Why we cannot afford not to get to Net Zero

WHAT is Net Zero, and can we afford it?

- Bob Johnson.

Award-winning science communicator Dr Simon Clark explains that it's not about stopping oil and gas production, but rather balancing the amount of greenhouse gas released into the atmosphere with the amount removed.

Scientists (whose predictions have been accurate so far) agree that achieving Net Zero is essential to avoid catastrophic climate change, such as floods, wildfires, droughts, sea inundation and food shortages.

However, powerful corporations profiting from fossil fuels are actively working against this transition; by financially supporting populist politicians who use various deceptive tactics to exaggerate the cost of Net Zero.
