3  Glasgow has pledged to become the first carbon neutral city in the UK. The city’s council and ScottishPower have announced a range of strategies in an attempt to reduce carbon emissions ahead of the new national target of 2045. First Minister Nicola Sturgeon welcomed the pledge and said:“Today’s announcement between ScottishPower and Glasgow City Council—to make Glasgow the UK’s first net-zero city—is a very welcome step. Reaching our goals will need exactly this kind of partnership approach—with Government, business, local authorities and citizens all playing their part.” Speaking ahead of the All Energy Conference being held in Glasgow, ScottishPower chief executive Keith Anderson said:“We have a large supply of renewable energy on our doorstep and one of the only two low emission zones in action across the UK.  4  Now, we need to invest in the technologies and programmes that transform the rest of Glasgow’s economy and make us net zero before anyone else.”

 3  格拉斯哥承诺要成为英国第一个碳中和城市。市议会和苏格兰电力公司宣布了一系列战略，试图在国家2045年新目标实现之前减少碳排放。首席部长尼古拉·斯特金对这一承诺表示支持，说： “今天苏格兰电力公司和格拉斯哥市议会宣布将格拉斯哥建成英国第一个净零碳城市，这是非常受欢迎的一个举措。要实现我们的目标，就需要这种政府、企业、地方当局和公民都发挥作用的伙伴关系方式。"在正在举行的格拉斯哥全能源会议召开之前，苏格兰电力公司首席执行官基恩·安德森表示： "我们附近有大量的可再生能源供应，拥有全英国仅有的、正在进行的两个低排放区之一。 4  现在，我们需要在技术和项目上进行投资，以改变格拉斯哥经济的其他部分，让我们比其他任何人都先实现碳净零排放。”
