Decarbonisation is utterly futile. If C02 is an existential GLOBAL threat (I don't believe it is) then it requires global action. The UK emits 1% of the 3% of man made CO2. This means we create 0.0003% of CO2 (or 0.0000126% of the atmosphere) You can be completely innumerate (as most MPs are) but still know our nr is undetectable in any normal sense. China, Russia and India to name a few need to commit but they won't and haven't so we are literally commuting energy suicide. I've heard many say we should take the lead and others will follow. If you believe that ask the residents of Hong Kong. Net Zero is an utter disaster for us but as Peter Hitchens says 'politicians never admit they got anything wrong despite the evidence'. Truss has 4 weeks in my book.
