Background
The science behind 'net zero' is by no means settled (not that science ever can be, in any event). Renewable energy is costly, harmful to wildlife and itself has a huge negative environmental impact. Renewable energy is only economically viable with vast taxpayer subsidies which the country can ill afford. UK carbon emissions are trivial on a global scale. Germany has suffered massive economic damage in its own drive to pursue 'net zero' and if we do not act soon, the UK will follow suit.
