The Seventh Carbon Budget, covering the period 2038 to 2042, has been well covered by the media, so you are probably aware of the major recommendations. By 2040 we must:



Cut GHG emissions by 75% from current levels

Have three quarters of cars on the road  electric
Drive less

Make half of homes have a heat pump, meaning effectively a total ban on gas boilers by 2035

Reduce consumption of meat and dairy by a quarter.

Put Potential limits on flying
 

And we are all supposed to do this while the rest of the world does nothing!

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.
