A low carbon UK economy in 2022 could be a thriving economy.

There are plenty of opportunities to increase efficiency and strip out waste. This means cost savings and will improve household budgets and the commercial bottom line. It will also lead to new business opportunities to develop profitable services that promote efficiency.

New industries will appear and become highly lucrative for the UK economy, from local operations such as our U-Grow concept to a possible large scale carbon capture and storage industry.

UK agriculture and manufacturing could become more competitive if the cost of carbon is built in to the cost of imports.

There will be enormous opportunities for businesses and entrepreneurs in the UK to innovate new products and services that support low carbon lifestyles, and to export products and expertise, so supporting a competitive UK in the world economy.
