It might be true that the world needs to remove ten billion tonnes of CO₂ from the atmosphere every year but it’s never going to happen for many different reasons: technical, financial, social, environmental, governance, etc. If we don’t reduce CO₂ emissions, we’re screwed. That’s it.
Removing CO2 from atmosphere vital to avoid catastrophic tipping points, leading scientist says
10bn tonnes must be captured from the air every year to limit global heating to 1.7C, says Johan Rockström

All that effort, yet whilst the commission's conclusions about the harms caused by the Terrorism Act are correct, the report offers reformist changes but swerves the obvious conclusion – why don't we start to talk about abolishing the Act itself? www.middleeasteye.net/news/sweepin...

Opposing genocide is the moral duty of our time.
Yet Palestine Action activists have been held in prison for over a year without trial. Six are now on hunger strike.
Detaining peaceful protesters under counter-terror powers is indefensible. This is political imprisonment in all but name.

You could be forgiven for thinking that a corporate lobbyist & former Murdoch press hack may not have the best interests of public-service broadcasting at heart.
