TRIGGERnometry
How Net Zero Destroyed Britain

So if we reduce our carbon emissions to zero and destroy our economy even more than we already have, we will reduce global carbon emissions by 1%.

TRIGGERnometry

That's what we're talking about.

TRIGGERnometry

Now...

TRIGGERnometry
How Net Zero Destroyed Britain

That's what we're talking about, right?

TRIGGERnometry

And the promise of net zero was, well, it doesn't matter that it's 1%, because Britain is a global leader.

We will inspire the world if we destroy our industry and hand it over to China, who's going to make the same things that we still need but dirtier, and then we ship them back here on ships that use the dirtiest fuel imaginable.

If we do that, the Chinese will be inspired to commit industrial suicide as well.

TRIGGERnometry
How Net Zero Destroyed Britain

The Chinese, clearly, are not as stupid as our leaders, so they haven't committed industrial suicide.

We have the highest industrial electricity prices in the developed world.

And we will not be able to make anything in this country anymore until we let go of this ridiculous idea that we will inspire other people to jump off a cliff like Lemmings, because we did.

It's not going to deliver prosperity.

And James talks about we need a strong economy and we need net zero.

TRIGGERnometry

Those two things are incompatible.

TRIGGERnometry
How Net Zero Destroyed Britain

You can't have both.

TRIGGERnometry
How Net Zero Destroyed Britain

So either you choose to make your people prosperous or you choose to pursue... That's not what I said.

TRIGGERnometry
How Net Zero Destroyed Britain

If that's not what you said, then forgive me.

TRIGGERnometry
How Net Zero Destroyed Britain

I thought what you said is we need both of those things, and I'm saying we can't have both of those things.
