She may be on her way out, but the UK’s Prime Minister Theresa May, has committed her country to ‘net zero’ carbon emissions by 2050, hoping to cement her legacy.
May called the commitment “ambitious but essential” for protecting the Earth.
The move is in line with the 2015 Paris agreement, but climate activists say it’s not enough.
They say the world’s states must achieve that goal by 2025.

2050 is too late, we need action now!
“Major changes”? Ha… If the whole world sets a 2050 target, the world won’t live too long anymore…
Absolute insanity from a failed certifiable megalomaniac.
Pro = The answer's been here for at least 80 years, however initial costs are massive! (Big Deal?)
Con = It's eventually free, self-generating, non-contaminating and has (presently) ultra-low maintenance costs.
We'll never get it because it cant be taxed. Brtish gas holds all the cards but they're too scared to cross the government, you know those elected bandits!
I hate Theresa for calling trump
Lmao how dumb is this? The technology doesn't exist (profitably) to live without fossil fuels, yet a Government wants to impose a fossil fuel free society. Wow how immoral!
Net zero would be a complete disaster for the West and other countries. How we have let ourselves get conned into believing all this so-called ‘environmental’ nonsense is beyond me? Are these people pushing for this agents of hostile countries? These ‘environmentalists’ and their ilk, like the ‘greens’ etc should be treated as basically terrorists, as they will destroy our countries if they have their way!
