The UK’s climate laws forged a path for others to follow. But as progressive nations commit to zero emissions, it must reclaim its leading role, writes Sweden’s deputy prime minister.
What does it mean for a nation to be a “climate leader” in 2018?
At the very least, it must mean having a firm plan in place to deliver your nation’s fair share of the Paris agreement. During that stunning fortnight in December 2015, 195 governments freely and willingly committed not only to keep global warming well below 2C, but to aim for the safer level of 1.5C. And they committed to bring net greenhouse gas emissions down to zero.
Within a generation, Sweden will not be contributing to the problem of climate change. Science tells us that if all nations adopt this target, there is a good chance that we will live up to the commitments that we made at the Paris summit, and keep climate change within safe boundaries.
Certainly it is not acceptable for any government or statutory adviser to say that net zero cannot be done. It has to be done – because as long as we continue emitting carbon dioxide, temperatures will continue to rise.
Ten years ago, the UK won the gratitude of many other nations, including my own, by adopting the Climate Change Act. But science and diplomacy move on; and when the IPCC and the Paris agreement are telling us that greenhouse gas emissions need to reach net zero by mid-century, it is incumbent on us all to reflect that in our national programmes. That, at the very least, is what it means in 2018 to be a “climate leader”.

Every living thing is made from carbon dioxide!!! If the CO2 goes away, so does the oxygen. How can anyone be this ignorant???
So the tin-foil hat people are correct. The "progressives" intend to kill everyone.
Dickens’ time was certainly not one of zero emissions.
You know, the ol’ herd ‘em into camps and process thing.
Save some money endless supply of shum for sharks I hear the are gathering in the north Atlantic?.
According to noted authorities, like expert-on-everything Maxine Waters, sharks still congregate along the routes of the slave ships from Africa... They have had thin pickings for the last 200 years, so, we could bump the ecology. That old “thinking outside the box” thing...
We could bump the ecology and get a thumbs up from the tree kissers good idea.
That’s a good strategy for those on the globalist left to adopt.
I think the writer wants everyone in England to stop breathing...
Ban burps and farts!
To the Guardian and climate fascists:
More Algore BS!
Hope you’re all staying warm!
A bit chilly where you are? I suspect Algore is becoming a tad frosty AND grumpy since his Globalist, NWO GLOBALONEY WARMING SCAM is falling apart before his eyes. Not to worry about old Al. The $500 million or so he’s scammed over the years will allow him to stay snug - not to mention crazy - as the proverbial bedbug he’s become.
(Am I the only voter who believes that Trump has understood all that from the get go and why he pulled out of the Paris Accord and will hopefully renounce the Montreal & Kyoto Protocols?)
But enough about Algore and his cohort of would-be executioners of “climate deniers”.
Watch a few minutes of the video at the link if you want to fully grasp what’s coming for planet earth. You’ll see that it’s NOT caused by CO2 (which occurs AFTER the planet becomes warmer): That warming is caused by - surprise, surprise - that big ball of flaming gas you see when you look up. And, no, I’m not talking about the gaggle of politicians on Capitol Hill. We’re talking about the S.U.N. which is now settling into ANOTHER period of reduced activity called a “solar minimum”. Historically, those periods have ALWAYS resulted in a COOLING of the earth, many of which have brought about MASSIVE population reductions and the destruction of earlier civilizations.
So, stock up on the “stuff” you think you may need and get out those long johns because, as the old-timers up East used to say, “It’s gonna be a long, cold winter.” Think YEARS or DECADES!
There are some graphs starting around 3:30 that tell the story.

PS: Why have we NOT heard the INTERNATIONAL FAKE NEWSERS telling us about this? You suppose it’s because IT DOESN’T ADVANCE THEIR CO2 DEINDUSTRIALIZATION NEW WORLD ORDER AGENDA?
PPS: I’m taking wagers as to WHEN Algore and his fanatical fans will SWITCH the story over to the “INCONVENIENT TRUTH “ of GLOBAL COOLING!
Erma Gawd. These people have gone friggin nutso
She wrote that..... countries with $$$$ and technology will 'naturally' be expected to take the lead.....we can 'accelerate' changes with specific financial $$$$$ such as 'taxing' ....
Oh she 'colored' it all in with twisted language.....but she's going after the MONEY!!!!!...... She's also brown nosing the UK because 'Brexit' revenues would affect the EU'S overall control of collecting and paying the carbon tax's...
Here's Isabella front.... and her crew....
