What they really mean is we will run out of STORED gas … meaning we’ll pay even higher prices to outbid other countries! Thanks to years of incompetent energy policies we have less than 8 days of gas storage capacity, even when full! And haven’t opened our own fields. And as usual, WE will pay for their incompetence!

Earth's atmosphere is 99.96% nitrogen, oxygen and argon - yet carbon dioxide is less than a tenth of 1%. A global climate franchise based around the United Nations, has driven a 40-year campaign, based on CO₂ as an existential threat to the future of mankind. However, fundamental planetary physics and geology contradict this agenda, which has caused disruption and widespread industrial decline in Western nations. The warming effect of additional atmospheric CO₂ follows a descending logarithmic curve: each incremental 100 ppm yields roughly only half the warming effect of the preceding 100 ppm. Far from triggering runaway warming, additions of 2 to 3 ppm per year represent a vital biological recovery following hundreds of millions of years of long-term planetary CO₂ depletion. Geologically speaking, Earth - and human society - is in a cooler ice age regime, making current interglacial warming and carbon bounce-back a welcome restoration of the biological world, not a threat. We live in a world already several degrees colder than temperatures throughout 90% of this biological age. The tangible evidence of a decades long biological revival has become visible from space. NASA satellite imagery demonstrates widespread 'global greening', particularly across arid and semi-desert margins where elevated CO₂ allows vegetation to retain water and flourish. Farm produce has soared, cereal crops by 280%. This green leaf recovery has been met only with brooding silence from corporate boardrooms and the UN. It's not driven by the physics of climate, but mapped out in economic spreadsheets, for a spending effort unmatched in world history. The oceans are the key to the vagueries of the world's climate. They cover 72% of the Earth's surface area to an average depth of 2.3 miles, yet they have been conspicuously absent from the climate manifesto, coined by the IPCC. The oceans also contain 86% of Earth’s surface carbon reservoir. They dominate the world's climate systems, generating global rainfall, cloud cover and water vapor. Oceans also provide the bulk of plant and algae photosynthesis, and oxygen regeneration. This comes from microscopic phytoplankton, making up less than 2% of global plant biomass. These single-celled organisms generate up to 80% of Earth’s oxygen and perform nearly half of all global photosynthesis. Processing between 30 and 50 billion metric tons of carbon annually, phytoplankton match the carbon capture capability of all terrestrial forests combined. Marine dynamics are profound: as oceans warm, they naturally release CO₂; as they cool, they absorb and retain it. Deep ocean currents carry tropical warm upwards to the otherwise frigid Northern Hemisphere over thousand year cycles. Despite these physical realities, the UN climate franchise marches onwards, a wayward experiment expected to cost the world $275 trillion by 2050, or more than two-and-a-half times global GDP.

Sometimes I am still surprised at just how stupid politicians and civil servants are. Let’s take this … raising tariffs on Chinese cars to 45% in line with the EU. 3 easy steps of stupidity…. 1. British consumers get a price INCREASE! making the UK’s Net Zero targets even harder to hit! 2. China still wins - China dominates the supply of EV batteries, battery materials and critical mineral processing. British cars are ASSEMBLED here. Much of what goes into British EVs still comes from China. 3. Then there’s this madness! … China gets paid TWICE. Under the UK’s Net Zero vehicle mandate, British carmakers that don’t sell enough electric cars can pay Chinese manufacturers for their spare Net Zero credits to avoid government penalties. So China can make money even when we DON’T buy their cars! Brilliant! We pay more, Net Zero targets get harder to meet, and China wins regardless All to keep Brussels happy. 🤡

Miatta You go to real UK industries like steel, oil, gas, refineries, chemicals, cement, potteries etc & speak to those communities You will be met with rage and fury at what your Net Stupid Zero policies have done Then talk to ordinary families who cannot pay their energy bills Then talk to businesses that cannot invest and grow or survive due to high energy costs Then you will see & hear the damage you eco zealots have done

TotalEnergies boss Patrick Pouyanné says European refineries once regarded as liabilities are “suddenly becoming goldmines.” Yet Britain has allowed its refining capacity to dwindle from nine refineries in 2000 to just four today. Time to focus on our domestic energy security - bonus if it's also a 'goldmine'. #CostOfNetZero

The North Sea could become ‘uninvestable’ if oil and gas fields off the Scottish coast do not get the go-ahead from the UK Government. This is the stark warning from Equinor's Chief Executive. Labour declared that development of Jackdaw and Rosebank would be banned if it won the 2024 general election. Now however, the stark economic realities are becoming apparent. #CostOfNetZero

Britain’s grid operator has put power stations on alert to cover a potential energy shortfall as low winds weaken output from turbines. The notice came after forecasters predicted overnight that winds would be low on Tuesday, meaning output is expected to be around 40pc what was previously forecast. Renewables don't supply energy security. #CostOfNetZero

The cost to consumers of paying wind farms to switch off because Britain’s electricity grid cannot cope has already exceeded last year’s total of nearly £1.5bn. So far this year, Britain has wasted just over £1.51bn switching off wind turbines and paying gas plants to switch on, exceeding the £1.47bn spent in the whole of last year. #CostOfNetZero

The CBI say “sky-high” energy costs are pushing households to “breaking point” and forcing bosses to “cut back, scale down or close altogether”. The group used its Budget submission to urge the Chancellor to move the net zero burden away from business owners, and cut the cost of running the electricity grid. Business energy prices are now 45pc above the average of the G7 club of rich nations leaving UK firms at a “competitive disadvantage”. #CostOfNetZero

Oohhhh… well done taxpayers! The government is spending £81 MILLION on an early warning system for climate tipping points including changes in the Atlantic that MIGHT mean cold Canadian type winters… At the same time as committing £BILLIONS of our money preparing for overwhelming heat! Covering all bases hahaha 🤣 (that’s hysteria, not mirth)

Britain’s electricity grid CRISIS Net Zero ideologue Miliband started madness back in 2008 Now every household pays over £50 per year in constraint payments to wind operators not to produce electricity By 2030 will be £250 per household per year extra cost From you, to the wind operators not to turn their turbines Scrap Net Zero, stop this insanity https://t.co/IVMNIU6cgx
