Coal needs to be consigned to history to limit global warming, says UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, describing a UN report on climate change as “sobering”. Please subscribe HERE http://bit.ly/1rbfUog
The report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) – the UN group on the science of climate change – said climate change was already here and causing chaos in some places.
The Prime Minister said the world must shift to clean energy and provide finance to help countries at risk from changing climates.
The UK government, which has adopted a 2035 deadline for a 78% emissions cut, is due to publish its strategy on cutting UK emissions to zero overall by 2050 this autumn.
Net zero means cutting carbon emissions as far as possible then balancing out any remaining releases, for example by tree planting.
But what could net zero mean for our society and economy? Newsnight Economics Editor Ben Chu reports.

Shutting down the Redcar plant did not help the UK to decarbonise… they just shifted the burden to China who took over the unsustainable activities. The same amount of pollution is still being pumped into the environment.
Fight climate change and go vegan.
You don't say the a in Redcar
In order to keep Tory promises,it’s good to know that having to buy an electric car and having to replace our gas boilers will mean that we are all doing our bit(even if we can’t afford it). Should help the Govt. VAT returns as well ! So glad we gave the caring Johnson an 80 seat majority !!!
Whoe's paying for it all ,
We are barely 1% of the world's CO2 emissions and a lot of the green tech is developed in UK. We are an example to follow, if anything. Useless radical idiots.
The earth naturally release around 95 % of carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere not carbon learn the difference. Man around 3%.,
They really need to get these boilers out there everywhere they look better and better for climate change awesome
Bulshit baffles brains
Climate change is the Biggest SCAM SCAM SCAM EVER next to the BBC.
BBC stop being cowards and turn on the comment for Prince Andrew, we already know you cover up for pedophillia just like the ROYALS,THE GOVERNMENT, MI5/6 the police and the royal security staff, funny HOW YOU COVERUP FOR THE RICH and NEVER EVER DEFEND THE VICTIMS, at the end of the day royals and elite globalist are men and women just like us, you all need to be brought to justice and he definitely need to serve time in prison just like the everyday man or women would.
Why should we be mugged for the tv license anymore, HIGH WAY ROBBERY TO BE FORCED TO PAY FOR SOMETHING I WOULD NEVER WATCH, PROPAGANDA MEDIA
NO! I like my stake whit a little smoke f* off!
Whats the track that plays at 1:41 ?
Please interview Prof Guy McPherson from Nature Bats Last and tell us the reality?

It means nothing. Death was always on the cards, so we won't be around long enough to colonize the solar system. Boo hoo
Growth of GDP and stopping the climate change are INCOMPATIBLE !
Sorry… do you know how much energy it takes to produce… H2 ? A hell of a lot !
Hydrogen isn't very efficient though is it. Why aren't they going for electric heating or heat pump tech? Creating electricity and then making hydrogen that is heavy and needs to be transported (another energy overhead) doesn't seem to make sense. Are they just trying to keep the gas infrastructure alive?
EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW, UNLESS THE LEADING COUNTRY IN CARBON EMISSION CHANGE, IT WONT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. CHINA, THE US, INDIA STILL PRODUCE THE MOST CARBON EMISSION, AND THEY STILL HIDING AND DONT CHANGE!
Nuclear power plants is the way to go.
Education is what was missing. We will make sure this does not happen again.
Sea level has risen for 12000 years, the rate of sea level rise has actually gone down over the last 100. There are places that record sea level where there has been no rise since recording started. Obummer bought a Island 5 feet above sea level. It's all a lie to control you! I'll tell you what's dumb. Dumb is thinking a trace gas that humans and animals breath out and plants breath in is a pollution that is changing the weather and destroying the planet. People we are carbon based life forms for God sakes, WAKE UP!!!
And lithium for those cars is planned to be extracted in Serbia, first time mining under waste fertile agricultural soil, and above largest underground fresh clean water lake in that part of Europe, above the rivers and land, because the mine is going to be in the mountain region. Blair is btw our president adviser.
So, dear colonisers, enjoy.
If we'd started on this decades ago it would've been pain-free really, now it's too late it's going to suck, but every year we wait is another year of it getting worse. We desperately need not only net zero, but to prosecute those who profited off of their lies & misinformation. Tax those that benefited the most from destroying the world
We should create a new world order the elites are self centred pigs
Taking Action Lite
Can't know how I stopmed onto this. Anyway GREAT content
. I also have been watching those rather similar from mStarTutorials and kinda wonder how you guys make these stuff. MStar Tutorials also had cool info about similiar money making things on his channel.
The next variant, the Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Lilo variant the 5th booster for the 23rd virus variant. If you don't get yours your infecting everyone else!!!!!
United Nation unfortunately helping terrorism by supporting Terrorist Taliban . By not taking any military action. And US gifting
ammunition to terrorism taliban . Shame on
.
Walmart has announced that by the 1st of November 2021 that the Non-Vaxed won't be allowed to buy food from the store anymore …. This will start to migrate across the nation where Riots… And division will breakout … They had to call in the Army subliminally by using a Fuel pandemic…. Be ready people for what's coming people … Go and stock up now!
The uk only contributes 0.9 percent of carbon emissions compared with 27 percent for china. Getting everyone to buy heat pumps is not viable for all homes. What about those in blocks of flats. There has been no real discussion of other types of heating such as district heating systems that would be more efficient in heating hundreds of homes than having individual pumps. What about public transport improvements no discussion. Heat pumps become less efficient in colder temperatures and would require gas backups when temperatures drop below freezing. The strategy is lacking in details and costs. Some of the technology has not even been developed yet. It seems a great way to bankrupt an economy on the alter of ideals. Let the largest carbon emissions countries implement changes first. When they get down to o.9 percent then we will be on par.
The worlds third biggest emitter India is not signing up and China’s emissions are skyrocketing so to all you greenies go to China and complain, until then you have no cred
F all.
World news The higher the temperature, the more the oceans will evaporate, then there will be more humidity and more precipitation, the desert will decrease plants regarding moisture and carbon dioxide will grow faster, the history of the earth is such that if global warming was antiquity, then it was a paradise for the biosphere,. .and when global cooling was then the evaporation of the oceans would decrease and precipitation would decrease, the desert would increase, this would collapse for the biosphere, the largest desert Antarctica, the hottest place the rainforests.
Notice how the BBC doesn't talk about the "true" cost of all this. The pain, yes, you ain't seen nothing yet ££££££
Can everyone please sign the NET ZERO REFERENDUM 2050 YOUGOV petition to stop this stupid nonsense because MP's live on another planet when it comes to money jo public have to live off.
Just Google 'net zero referendum 2050' and it'll pop up… it's up to around 23k at the moment…
Everyone will be wiped out. Ukrainian war is the black swan event of 2022 that will push the global economy to a grinding halt. Bye bye world. Better own crypto since fiat currency is now paper with no value. Emperor Palpatine Star Wars. May the force be with us.
Redcar was hit hard by the closure of its steelworks, and the loss of 2000 jobs, in 2015. This strategy is giant and brave leap cutting carbon emissions. It is painful for communites and workers because of livelihood. Pipeline, cookware are made of steel or copper. Everybody eats fast food. The plastic is all over the place and recycling is problematic. ’Do somethig drastic, cut a plastic!’
Net zero means for society are new jobs manily and for the economy is a very complex issue. The question is what to do with polluting industry and how to invest in transformation by replacing fossil fuel infrastucture. Without climate madness I think the target is not the „net zero” but we need transformation everywhere bit by bit.
It's too late by then. We will all be dead cremated.
Just a bullshitter and liar 30 years to lower carbon emissions what bullshit.
Net zero pushed by the WEF, UN, US, UK, EU is a load of BS! These hypocrits provoke war for natural resources that create carbon. Surely people don't believe this fabeicated carbon tax on the air!
Scrap Net Zero
Never in the field of human history has there been so much talk about a problem or crisis for so little result. Frankly, to achieve net zero with no carbon emissions at all means a return to a Hunter gathering society of thousands of years ago. That of course, will have to mean far less people than there are today. It is time for net zero advocates to acknowledge this fact.
The biggest and in theory easiest thing to reduce carbon into the atmosphere is to stop uncontrolled cutting of rain forests and planting forests. I say in theory because obviously this is far easier said than done, and it certainly not happened yet. And most rain forests lie in poorer countries where people worry about how they will be able to feed themselves the next week, rather than on longer-term problems like the climate. Certainly not all, but most people concerned about the climate live in richer countries where they do not have to worry whether they can feed themselves next week, though the cost of living crisis is changing that, at least for many people.
I doubt whether all this rhetoric about carbon emissions will make any difference at all to those emissions. It has not in the last 4 decades and almost certainly will not in the next 4. I may be wrong, but I doubt it.

It's got bugger all to do with climate nor the environment. It's about Enslavement and central control by a Feudalist global elite. No net zero when it comes to immigration. Gangsters of fighting age can be used to do the dirty work of the elite.
Are people stupid
Net zero is the biggest con in history.
Lies lies lies.
