Growth will be a thing of the past if businesses choose ‘net zero’ emissions – ‘A blueprint for the extinction of capitalism as we know it’

“Before businesses embark on costly emissions cuts, they should read the fine print of the IPCC’s 1.5°C report. There, they will find a blueprint for the extinction of capitalism as we know it. Indeed, the 1.5°C report is the most ideological of any IPCC report so far.

The 1.5°C target, the report says, creates the opportunity for “intentional societal transformation.” In language closer to Sanders’s than any believer in capitalism, the IPCC says hitting 1.5°C implies “very ambitious, internationally cooperative policy environments that transform both supply and demand.”

There was more rationality to Soviet-style central planning, which at least had the aim of producing something of value rather than producing nothing.
