How could Wales get to net zero carbon emissions?

Greenhouse gas emissions from power stations will be "virtually" eliminated by 2035, the Welsh government claims.Only stations that have managed to install carbon capture technology will be able to continue to operate after 2035.New targets for green energy are to be set out - but are not in this plan.

Ministers said this would help them understand how feasible these were - and that it was important to focus on behavioural changes in the meantime. "We need to work out what the activities are that help us meet net zero and decarbonise our lives and work - from powering our cars, to heating our houses - all of that needs to move to other systems and so we've all got to embrace change."

The plan stops short of specifically calling for a cut in meat and dairy consumption, and urges instead a focus on buying local to support Welsh farmers.

Oh please, while China builds a coal fired power station every week, we look at our purchase of oranges The world or at least the media has gone stark raving mad.

Same as everyone else chasing this goal. Spending lots of tax payers money, and then still having to fix the figures.

'Net zero carbon' As a genius and schizophrenic rolled up into one hot mess, I discovered schizophrenic's are more likely to smoke cigarettes, when questioning why we can consider evolution: a lower oxygen saturation reduces brain function, be that smoking, war, or sealed room.

Electric car for Belfast lord mayor for the first timeCouncillors said a greener vehicle would show a commitment to tackling climate change. How nice for her.....but i'd rather 80K was spent elsewhere. Could always save a bundle of public money - and carbon footprint - by not having vanity positions such as Lord Mayor.
