Starmer: New UK target for 81% emissions cut by 2035

[Hereiam]

The leaders of 200+ countries flying  in their private planes, to an  oil rich  state (again) to talk about  climate change.

Hmm ,  forgive me  for  being a tad  cynical about it all

Climate change will be the last thing these shower of cnuts will be talking about at this gathering.

Climate change is real. But it is being used as an excuse to tax the shit out of us which is disgraceful.

What's changed in your yearly tax from 5 years based on your findings of being taxed the shit of?

I'm just asking...

If it's a monetary thing then I'd like to what's been the difference?

Just don't come out with I'm being taxed the shit out off it!

People even use this line and they haven't worked a day in their lives lol

Hold on, we've 10s of millions of flights / year, most of us taking multiple flights / year ourselves, yet you're cynical re climate change because 200 planes are taking World leaders to try and find solutions? OK

Well, you have that  bit  correct anyway .  They'll "find solutions" no doubt .  Solutions  to how they and their buddies can  continue to cash in , and  solutions on how the peasants will  be  less well off, with  more controls placed on them.

It's 200 countries,  not 200 planes.  And I am aware of the number of flights, but  it's the hypocrisy of the  whole thing.

And did you never  wonder  why they have  it in an oil rich state?

The best decision for the world is not determined by one individual's house.

The best decision for the world would be for humans to neuter their children and to make do with a meager existence (if you're not rich enough to buy the carbon credits that is)

You vill eat zees bugs und you vill be happy.

Given the decline in the birthrate there is no need to neuter the children, they will spend all their time on tik-tok anyway.

But its good that your kids and mine won't have kids isn't it?

They need to get nuclear energy back on the table. Technology has advanced and scaled down, lessons have been learned. It has to be part of the solution as energy demands are not going to dramatically decrease.

I can't stand Trump, but I hope he'll pursue it.

100%. It's already been getting traction for a couple of years now. Small Modular Reactors are much safer than the larger nuclear powers plants. Microsoft and Oracle are already using these in their data centre build outs.

Did they have it in an oil rich state in 2021? Or 2019? Or 2018? Or 2017? Or 2016? Or 2015? Or 2014? Or 2013?

They've found plenty of solutions - in Europe - greenhouses gases are almost 40% lower than levels found in 1990

[theskull1]

They've found plenty of solutions - in Europe - greenhouses gases are almost 40% lower than levels found in 1990

So (taking that number as a given) it's taken 35 years to reduce the 1990 number by 40% and you reckon we'll be able to make the same progress in the next 10 with minimal impact to quality of life?

How is your life negatively affected? What in the name of God are you talking about?

Yeah its the way forward for sure.
