I don’t disagree that it’s rather silly, still we are making good headway with wind being as much as 70% of our power generation some days.
I just find it frustrating that we as a country who are likely about to kick out the Tories (who have been in power for the last 12 years) are going to still be holding their legacy of anti environmentalism (I think the Tories were actually pushing back net zero til 2050)
The reality being that Labour will likely do more to meet (and hopefully improve) our goals in the coming years. Labour also being the ones who are discussing closer ties with the EU again, though they are having to tread carefully as outright saying we’re going to rejoin the EU would be considered political suicide.
Basically everyone is sick of the Tories, but still much of our population has had it ingrained into them that “it’d be worse of Corbin had gotten in”.
It’s a complicated issue, but the reality is the UK being able to be held to account by the EU will do more for our environmental policies then being left on the outside, having to source our goods from much further away, and at a lower cost (which often has a higher environmental cost).
Which stance is that, if you don’t mind my asking?
Prolong shit till 2035, basically push the can down the road and do nothing
