That’s true. Maybe they’re thinking ahead to a time when we might have

to
accept a change in lifestyle rather than trying to find “sustainable”

ways
to maintain our current ones.


Even full lockdowns only led to a 7% reduction in CO2 so the sustainability
part is little to do with personal transport and a lot to do with home power


and manufacturing it would seem.


I’m not sure there’s a sequitur there, but what the heck.


Whats the problem? Less people have been travelling during the lockdown hence
the reduction in admissions. Any increases in home power usage has been
offset by the reduction in office power usage so where does the other 93%
of emissions come from? Answer, normal home power usage regardless of lockdown
freight transport, manufacturing, construction and agriculture.
