ClientEarth has won its High Court case against the Government over its failure to tackle illegal air pollution across the UK.
In his ruling, the judge, who listened to two days of argument at the High Court last month, questioned Defra’s five year modelling; saying it was “inconsistent” with taking measures to improve pollution ” as soon as possible.”
The case is the second the government has lost on its failure to clean up air pollution in two years.
