Climate crisis: UN Secretary-General Guterres says the case for fossil fuels is collapsing

The "35 by 35" target is a deceptive infrastructure shell game. Forcing the global economy onto the power grid does not eliminate fossil fuels; it simply centralizes the burning of coal and natural gas upstream at the power plants to keep the turbines spinning. The climate apparatus sells this as an environmental transition, but it is actually a thermal laundering pipeline that shifts emissions from individual tailpipes straight to centralized utility monopolies.
<br>For the average citizen, this creates a brutal economic choke point. You are forced to discard traditional machinery, invest in expensive electric hardware, and absorb surging electricity tariffs at the socket. The underlying fuel source remains embedded in carbon, but the consumer is transformed into a captive revenue stream for state-backed power providers who hold absolute control over pricing and consumption. When you strip away the green theater, the entire mandate boils down to three things: Vanity, Capital Extraction and Revenue Collection.

Claims of being on track are a total farce when the math intentionally deletes military emissions from the net-zero ledger. This entire green narrative is just a disguised revenue collection scheme to squeeze everyday citizens. You cannot claim an existential emergency justifies extracting aggressive carbon taxes and airport levies from regular people while the state&#39;s heaviest fuel burner gets a total free pass off the books. If this were truly about saving the environment rather than capturing public cash, they would stop hiding massive defense emissions behind rigged statistics and force peacetime green fuel mandates on their own machinery first.
