You have probably heard of “Net Zero,” the unrealistically ambitious target of having no net greenhouse gas emissions by some point in the relatively near future (2030, maybe 2050 at the latest). A report filed in 2019 by the prestigious government-funded UK organization of engineers and scientists, UK FIRES, thinks Net Zero is not enough and is pushing for an insanely aggressive program called “Absolute Zero,” absolutely zero emissions by 2050. What does it entail? Among other things, no flights, no container shipping, no red meat consumption, no cement, no new steel production, and no fossil fuel use for any reason, even plastics, by 2050. How do they expect this to be possible? Draconian governmental action combined with drastic semi-voluntary reductions in individual quality of life for all citizens. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay reads the Executive Summary of the UK FIRES “Absolute Zero” report (pdf, hosted by Cambridge University, by the way) to expose the unworkable, catastrophic insanity of their zero-emissions program in the UK and beyond, warning that it sets the stage for a Western Holodomor.

您可能聽說過「Net Zero」,這是一個不切實際的雄心勃勃的目標,即在相對不久的將來(2030 年,最晚可能是 2050 年)的某個時候實現溫室氣體淨排放。由著名的政府資助的英國工程師和科學家組織 UK FIRES 在2019 年提交的一份報告認為「Net Zero」還不夠,並正在推動一項名為「Absolute Zero」的瘋狂激進計劃,即到 2050 年實現絕對零排放。除此之外,到 2050 年,沒有航班、沒有貨櫃運輸、沒有紅肉消費、沒有水泥、沒有新的鋼鐵生產、沒有任何原因使用化石燃料,甚至包括塑膠。嚴厲的政府行動與半自願地大幅降低所有公民的個人生活品質相結合。在這一集 New Discourses 播客中,主持人 James Lindsay 閱讀了UK FIRESAbsolute Zero」報告的執行摘要,揭露他們的零排放計劃中那種不可行的、災難性的瘋狂,警告它會導致西方世界版大饑荒。

附加資料

減少能源使用 = 迎接貧窮生活

上面經常見到要能源使用減到今日水平的60%
但能源使用跟收入成正比,減少能源使用就是減少收入

只減西方國家的碳排放

跟「環保團體」只勸說個人用電減少但不怎麼管大公司/政府浪費電力一樣

「化石燃料」不是「化石燃料」

Oil & gas are not "fossil fuels". They are renewable hydrocarbons formed in the Earth's mantle. Gas is the cleanest energy source. CO2 is a fertilizer not a pollutant. Global warming and more CO2 means life explosion not extinction.

石油和天然氣不是「化石燃料」,它們是在地球地幔中形成的可再生碳氫化合物。天然氣是最清潔的能源。 CO2 是肥料而不是污染物,全球暖化和更多的二氧化碳意味著生命激增而不是滅絕
