Observations

Regardless of anyone’s views about the whole area of ‘climate change’, government policies are already affecting our lives.

Indeed they are set to change our lives still more radically, as gas boilers to heat our homes and petrol and diesel cars will soon be severely restricted. The massive subsidies provided to the ‘renewables’ sector from taxpayers’ money have already substantially increased the cost of energy.

According to our analysis of official data, Rishi Sunak can stop worrying about his highly expensive ‘net zero’ project and instead sit back and wait for the EU to catch up. At current rates this will take many years.

Rishi Sunak's government now appears to be openly discussing the whole question of the speed of the race to 'New Zero'. This seems partly to have been driven by the by-election win for the Conservatives in Boris Johnson's old seat of Uxbridge. It is thought that local opposition to London Mayor Sadiq Khan's 'Ultra Low Emissions Zones (ULEZ)' may have caused many voters to boycott the Labour Party.

Is the Sunak government becoming 'frit'?

When pollsters ask people "Is climate change a problem?" the majority say yes. Now, however, the realisation is sinking in of just how much this is going to cost ordinary people, on top of the massive energy costs they are paying as a result of the switch to renewables.

We believe there is also another issue at play here, and it's about politics. The government's Net Zero targets - more extreme than those of the EU - are looking less and less likely to be met. Modifying and setting back the target dates now will look more like a policy shift based on making things more affordable at a time of worries about the cost of living. In reality it will of course avoid charges that the government is not on track to meet its promises.

The EU compared to the United Kingdom

Under these circumstances it seems appropriate to look at how the EU is doing compared to Brexit Britain when it comes to CO2 emissions. The EU does not come out well, as can be seen above.
