Mark Carneys Economic "Lookahead" Lecture Becomes Unhinged on NetZero says Friends of Science Society
Summary
Friends of Science hosted Dr. Benny Peiser of the Global Warming Policy Foundation of the UK on April 09th, 2024, who showed the extent of Europes NetZero rebellion. Political parties are facing defeat over expensive and ineffective NetZero policies as consumer interest focusses on the cost of living and deindustrialization; climate has become a minority issue for voters. Ironically, Dr. Peiser showed in his NetZero Rebellion presentation that, as reported by The Telegraph, May 31, 2023, "Boilergeddon" in Germany, was sparked by powerful public resistance to an effort to impose heat pumps over gas boilers. There was no mention of any such concern in Mr. Carneys speech, though he did briefly refer to the Bank of Canadas recent call to [break the glass and ramp up productivity. Friends of Science Society reached out to retired energy economist and former federal public servant, Robert Lyman for comment, which he sent by email: "Every single one of the so-called "clean energy" exports is from a source that is heavily subsidized by Canadian taxpayers, to the tune of billions of dollars.
