The article, below, contains a lot of points about how our lives are going to be restricted in the attempt to reach net zero, but the main point about the rich paying a heavy price is not quite right as we will all be paying a heavy price, but it is the middle class who will face the worst of the restrictions as it is they who will find they cannot afford to run their car, heat their home, go on holiday. The rich will still be able to do these things, as a complete ban on private jets, heated swimming pools, etc. would simply drive the rich abroad and no government would want to risk that.
The only way the government will be able to claim they have achieved net zero is by claiming that vast amounts of CO2 have been removed from the atmosphere. This will result in a number of schemes coming forward to do this, but this will come at a huge price leaving the question of how this money will be found. I expect some will come from the taxpayer in the form of subsidies and some added to our bills.
I will wait and see how they try to hide it. I make one prediction, which is that these schemes will lead to scams as a result of either they will simply not work, or even worse they will prove completely fraudulent, as have some of the schemes to "off set" carbon emissions.
