership to the international community by demonstrating how to achieve a sustainable pathway to a low carbon future and thereby stimulate opportunities for UK-based businesses.
- Working through a multi-stakeholder partnership is an effective means of accelerating the passage to a low carbon future.
