Climate experts criticize handling of Tata changes in Port Talbot, impacting over 2,000 jobs and steel production processes. The closure of blast furnaces aims to decrease carbon emissions drastically in Wales, requiring a transition to greener steelmaking methods. Recommendations by the Climate Change Committee include promoting electric vehicles, heat pumps, tree planting, and shifting towards low-carbon heating systems and electric transportation for Wales to reach its net zero emissions goal by 2050.
