Alex Salmond calls for climate change 'leaps' in Scotland

"Great leaps forward" are needed in Scotland to help tackle climate change, former first minister Alex Salmond has said.

Ministers are expected to confirm later that the aim of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 75% by 2030 has been dropped.

Speaking in Aberdeen, Alba Party leader Mr Salmond told BBC Scotland News the last 10 years had seen targets stretched and performance being stopped.

He said that moving to carbon capture was one way forward.
