@EnvAgency is really plumbing new depths of malevolent uselessness here.
I’m a lifelong environmentalist, but net zero is a crass logic solution that creates bigger problems. We should be focusing on ecosystems, farming, photosynthesis and pollution reduction to ‘save the planet’ rather than the corporate virtue con trick of net zero.
Last summer a driver crashed into this ladys house. He was in a stolen car, uninsured and going 70mph in a 30mph area. Luckily her and her family weren't home at the time. They had to move out for over 6mnths & live in a hotel whilst her home was repaired through her house insurance. She's just been informed by GMP that there will be no further action against the driver & he faces no charges....how is that right? So you can go to jail for 2 or 3yrs for a social media post but if u go out & steal a car & drive it at high speed without insurance & crash it into a family home, not knowing if anyone is in & you dont face any charges whatsoever 🤷♀️🤬
“Let’s spend £4.5 trillion on net zero over the next 25 years despite the UK only accounting for less than 1% of annual global CO2 emissions. Let’s increase taxes to pay for net zero. Let’s ban new oil and gas licences in the North Sea but spaff away £40billion buying North Sea oil and gas from Norway. Let’s buy coking coal shipments worth £7.2million from Japan but ban UK coal mining. Let’s plaster thousands of acres of farmland with solar panels but spend £50million on sun dimming experiments. Let’s give huge renewable energy construction contracts to China. Let’s give Drax an estimated £1.8billlion in taxpayer funded subsidies on top of the £11billion it has already received despite Drax burning an amount of wood equivalent to 300 million trees. Let’s give £1billion this year alone to wind power companies not to generate power from their wind turbines. And let’s spend £30billion of taxpayers’ money on carbon capture machines but put pensioners, farmers and the disabled into financial peril by claiming there’s a £22bn black hole.”

I feel so sorry for any elderly person who struggles with online admin / isn’t online and doesn’t have a support network to help with online admin. Almost everything is online or automated now. And for those who aren’t online (in particular the elderly), they are marginalised.

In 1984 a German reporter in Paris explains how to cross Place de la Concorde: "Walk steadily across and never look at the drivers. If you do, they'll think you've seen them and won't stop."
