EU energy and environmental policy is placing enormous costs onto the economy. This paper not only explains why the European Union has embraced the idea of Catastrophic Anthropogenic Climate Change - CACC - but in this precision research the false phantom of CACC is also slain.
The EU, in its bid to save the corporates from disaster, clasped the fantasy of CACC to its bosom. This gave them kudos among the large and powerful motley crew of Green politicians, Green NGOs and lobby groups; to whom Stanley Baldwin’s words aptly apply: “enjoying the privilege of the harlot down the ages—power without responsibility”.
Unfortunately, aside from those within its power such as the UK, no country outside the EU has taken CACC very seriously, least of all the BRICS. Indeed they have benefitted and profiteered from the EU’s apparent gullibility and desire to commit economic suicide. The result has been escalating energy prices for the EU and its industry migrating to countries outside the EU where energy is cheaper: the very opposite of what it had hoped to achieve. Germany, for example, is now facing an industrial energy crisis of staggering proportions. The EU is committed to spending £200 billion annually on ‘fighting climate change’.
Yet the basis for this cost is false.
