Look the UK in terms of CO2 emissions per person is one of the biggest polluters and contributors to global warming.
But of course the biggest emitter of all, per person, is the USA. But whilst the USA is currently on fire due to rising temperatures, their president Donald Trump is in denial of climate change and refuses to take any action, in fact he is on course to continue to increase CO2 emissions in the USA.
But the reality is that man made climate change is happening and we need to reduce our emissions.
There already is demand for solutions, that demand will increase rapidly over the next decade. Many complain the cost of reducing emissions is too high and will damage our economies – whereas the clear reality is that not doing anything will cost many times more.
Where there is demand there is opportunity. The smart thing to do is to develop the solutions and implement them, in turn becoming world leaders in emission reduction on the road to a carbon neutral economy. The big economic growth over the next two to three decades will be in the new energy and recycling markets. Those who have the solutions will sell them round the globe.
