Britain Considers Banning Gas Heating And Cooking To Reach Net-Zero

gas stove burnersHomeowners could be forced to replace their gas boilers to ensure the UK meets its target to be carbon neutral by 2050, ministers are warning.

The Government will publish a White Paper later this year which will set out the “bigger decisions” that the UK has to make to meet the target.

Lord Duncan of Springbank, the Climate Change minister, said that the White Paper will consider whether the Government should ban gas central heating altogether from all homes.

It is not clear if homeowners will have to pay for this new strategy – which is planned to be introduced incrementally over the next decade – and whether there are enough plumbers to carry out the work.

You see, it really doesn't matter what they ban, because there will always be something else that will move to the top of the list.

Perhaps the Brits can pick up some pointers on using animal dung fires from some of their former colonial interests.

They'd bet beat the rush, because it won't be long before that and sunlight are all that's left to warm them.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Insanity.

But not to worry.
Once "Great Britain" becomes "Britanistan" -- not that many years away -- the muzzies (who come from warmer climates) won't put up with this nonsense and will get rid of most or all "green laws" and environmental regs...
