Assuming current global carbon output is around 14 Billion Tonnes, to be absolute zero by 2050 means the remaining global fossil carbon budget is about 196 billion tonnes.
There are 27 years between 2023 & 2050 or about 850 million seconds. That means every second between now & 2050 an average of 230 Tonnes carbon must be removed from that global carbon budget
1 - Rishi Sunak has just announced the provision of hundreds of new oil & gas exploration leases in the North Sea, claiming that this is necessary step in the UK becoming 'net-zero-emissions' by 2050.
2 A small fraction of what is produced there will be consumed in the UK, where a small fraction of this will be reabsorbed by the (very expensive) implementation of CCS in the UK.
3 The rest will be bought & sold on international oil/gas markets helping the rest of the world to achieve net-zero-emissions by 2050.
How can these decisions possibly help the zero carbon agenda? The only explanation for this is the collective 'Pathological Cognitive Disorder' (PCD) shared amongst Rishi Sunak & his advisors.
They clearly should not be allowed to run this country deeper into the alarming global climate crisis we are now obviously & dangerously in.
The underlying problems of the #ClimateEmergency are overconsumption by a select few (including our well-to-do politicians), and overpopulation. Those in the privileged position to overconsume have no interest in giving that up. It is possible that the goal of many governments is to pretend they are doing something, and let billions of people die. It is possible they have decided that is the most practical solution to the problem. We have seen genocides committed by the rulers more than one time in history. Why not again, now? https://geoffreydeihl.substack.com/p/circumstantial-evidence
