The Earth is still warming up from the last ice age. It's natural. It's what it does. The last 20 years? Absolutely nothing in terms of the age of this planet. How is anyone going to stop Chlamydomona

Better tell the Chinese. This country, in the grand scheme of things, is responsible for very little and yet it's costing the inhabitants dearly and will cost them more as time goes on. The hysterical march towards an unachievable goal is futile because the world will not change its ways and nature will do what nature does. Man will have no say in that and it's arrogant in the extreme to think he will. Potty.

The main flaw in this is that it isn't even addressing what I'm saying. I'm not asking us to control natural climate change (although I would point out that our activities disrupt this anyway, eg through large-scale deforestation). I'm asking us only to control *our* influence on the planet, which is considerable.

In that case, firstly I'll take the opportunity to re-emphasise it anyway, and secondly wonder why your reply included "nature will do what nature does" when we both agree I'm not talking about that.
I also want to clarify that my use of "we" is humanity as a whole, not the UK: which obviously can't solve this on its own. That said, I don't accept that moving towards a greener economy is a "dear" cost, to the UK or anyone else, when done right. Properly, it's an investment in local jobs and industries. You can think, for example, of the recent announcements about new factories decided to electric car batteries.

the world will simply have to transfer to sustainable energy at some point… it is a question of “when” and not “if” because our current model is unsustainable and therefore will not be sustained
it is really is a question of doing it early and easy or late and hard. the later we leave it the harder and more painful it will be. but we cannot and will not go on as we are because it is impossible.
