One of the biggest mis-statements from COP26 is "50% of the carbon reductions needed to get to net zero will come from technologies that have not yet been invented"
This is rank, arrant nonsense. It is exacly the same as saying, "I can continue smoking 40 a day, because Doctors will find a cure for cancer."
I wonder who would propose such an idiotic idea? The answer, my friends is the fossil fuel industry! Yes. They are stating that they are working hard on 'new' technologies to capture carbon. If these, mythical and unproven, technologies work, then we can happily continue using fossil fuels in the knowledge that this will all be fixed 'sometime' in the future.
Gosh. We are so lucky that Exxon, BP and Shell are looking out for us, and we don''t have to do a single thing. Just keep using their products as we do today, without change. Because it will all be OK, at some stage in the future (maybe)
