Sir Paul Marshall rebukes the Net Zero madness and calls it “Climate Derangement Syndrome” in his @arc_forum speech. He says that China and India are about as committed to net zero as Britain is to investigating the grooming gangs. “It is the USA who played the smartest game. It was the United States, through Al Gore, who launched climate anxiety on the world. In 2009, Al Gore warned that the North Pole would be ice-free by the summer of 2014. But the US never stopped drilling. And now, just at the point where many Western countries have swallowed the net zero ideology hook, line and sinker, you Americans are moving on to leave the rest of us like a half-dead fish flopping on the riverbank. Just like with Wokery and DEI, America launched a set of luxury beliefs on the world, watched as those beliefs gained traction, only to discard them in their own land just before they reach the point of fatal destruction. Unlike Europe in particular, the US still has the DNA to resist ideas that are bad for your wealth. You understand the foundations of wealth creation, and you don’t take them for granted. Sadly, we have a much weaker immune system.”
