"The #ReformUK-run council in West Northamptonshire is systematically removing all references to #ClimateChange and #NetZero from its strategies, website and documents – while simultaneously continuing to take Government cash for green projects. The move follows the council scrapping its net zero targets, in a controversial decision that sparked local protests."

Financial TimesThe UK announces the final go-ahead on the £38 billion Sizewell C nuclear plant project.
The UK government, the largest shareholder in the project, said Sizewell C, in eastern England, will cost around £38 billion (€44 billion) to construct.
The UK has pivoted toward nuclear power since the start of the war in Ukraine, citing energy security, net zero and the need to modernise its ageing power stations.

POLITICOI think what is spooking the bazillionaires is the approaching human zero population growth (oh, let's call it #NetZero!!) For the 1st time since the beginning of the industrial age, it looks like sometime in the 2080s world population growth will hit zero.
I suspect we really need to use "net', because it appears to be caused by… bazillionaires, via all the reasons you mention (plus farming us plebes with our pension plans, our retail investing) and induced #ClimateChange causing war.
"I see glimmers of hope. For example, an economy-wide carbon price, long recognised by economists as the lowest cost way of achieving net zero, is appearing in many conversations."
#NickiHutley, economist, 2025
Many years ago, some political economists wrote about feeding the revenue from a carbon price into a pool that funds a UBI. So everyone's purchases are subsidised, but carbon-intensive stuff gets more expensive. Clever.
