Climate and energy analysts say that British publication The Telegraph’s admission that strict climate policies have had a disastrous impact on their nation is “better late than never,” with some welcoming the newspaper to the “reality” that even if a climate crisis existed, humans are powerless to stop it.
Analysts Weigh In
President and co-founder of The Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow Craig Rucker told The Center Square that “it’s refreshing to finally see the editor of a major British newspaper state the obvious: net zero has been an abysmal failure.”
Rucker said the author of the Telegraph’s article in question, Allister Heath, “gets it right – Britain’s pursuit of this radical Green fantasy has devastated industry, raised costs, and achieved absolutely nothing for the climate.”
Similarly, director of The Heartland Institute’s Arthur B. Robinson Center on Climate and Environmental Policy Sterling Burnett responded with “Better late than never, I guess” to the news of The Telegraph’s admission.
Burnett said, “Green colonialist actions and policies designed by Western elites to control the weather 50 or 100 years from now was an inane, quixotic quest from the start,” and that “it’s time to accept this sobering reality, cut our losses, cease tilting at (and building) windmills, ditch the despicable con that is net zero.”
