A recent UK government-commissioned report lays out sweeping measures to achieve the country's ambitious Net Zero emissions target by 2050. Among its most controversial proposals are the complete closure of airports, except for a few, and a ban on the consumption of beef and lamb. As the nation grapples with these drastic recommendations, the implications for everyday life and the role of governmental regulation in climate change measures provoke intense debate across the political landscape.
TPV: A new report from the UK government reveals drastic measures to meet Net Zero goals, including banning beef and lamb and shutting down airports.
These plans, aimed at reducing carbon emissions, are part of a broader push to combat climate change that have sparked intense debate over the role played by the World Economic Forum in domestic British politics.
A report from Oxford University and Imperial College London, commissioned by the UK Government, reveals drastic measures to meet the “legal commitment” of zero emissions by 2050. These include the closure of all airports, a ban on consuming beef and lamb, and a halt to the construction of new buildings.
The report states that all UK airports, except Heathrow, Glasgow, and Belfast, must close before 2029. These airports can remain open only if all transfers to and from them are made via rail. By 2030, all remaining airports must shut down as well.
To meet the legal commitment of zero emissions by 2050, the report emphasizes that UK citizens must “stop using airplanes” for a significant period.
The report also states that to comply with the Climate Change Act, the public will be required to stop engaging in any activity that causes emissions, regardless of the energy source. This will include giving up beef and lamb. National consumption of these meats is expected to drop by 50% between 2020 and 2029, with beef and lamb being “phased out” completely between 2030 and 2049.
Additionally, the report confirms that all new building construction must cease by 2050. The reasoning is that any carbon-using asset will have essentially zero value by 2050, potentially prompting a rush in construction over the next 30 years before the halt.
Released in November 2019 by ‘UK Fires’—a collaboration between Cambridge, Oxford, Nottingham, Bath, and Imperial College London, including Professor Neil Ferguson—the report, titled Absolute Zero, outlines what the UK must do to legally achieve net zero emissions by 2050. It paints a grim picture of the drastic measures needed.
This timeline may accelerate since, in April 2021, the government passed a new law requiring emissions to be reduced by 78% by 2035.
The authors of the report state the key messages are phasing out flying and renouncing red meat:
In addition to reducing our energy demand, delivering zero emissions with today’s technologies requires the phasing out of flying, shipping, lamb and beef, blast-furnace steel and cement.
They also state that buildings will become expensive and so will transport. Also, there will be no point training pilots of aeronautical engineers:
There are two key implications for how we live our lives: first, buildings will become much more expensive because the restrictions on building which generate substantial scarcities; second, transport will become much more expensive because the limits on air travel will generate excess demand for other forms of transport.
Those who are starting secondary school now, in 2019, will be 43 in 2050. Thinking about what education is appropriate for a very different set of industries is a key question. Should we still be training airplane pilots? Or aeronautical engineers?
And they state that the government will have to enforce behavioural changes in the population to reach the globalist agenda:
The changes in behaviour to achieve Absolute Zero are clearly substantial. In principle, these changes could be induced through changing prices and thus providing clear incentives for behaviour to change. The alternative is that the government prohibits certain types of behaviour and regulates on production processes.
The Expose reports: You may be wondering how on earth they are going to get the support of the public in shutting the airports and stopping the consumption of beef and lamb?
Well, we could argue they are already well on their way to ensuring the closure of many airports thanks to the draconian laws that the British people have been living under since March 2020 in the name of protecting the NHS and saving lives.
Is it just a coincidence that four months after the release of the report, the UK Government brought in the coronavirus act and implemented a national lockdown which has decimated the travel industry? A quick read through the report certainly suggests the real reason for lockdown may have been so that the Government can meet its legal commitment to reduce emissions.
They will get the support just as they got the support for implementing ridiculous, draconian laws under the guise of stopping the spread of Covid-19. Laws which have decimated small business, taken away our freedoms, and created what will be the greatest health crisis to have ever been due to turning the NHS into the National Covid Service and then the National Vaccination Service.
They managed all the above through psychological manipulation and coercion. That is not an opinion, it is fact, and it is all documented in official UK Government documents which you can read here, and here.
