Re: Policy driven

Net zero is pretty much entirely greenwashing. We're just shifting the emissions somewhere else like getting Poland to make the steel and turn it into foundations for new wind turbines. The carbon is on Poland's books, not ours.

Biomass, offsetting, carbon capture etc.. all just a way to make numbers look better on paper.

Actual reduction is the sensible way and we have come a LONG way with more efficient use of energy but we are on the flat bit of the bathtub curve.
