'Our independent advisers, the Committee on Climate Change (CCC), have made it clear that GGRs will be essential to realising this target, to offset remaining emissions in the sectors where it is most difficult to cut them.' - in other words, taking the 'needs' (more accurately, 'desires', 'requirements' or 'coercive demands') of industrial corporate capitalism for granted and the continued existence of a living biosphere as that which must adapt to said 'needs', or more likely be bartered away to nothing. Here's the CCC's wording:
'Even with full deployment of known low-carbon technologies and behaviours some UK emissions will remain, especially from hard-to-treat sectors: aviation, agriculture and parts of industry. Reaching net zero (and possibly net negative) emissions will require technologies to remove greenhouse gases. The UK should pursue a strategy to develop options in both hard-to-treat sectors and greenhouse gas removals, domestically and in collaboration with wider global efforts' p.11 - https://www.theccc.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/UK-climate-action-following-the-Paris-Agreement-Committee-on-Climate-Change-October-2016.pdf
It should be crystal clear by now that aviation, industry and agriculture (at least on an industrial scale) are completely incompatible with the needs of the global climate and a healthy living planet. They should be consigned to history as soon as humanly possible, but the psychos in charge have made their priorities clear. They will seed the ocean and dim the sky before considering any move that will drop GDP by a fraction of a percent.
#### everyone involved in this, I hope the shame of what they do dogs them all their lives and finally swallows them whole.
jeers,
