How carbon colossus China dwarfs Britain’s net zero push

The world’s biggest polluter is pumping out CO2 at levels 33 times higher than Britain

As an early leader in the industrial revolution and worker of miracles with coal power, Britain churned out more CO2 emissions than China until the 1950s, and was comprehensively overtaken in the 1970s.

Taking on the mantle of the workshop of the world in the 1990s and 2000s, China turned out six-times more CO2 than the UK in 2000, according to Our World In Data, rising to more than 16-times Britain’s in 2010, and 33-times by 2021.

Net Zero is virtue signaling at its most vile jeapordizing the livelihoods of millions for the sake of cirle jerking preening twits like Trudeau.

Depending on your outlook, the Net Zero movement could result in anything from the seven horses of the apocalypse riding across the sky to the delivery of some sort of Nirvana for humankind.

No matter what your view, some facts are clear and undisputed.

Fact one. It is going to cost a fortune and you will be paying the bill. Fact two. If investments in intermittent wind and solar didn’t provide significant returns, no one would invest in them. Fact three. Intermittent and unreliable generators will always deliver intermittent and unreliable electricity.

The eco-elites’ insane war on farming

Three cheers for the Irish farmers who’ve joined the revolt against Net Zero.

Should we kill all cows? Amazingly, it’s a question the green elites are asking. ‘Cow burps’, with their methane, contribute 14.5 per cent of the world’s greenhouse-gas emissions. Cow dung releases ammonia, a nitrogen compound that damages natural habitats. From both their mouths and their behinds, cows cause pollution. So let’s cull them. Earlier this year, the Irish government proposed the slaughter of 200,000 cows to help it meet its climate targets. The Dutch government has flirted with the idea of reducing livestock numbers by 30 per cent to ‘reduce damaging ammonia pollution’. ‘Should we kill trillions of animals to save the planet?’, headlines ask.

The human cost of Net Zero

The war on fossil fuels is far more dangerous than climate change.

In 2021, Jeremiah Thoronka was making a name for himself in clean-energy technology. The then 21-year-old Durham University masters student had invented a device that uses kinetic energy from traffic and pedestrians to generate electricity. It certainly sounded groundbreaking. In a pilot project in Thoronka’s native Sierra Leone, two devices had apparently provided free electricity to 150 households and 15 schools.

The classist lunacy of Net Zero

This eco-ideology is a cruel imposition on the lives of the working class.

So even one of Just Stop Oil’s wealthy donors is tiring of its classist stunts. Trevor Neilson, a co-founder of the Climate Emergency Fund, which has pumped money into Just Stop Oil, says the eco-irritants’ funereal, road-blocking marches for Mother Earth increasingly come off as ‘disruption for the sake of disruption’. You have ‘working people that are trying to get to their job, get their kid dropped off at school [and] survive a brutal cost-of-living crisis’, he says, and then along comes a ‘pink-haired, tattooed and pierced protester standing in front of their car’. It pisses people off, he said.

Rex Murphy: Liberals come for Alberta oil workers with mistitled sustainable jobs act

The title of the act is a lie. It is not about sustaining jobs. It is about killing jobs

Is it that they don’t know better? Or they simply do not care? It has to be both.

The most arrogant, blundering government in modern times is fixated on devastating the most essential industry Canada has; on stopping the production of the most essential resource of the modern world. The resource that makes the world work: energy.

Saskatchewan plan to run coal power plants beyond 2030 would be illegal, Guilbeault says

OTTAWA — It would be against the law for Saskatchewan to run its coal-fired power plants after 2030 unless the greenhouse-gas emissions from those plants are captured, federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault said Wednesday.

His comment comes as electricity generation becomes the latest jurisdictional battle over climate policy between federal and provincial governments.

Net Zero’s artificial food crisis paves the way for ‘future foods’

Net Zero rules employed by the United Nations, European Union, and domestic political parties across the world are expected to cause the imminent shutdown of high-production farmland, or at least, significantly reduce its capacity.
