The Scottish government has confirmed it will scrap its annual and interim targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
They will be replaced with a system measuring emissions every five years.
Ministers have announced a raft of measures to cut planet-warming gases including a national integrated ticketing system for public transport.
New legislation will be introduced similar to the carbon budgets used by the UK and Welsh governments.
The Scottish government insists the long-term target to reach net zero by 2045 "steadfastly" remains.
Oh well, I suppose they have to keep adapting their dreams as reality creeps in. I wonder what new date will be set the closer they get to 2045 as well, all at the tax payers expense.
