About this deal

GDP figures released by the Office of National Statistics this morning show that the economy grew by 0.

He wrote: “Homeowners face being thrown to the wolves to meet these ill-thought-out targets — spending hard-earned savings on refurbishments that may or may not cut carbon emissions,” adding: “Indeed, the only certainty is these new rules will make a lot of Britain’s homeowners much poorer.It is no use generating large quantities of green power if we don’t have the infrastructure to cope with it. Electric cars may promise us a greener future but they are a non-starter until they make one I can drive to Scotland in,” Daily Mail, November 16, 2020.

Clark shows that efforts to achieve the target will inevitably result in a huge hit to living standards, which will clobber the poorest hardest, a The book contains many such numbers that seem to have been cherrypicked or misconstrued to fit Clark’s thesis, and so cannot be taken at face value.

He is correct that there is a mess of current policies for adapting to those impacts of climate change that cannot now be avoided. He grudgingly accepted the physics of the greenhouse effect—that growing levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere heat the Earth—but claimed that human societies could simply adapt to lessen the impacts. Extinction Rebellion is no group of visionaries – just a left-wing mob determined to disrupt the lives of the rest of us. I almost felt annoyed when I realised that he clearly had many telling points and that he pretty much demolished the case for Net Zero on a basis that it’s difficult to unpick even if you think that climate change is very serious and urgent indeed. The Netherlands can afford to build sea walls and to redesign towns and its landscape to cope with the water.
