Maybe.

The problem is the politicians all want to sign up to this nirvana of ‘net zero’ 2050 carbon dioxide emissions but thats like signing up for we all want world peace forever. There is no practical roadmap of how this is going to be cost effectively achieved without utterly uprooting peoples lives, livelihoods and lifestyle.

For example I want to continue to fly regularly to Europe (not that thats happened now for 2 years) and (eg) regularly eat my T bone steaks paying current prices (or equivalent preferably lower prices adjusted for inflation). Apparently under the fruit loops both of these activities are ‘carbon dioxide intensive’. In other words I don’t want my lifestyle altered by the folly - and I’m not the only one. Whats the map of how this is going to actually happen without the country and its idiot politicians effectively committing us to economic suicide? Its especially galling when all of the rich (elites) like to lecture us whilst hypocritically tripping around in their private jets and heating / cooling their massive mansions. Forrest / Harry / Merkel are cases in point.

That would be one of the most selfish, entitled load of garbage I have read. You want to fly to Europe every year, eat steak and not have your lifestyle disrupted regardless of climate change threatening the livelihood of billions? Then you rant about the rich lecturing us. OMG, do you really know exactly what a self-centred individual you sound like?
