UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres recently asked wealthy nations to bring forward the Net Zero deadline from 2050 to 2040. In response, the Competitive Enterprise Institute, a non-profit policy group that advocates for limited government, has published a memo urging GOP members of Congress to denounce the request as “alarmist”.
Fox News has the story.
The memo started by picking apart various claims from those who warn that global warming will lead to catastrophic changes to human and animal life. For example, it noted a short-term projection by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration that suggests global temperatures peaked nearly a decade ago in 2015.
“Despite this reality, we are told every day that every emission warms the planet. That is clearly not the case. We should not mindlessly and recklessly proceed with dangerous and expensive emissions cuts until this paradox is resolved,” the memo stated.
It then pointed out that a recent report from the Energy Information Administration… said the Biden administration will already fall well short of its goal of achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050.
