Are you working towards net zero emissions by 2040?

Never going to make a difference here on this little farting island. We are only a speck in the world. It's out of our control.

If the car you own is the most beneficial to carbon footprint rather than buying a new one I presume it is best just to keep the fleet of tractors I have which ranges from 1959 to 2018. No fendts at £300k for me!

Not necessarily. It depends on what you spend the rest of your money on.

You lentil knitter you.

Don't assume Green as an ideology. I'm a nationalist.

For example ARM holdings based in Cambridge developed THE mobile phone chip for the past 2 Decades. But never made the Chip in the UK and was eventually sold to a Japanese Bank. Currently may be bought by NVIDIA in the USA.

Such companies should make products in the UK and be banned from being sold. All those taxes for all those jobs lost and the loss of UK power - horrific.

I’m sure I’m far from alone but I’ve really got no idea about any of it.

Yes, if all goes according to plan, by 2040 I'll be dead and emit nothing

Burial presumably then?

As I have said on here before, if you go far enough to the left you go right round the back and reappear on the far right .

I thought you were too young to be planning on that

When someone bans air travel I might take this seriously.

Farming is the more urgent issue. The AHDB are currently running a national media campaign pointing out that cows are responsible for more GHG emissions than air travel.

Not my planning! But I still reckon I'll have seen enough by 60

Na, I want to fly

What about carbon neutral air travel?

 

[DaveGrohl]

Na, I want to fly

Black carbon? You climate wrecker.

That meme really annoys me. The bottom panel should be blank except for the word "ever".

Well, my Carbons came from there, so they can go back, and I'll be complete

Nothing like being sabotaged by the people supposed to be working for us…….
Oh wait Red Tractor (thanks Nfu, adhb)
And carbon neutral by 2040 (who asked you Nfu?)

A lot will happen before 2040 i reckon but at the moment there is a commitment to reach net zero by 2040. I don't think its being industry led but imposed on us so we have to play by the rules. Easiest thing for HM gov to do is cancel all subs tomorrow and that would sort most of ag emissions out, i reckon that's what they will do if ag doesn't play the game by the rules they have set out so.
