Energy: Low Carbon Transition Plan

My Lords, will the noble Lord spell out more precisely the Government’s estimates of the taxation implications of the policy that they have just announced? Is he aware of the very serious historical in-depth studies that question the degree to which the phenomenon of global warming is actually attributed to mankind and man's activities? What proportion of the global warming taking place do the Government perceive as being the responsibility of humankind rather than natural cycles?
