- The UK government has been defeated in court - for a second time - for not doing enough to meet its targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
Environmental campaigners argued that the energy minister signed off the government's climate plan without evidence it could be achieved.
The High Court ruled on Friday that the government will now be required to redraft the plan again.
In response the government defended its record on climate action.

We need to reframe the discussion around saving humans, instead of the planet. The planet is going to be fine, no matter what. It has been here forever, and will be regardless of our stupidity. It is us who will suffer, struggle, and die.
To save humans, first you have to save wildlife and wilderness areas
@@MegaWilderness we had to clear the wilderness to grow food , and we are frantically trying to double the population , So more houses , less wilderness….
@@barneymagee3285 Why do we need more people, we are not endangered?
@@barneymagee3285 do you know a lot about this subject?
It's about the biosphere. Do you understand?
Carbon will be the least of our worries by 2050 & the Government is *well aware* of this
This government knows nothing
It's already too late.
carbon is the building blocks of all the worlds lifeforms. carbon is essential for life, even more than water
Its a Joke , they bombed Nord stream 2 pipeline releasing billions of tons of methane
@happyjonn9242 sunlight is also essential for life but if you spend a day on the equator in direct sunlight it turns out that it's not great for you. Salt is essential for the human body but if you consume 5kgs you will be quite dead. Moderation is needed for everything including CO2 and we are off the charts in terms of current levels.
Criminally immoral.
Imagine taking your car to a repair shop for restoration, but the mechanic lacks the skills and tools to complete the repair.
But the mechanic charged you full-price, nonetheless.
This is analogous to what we are witnessing with these bogus Climate drafts.
Except it’s costing us BILLIONS !
This is criminal
What has been happening for many years if you take a car to a franchised dealer to have routine maintenance done as specified by the manufacturer? A well-known consumer activist publication often does this having first applied spots of varnish to all the fasteners that will have to be undone and to all the parts that the maintenance schedule requires to be replaced by new ones. Guess what this publication nearly always finds?
if you're going to use metaphors it's more like buying a new Electric Vehicle and having 50% extra added to the cost while paying an annual charge and paying ULEZ as well, meanwhile HGVs (China) don't have to a pay a penny and get a government discount.
are you referring to the televisual licence fee that Brits have to pay for this horeshight?
It isn't criminally immoral, it is more to do with the anateurish nature of the clowns that call themselves politicians, they are stupid, not immoral. A very serious problem.
The world economic forum agender will not work.
How though?

Good to see the water vapour coming from the cooling towers. Good clean water.
Idiots will think it's smoke. I'm certain that was the intent.
Yes until they block the Sun out from my solar panels and then I have to use the grid. Happens every Summer.
What a load of nonsense 🤣
Shut up Tory boy.
Net zero is a national security risk is it not?
Imagine thinking the people in charge care about national security
:(
it is not
@@joso7228 it is so!
Mass immigration is also is a national security. The government has committed high treason and put us all in danger.
Its a global risk. Go look up current percentage of co2 in the atmosphere. Then look up minimum required for plant life to photosynthisize. We need more co2. Not less.
“Legally binding”. Notice these legal teams pick and choose what they fight for? Poor postmasters have been put through decades of hell.
If they could, the Tories would try to redefine the word ‘zero’.
Don’t be fooled. We are a small island and make up next to nothing compared to the likes of India/china/america. But they know British just put up with it now 😢
Your country doesn’t pollute as much because you decided to source from the countries you mentioned. Your demand fuels the pollution worldwide. If demand woudn’t be there, india/china woudn’t pollute as much!
Which is why each country have similar targets
@@MegaWilderness against the law…enforced how….just like putler world warrants. And can’t touch him. Don’t be fooled
Locked in their houses for two years without hardly a peep. , They’ll stand for anything…..😂
We buy the products China makes! We outsourced our pollution to others.
Trillions being spent on a fantasy you couldn't make it up.
It is the ultimate ponzi scheme for billionaires to profit from.
What organization is enforcing climate change in the UK courts against the government?
Why can't they also force the government to compensate people for vaccine injuries?
I expect trying to force the govt to do anything is extremely tiring, and that's where they see the priority. I don't know who's involved though, and would be interested to know more. I don't think you're going to get the same people to do both, but clearly there's something there to be learned from.
The people who own all the politicians and secretly run all the worlds governments from the shadows.

I like that piccy with all the steam vapour.its very good for plants trees animals and humans.

More people are going to be moaning about rising prices everywhere because of this ruling
only because people like you spread nonsense
There's loads of money as well you know.
It's who pays the lion's share is what's in dispute.
How can a court make laws!!!
The court does not make laws, it holds people to laws that the government has made. I suspect that in this particular case the government has made laws (that deviate from the views of many of its supporters) for the sake of its international reputation without any intention to actually implement them, and the court is holding it to them.
@@cedriclynch scrap the climate plan then
They should take corporations to court not government.
Get rid of ulez as a start
Unrelated matter - ULEZ is about a different form of pollution entirely.
Blame rishi sunak😐
People only react when it affects them. But by then they’ll be moaning about why nothing was done to prevent it. Some people do not want to pay for the future they just want to live for today, it would help if life wasn’t so expensive, and work wasn’t so badly paid.
Care about climate and environment? It is up to everyone to stop buying crap they don't need, to stop being wasteful, and to start holding powerful people accountable for their stupidity and greed.
Why would they when they have shares in old companies?
That picture of that power station is not pollution its steam .they must stop telling us all these lies .😵😵😵😵😵
What picture? I can't see anything like that in the video.
"Steam" hehe
Its not steam.
Oh, now I see - it's not in the video, it's in the thumbnail. Too small for me to see what sort of power station it is though.
@@honourthefire9182 Depends on the type of tower. The big cooling powers that produce white plumes are emitting water vapor which instantly condenses into micro-droplets: It's not steam, but it is water. More like fog, or cloud. Harmless. Not all power stations have those towers, it depends if they are built near an existing source of cooling water. The nasty stuff comes out from the furnace, which is elsewhere in a coal power station. Gas turbines look nicer because their emissions, though still terrible for the climate, are transparent to light in the visible spectrum - you can't see anything coming out unless you use an infra-red camera.
And also in 🇨🇳 they must stop these air pollutions because we want the future protecting and save the world and I want to see the year after 2100 and I want to be over 100 not only me but I am thinking the other kids etc for example Prince George was born 22th July 2013 and he also wants to become a supercentenarian in the future SO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT, SAVE PEOPLE AND SAVE THE WORLD 🌍❤️
How much do you think little Greece with its small number of people , contribute to global pollution ?
Είσαι σοβαρός ? 😂
What on earth do royals have to do with anything? Other than gobbling up more than their fair share of resources!
Get real, the likes of China do not give a dam, and they will wallow in our downfall, no guarantee anyone will live to a 100,
If it was really about the climate, and there was really a climate issue, air transport would be banned already and Greece would be bankrupt
@@angelozachos8777 NO, I confused sorry but you were right my dear friend
We should also do this in 🇨🇦
No Government or leader is above the law... but they will always think they are.
Britain currently has 39.3 GWh of pumped storage. There are 4 pumped storage stations in Britain. No meaningful storage capacity has been added to the grid since the 1980s, and there is no other large scale energy storage in the country.
To cover a cold dark still winter you would need to increase pumped storage capacity by a factor of about 1000 (taking into account pumped storage is about 75% efficient). So we would need to find 4000 suitable locations where a 300 to 400m dam can be built to hold back 10 million cubic metres of water, with a fall to the turbines below of about 400 metres.
Then we would have to build 160 of these every year, year after year, for 25 years.
The scale, and the massive cost of storage, by whatever method (pumped storage is one of the cheapest by the way), make it an impossible mission.
"Wind droughts" where electrical generation runs at 20% of capacity lasting 100 days or more can be expected once every 50 years. This would see a shortfall of 2TWh at current capacities.
665TWh electricity is projected to come from wind power in 2050 (National Grid). Current wind power 75TWh (2020).
350TWh of Hydrogen storage would exceed by a considerable margin the current annual electrical generation in the UK (~300TWh). It would also be more than 50% of electrical consumption in 2050.
Hydrogen storage is also one of the more expensive energy storage strategies at $203/MWh. Pumped storage $131/TWh with gas generated about half of the latter (At 2021 prices researched by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory).
Let's look at it another way. The Royal Society recommend the UK should have 100TWh of energy storage (it's currently 39.3 GWh from 4 pumped storage facilities). That's over a 2,500 fold increase. That means building 10,000 pumped storage facilities or 400 every year.
That's at the same time as increasing wind power generation from 75TWh (in 2020) to 665TWh (in 2050 - these are UK National Grid figures). That's around 100,000 giant wind turbines. And by the time you get to 2050, the 4,000 wind turbines you needed to install in 2025 would have reached the end of their working lives and will need to be buried in landfill, and replaced with another 4,000. It's all impossible and absurd.
This gouvernement has never been elected .Sunak , succeeded Truss without any legitimity .Can I give you as a French citizen an advice .Vote well .
Sadly we would only be voting for a different cheek of the same arse.
Can i give you some advise as a British citizen, go learn how our democracy works before commenting on things you know nothing about. There has never been an elected prime minister, we elect MPs it is purely traditional that the leader of the majority Party becomes PM
Let them eat Cake !
@@Duncan23 And you need to read up more, too as the leader of the Party is usually elected by the Party members. Unless, like Sunak - you are installed and not elected - in which case the Party members are ignored and you are put in place by a few hundred MPs. The fact that he is unelected stands - unlike Brown or May or others who took over, he was not voted in by the governing Party; Illegitimate.
@@Duncan23 May i suggest you follow your own advice.
Let us buy E vehicles at Chinese prices instead of DOUBLING the price.
you can now
Improving public transport and changing urban planning policies to reduce car dependency would be a far better option. Owning a car is very expensive - the car itsself, fuel, servicing, breakdown repair, insurance, and often a room of the house dedicated just to housing the car that could otherwise be put to better use. People could save a great deal of money if they didn't need to own a car in order to get anywhere.
@@vylbird8014 but the MG Cybester is so thrilling.
Life without thrill so dull and I'm beyond a horse these days.
They will just “legislate around it” no matter what any UK court says or does
The quantified global leader in pollution and carbon emissions has said it’s on a back foot and will not play to the rules of G7 summit, yet is posing more detriment than the amalgam of all other countries combined!
Wild guess which country this is eh? 🤷🏼♂️😬
Policy enforcement.. how about no
Pathetic.. Government when elected by the people should be able to do as they like and held accountablr only by the people not courts
incredible money
We are turkeys voting for Christmas.
We are turkeys when we bother to vote to elect M.P.s into office in a rigged Parliament in which the main Parties serve the same corporate/financial interests.
Won't accept comments on your other post about p lasmids and AND (reverse)
It has been proved that Parliament is sovereign and has the higher position in any negotiation with the courts. Wouldn't sovereignty give the GOV, permission to ignore/overturn the Court ruling?
Sort of. Yes, Parliament is sovereign - but there is one power which can restrict it. The power being Parliament itself. Parliament routinely passes contradictory laws, and laws in which it consents to legal action against the government to enforce those laws. So when that happens, this is the result. This is especially prone to happen when international agreements are involved.
Regardless of the outcome, it's always within Parliament's power to simply pass a new law to change the court decision. But this may be politically difficult if the government is not unified and there is opposition to the law, and it may also involve actions which are detrimental the the UK's international standing or create public backlash.
@@vylbird8014 Sometimes I believe our complex legal system needs modernising and simplifying from its ancient out dated laws...explanation appreciated.
@@lindamacro5945 There have been attempts, but it's never easy - all those complex laws were passed for a reason that made good sense at the time.

The UK going to net zero will not reduce globe green house gases, if fact its predicted green house gase will increase no matter if the UK goes to net zero or not.. it just another form on taxation.
we need to play our role
@joso7228 we need to fund the NHS, our educational system, and social care.. instead of taxing working people to death.
The global warming scam was invented by the Club of Rome in the early 1990s. It is an ingenious idea to steal trillions from the working class through climate taxes, turn them against each other, and eventually leave them in abject poverty. All climate taxes are paid into the Rothschild family bank in Switzerland. Welcome to the modern feudal system.
Turkeys voting for Christmas...
Stop giving excuses & try to move the goal post, when the UK, US & EU promised about Net Zero Carbon Emission target.
We need to nationalise ALL private companies so the profits made go BACK into our country as a renewable income always making profits always going back into our countries and being paid out to make all more profits SUNAK has tried his hardest to drain our financial pot by trying to provatise as many national systems as possible so the profits go to private companies back pockets rather than BACK into our countries finiancal hub for the good of our people
They dont give a f.
GREAT NEWS ! 😊❤ AT LAST...
What's a waste of money
Just scrap net zero. Problem solved. It won't make any difference on a global scale and much of it was about shifting emissions abroad anyway.
we are insignificant on the wotld stage .too smaii .
What is the size of Britain
In this case, population matters more than land area. That's 67 million people for the UK, including Northern Ireland. That's the 21st most populous country. China and India are tied for most populous though, with almost a third of global population in those two countries alone.

Our father has passed away, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who has been with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out to the street and saw the neighbors eating and stopped at their door to give them bread even if they broke it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them. And they came back crying. They were dying of hunger. No one had mercy on them.

British writer and explorer Captain F.V. Raper (of the 10th Bengal) has written an eye-witness account of gorkhyani in the Asiatic Researches (vol. xi.)
At the foot of the pass leading from Har Ki Pauri is a Gurkhali 'chauki' or post, to which slaves are brought down from the hills and exposed for sale. Many hundreds of these poor wretches, of both sexes, from three to thirty years of age, are annually disposed of in the way of traffic. These slaves are brought down from all parts of the interior of the hills, and sold at Haridwar at from 10 to 150 rupees.

Please be aware that C I A (US Central Intelligence Agency) has been using a terrible weapon (electromagnetic wave weapon) created by the Soviet Union about 70 years ago against the Japan people for more than 60 years, and that C I A (US Central Intelligence Agency) is still using that weapon against the Japan people today.
It seems that Japan also tell people in other countries that there is such a fact when they go abroad for study, business trips, sightseeing, etc. ( Telling people about this fact in Japan is punishable by the Japan government.)
Also, please let the people of the world know that there are Japanese people who have been suffering for over 60 years due to the inhuman arrangement between the CIA (American Central Intelligence Agency) and the Japanese government at the time.
