The UK's Climate Change Commission warned the government that the country would head to disaster unless it quickly stepped up efforts to address so-called “climate risks.” [emphasis, links added]
They claim that in their latest progress report on adaptation:
The impact of climate change is becoming increasingly obvious, both globally and in the UK. Adaptation is now needed to ensure that the extreme weather today and the severity of risks in the future increases rapidly. The cost of these impacts has been felt, and risks continue to grow even if international targets for limiting global warming are met. Action is needed now, and we still have the opportunity to address these risks in a cost-effective and timely manner. ”
They talk about 2050:
• More than half of England Main Farmland, one-quarter of houses, half of roads and railways will be at risk of flooding;
• On average, heat-related deaths may die within 10,000 years;
• Unchecked climate change may account for 7% of GDP.
Such absurd claims, in fact, have no basis, suggest that CCC is a body that we should not take seriously.
Their statements about floods ignore the reality that only a few thousand real estates are affected by floods each year, and According to official data from the Environment Agency, the figures have no upward trend.
The UK climate has not changed over the past 25 years, so it is almost impossible to do so in the next 25 years.
The season when the summer mortality rate is the lowest is not thousands of people dead. As for 7% of GDP, which is equivalent to about £140 billion per year, it is obviously ridiculous.
In fact, the UK’s climate has not changed over the past 25 years, so it will be difficult to do this in the next 25 years.
We have had several hot summers in recent years, but not the heat of 1976 or 1995. The wettest years were in 1872, 1903 and 2000.
We are used to such stupid intimidation stories, the promise of the Mediterranean summer, the end of the snow, and so on.
In February 2012, then-environment secretary Caroline Spelman told us that drought is now perhaps the new norm before the wettest summer.
Four months later, the “scientists” said that the dull, wet weather of that summer was all the consequences of climate change!
The latest report from the CCC is just another attempt to market through its climate agenda, which has already done a huge harm to the country, is a fact that the British public is beginning to wake up.
footnote: The Baronogue, chairman of the Adaptation Committee, who launched the report, remains a non-executive director of Ceres Power (the developer of Green Hydrogen) and Orsted (Danish Wind Energy Corporation), Both companies can make a lot of money from climate panic.
Pure coincidence, of course!
However, Ørsted announced yesterday that it will suspend its Hornsea 4 project in the UK in its current form. As the 2,400 MW Hornsea 4 project has seen some adverse developments as the 2,400 MW Hornsea 4 project is already seeing some unfavorable developments related to the continued increase in supply chain costs, higher interest rates, and the increased risk of building and operating Hornsea 4 on a planned schedule.
