Scottish government ditches flagship climate change target as it accepts it is 'out of reach'

However, an "unwavering commitment" to achieve net zero by 2045 will remain.

They need to reduce emissions from hamza useless
The cracks in the Net Zero con are showing. How long before it gets canned all together?
I wonder if Humza "whiittte!" Useless will divert the funding from this to make mosques and Islamic schools more LGBT inclusive like he's mandated catholic and non denominational schools..... Nah just "whiittte!" people being criminalized for not going along that nonsense.

Everyone needs to dump all this green nonsense.
Hard to hit any targets reducing anything when millions arrive every year and need catering for.

Yes its the poor who are the problem, not the top 10% of the population who are responsible for the majority of emissions. Make it make sense

I make not a single excuse for the greedy rich and their excessive and extravagant living, however it’s not the responsibility of the poor who have struggled since before the Roman times to provide for the poor from everywhere else.
leave the targets till 2155

I hope this doesn’t mean they “hate “ the environment
We may live to regret shutting down our gas and fuel storage facilities. I assume that our frozen meat storage facilities in case of emergency have also been closed. Boris disbanded the Pandemic response group just prior to Covid.
Never in reach, ever!!
Think Westminster needs to get involved if Scotland cant get its house in order! Will the tax payers in Scotland be fined under the Paris agreement and failure to meets the laws set?

We all knew it wasn’t feasible when they first announced it 😂
Right then, so who is getting done for the spreading of misinformation this time ?
There is method to their madness though: by helping to increase global temperatures, the Scottish government hopes to lure holidaymakers away from Mallorca and Corfu. Troon will become the holiday destination du jour, with hundreds of thousands flocking there every summer, thereby boosting tourist revenue and the Scottish GDP.
At last the madness is starting to roll back.
Damage to the working class is done, to little to late.
Run out of money....op branch form ongoing...
It's a more honest estimate for sure.
One day the world will realise Nicola Tesla was right about the can use green renewable energy to source all of our power needs ❤️👊
It's certainly a bad day for the SNP 😅😂🤣
It only is if they give up!🙄
It’s ok we gave ourselves 6 years to live but could not afford it so we are giving ourselves another five years to live. It’s just as well it’s all a green con.
They were virtue signalling with the target, nobody with a brain believed they would reach it lol

Feel sorry for this girl. The world was supposed to end before she was even born. It must be depressing for all the green con brigade.
If the world's population has to be sacrificed to stsrvation and civil unrest due to zero targets, there is little point to having a world! My answer to the poster girl, whose commitment I admire and respect.
