It's like what George Carlin said. Left or right, it doesn't matter they all will repay the fossil fuel companies that funded their campaigns. Biden talked the same shit with Alaska and everyone are so stuck in Trump bad echo chamber that they refuse to hold the corrupt democrates just to protect the echo chamber.
So fucking absurd that the US is so warped that Democrats can be seen as left wing lmao. Such a good job the oligarchy and government done to make that a reality, truly impressive.

Every time I see a story like this, the more clear it becomes, at least to myself; some governments are ***absolutely*** planning on geoengineering to continue business as usual.
The following submission statement was provided by /u/conscsness:

>Making a visit to Aberdeenshire on Monday, Sunak claimed the move was “entirely consistent with our plan to get to net zero”, telling broadcasters that domestic supplies were significantly more efficient than shipping gas and oil from other countries.
while energy demand is growing.
I will not dispute the obvious rhetorical weapon in allusion to 'net-zero'. The bullshit is in plain sight. Here is a taste:
>She said: “The prime minister is firmly of the belief that we should use the resources that we have here at home, first and foremost.”
First and foremost we rape our local ecosystem before we go back, again, to other regions to do the same old dance. Here is another one:
>Saying that at least 100 new licences and possibly many more were expected to be awarded from the autumn, the press secretary argued this was “totally compatible” with the goal to achieve net zero by 2050, given fossil fuels would still be needed then, and domestic supplies required less transport.
Totally compatible with net-zero, but totally incompatible with having a somewhat sustainable ecosystem. Humans and economy first, the rest, well, technology, stupidity and secret joys of bureaucracy will deal with. Here is another one, now it comes from climate policy advisor who starts with common sense and finishes with logical fallacy.
>Oxfam’s climate policy adviser, Lyndsay Walsh, said: “Extracting more fossil fuels from the North Sea will send a wrecking ball through the UK’s climate commitments at a time when we should be investing in a just transition to a low-carbon economy and our own abundant renewables.”
Abundant renewables is a valid rhetoric when the EROIE of the social strata that depends on that abundant resource is low. UK social strata EROIE will not be sustained by those abundant renewables.
I juiced my brain enough with stupidity for today.\
First it was [Bjorn Lomborg](https://www.reddit.com/r/collapse/comments/15fcyfb/climate_change_hasnt_set_the_world_on_fire_how/judgv7n/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1&context=3) and now this.
Here is the submission statement to appease the 'big brother': Rishi Sunak's recent move to maximize oil and gas extraction from the North Sea has sparked widespread criticism from environmentalists and fellow politicians alike, who argue this "maxing out" policy is not only detrimental to the UK's climate commitments, but also poorly aligned with the sentiments of modern voters.\
Yet, Sunak contends that the move is consistent with the UK's aim to reach net zero, asserting that domestic supplies are more efficient than importing oil and gas.\
This comes amid escalating concerns over the collapse of social and biospheric systems due to unchecked climate change, exacerbated by such policies that encourage the continued use of fossil fuels over sustainable alternatives. Critics argue this short-sighted approach threatens not only the environment but the shift towards a cleaner, more sustainable future.

It's crazy how much world leaders want to speed head-long in collapse. There is no 'taking it slow', no 'let's see what happens and then decide', none of that. Who has time for things like that when there's only limited time to make even more money??!
