Benny Peiser: “The political consensus around climate is broken”
Benny Peiser, director of the Global Warming Policy Foundation for the last 15 years, gave a talk for the Clintel Foundation in The Netherlands in late November.
Peiser gave examples from around Europe showing how the Net Zero agenda is crumbling down. He also talks about international climate policy after the Trump election. And who is going to pay for the promised 300 billion a year at the COP29 in Baku?
This is a must see talk. As Benny said to me: “This is the first time in all those years that people start listening to us.”
Is the Net Zero agenda really nearing its end?

After decades of emphasis on rapid and far-reaching emission reductions, he sees clear signs of a shift toward greater realism and pragmatism, including in climate reporting. After all, economic, technological, and social realities are becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.
