Climate News of the Week: Is Net Zero WIPING OUT British Industry? | Cox & Littlewood
Description: It’s Climate News of the Week on the Cox & Littlewood Show, as our regular guest Anika Sweetland joins us for another look at the stories driving the climate and Net Zero debate.
This week, the focus is on INEOS and British industry, after Sir Jim Ratcliffe cited soaring UK gas prices as production was temporarily shut down at three plants in Hull. The discussion examines claims that UK gas prices are dramatically higher than those faced by competitors in the US and China. anik
Are Net Zero policies making it impossible for British industry to compete? And if manufacturing simply moves abroad to countries using more carbon-intensive production, does that actually achieve anything for global emissions?
Anika and the team discuss the impact on skilled British jobs, energy costs, the economy and the argument that the UK could be exporting both its industry and its emissions rather than reducing them. anik
Plus, Anika and Cox get into the wider climate debate, CO₂, carbon saturation and why challenging the prevailing narrative continues to provoke such fierce reactions.
Another lively Climate News of the Week on Cox & Littlewood.
