Chancellor Rishi Sunak insisted that this week's mini-budget is a "green" initiative, but his plans have received strong criticism from campaigners.<br>
<br>
The majority of Sunak's environmentally friendly policies revolved around insulating homes - a policy programme that is already facing legal action.<br>
<br>
Campaign group Plan B described the Chancellor's proposals as "clearly unlawful" as they fall short of the UK's legal obligations under the Paris climate change agreement.<br>
<br>
Sunak promised £3bn on green initiatives, such as grants to help householders cover the cost of insulation, but Plan B pointed out that this amount pales in comparison to the billions provided to carmakers and airlines during the Coronavirus response.<br>
<br>
"The proposed approach is ... no more than a fig leaf for the government's new deal for polluters," the group wrote in a letter to ministers seen by the Guardian. The correspondence was the first step towards taking legal action against the government.<br>
<br>
Shadow Minister for International Development, Anna McMorrin, agreed. She said: "This is not what a green recovery looks like. The Chancellor touts a green recovery in one breath but invests in high-carbon industry both at home and overseas in another, pumping billions into fossil-fuel projects abroad."<br>
<br>
The Chancellor's plan for jobs has also been criticised, with the Institute for Fiscal Studies warning that much of his £30bn statement was poorly targeted.<br>
<br>
So what would a strong green recovery look like? On Tuesday, we convene two leading experts to discuss the role of trade unions in ensuring that we build back better. Ann Pettifor, economist and author of The Case for the Green New Deal, will be joined by Unite's Assistant General Secretary, Steve Turner at this free event.<br>
<br>
The seventh in our Covid-19 webinar series, Transitioning to a sustainable and green economy, will be held between 7pm and 8pm on the Zoom platform. Registration is required.
