GET INVOLVED! CALLS FOR EVIDENCE ON NET ZERO UK GOVERNMENT REVIEW

Aaron O'Sullivan

This has recently been released on the UK government website. 

https://beisgovuk.citizenspace.com/nzs/call-for-evidence-on-net-zero-review/

"The aim of the call for evidence is to provide an open channel to the general public to give their views on the transition, in particular giving a voice to the public and small and medium enterprises (SMEs)."

If you want to be heard, this is your chance. 

I'm drafting my response currently. 

Opened 29th Sep 

Closes 27th Oct

    I can tell by the questions that it's a nonsense agenda driven piece. Net zero is unachievable and thats obvious to me. 

    There's plenty of evidence available to confirm this but the questionnaire assumes the science is settled.

    Had they asked a different set of questions like for example, CO2 has been increasing slowly but the global temperature has not increased for the past 8 years do you think we have to worry ourselves enough to commit economic suicide?

    How are they ever going to learn if everyone's views aren't put forward? 

    It's like not voting in an election then complaining the person you wanted, didn't get in.

    Good to know, will look into it thanks!

  • What a load of nonsense from the green alarmist.

    The questions are ridiculous.

    I gave up by page 4

    Had they asked if net zero is worthwhile and gave the slightest understanding of the true reasoning and costs then I would be more engaged. But alas the government show their blinkered narrow minded understanding.
