So who then? Because you’re saying not old as in adults or old aged like 60 yrs old dudes. When most of our ministers are Gen X and above I think.

The climate change agenda is the biggest scam to tax the poor and professional working classes in modern history. Scientists who have disagreed have had their funding removed, their professional articles left unpublished. China now pumps out more C02 than the rest of the world and along with India just keep building more coal powered power stations, our farmers are being forced to grow trees and flowers rather than plant the wheat we need - but don't worry because it means we've cut a deal with Brazil to cut down more rainforest and grow wheat and other crops we need there instead. electric cars are not environmentally friendly, try replacing your £15k battery when it expires, assuming it doesn't blow up and kill you when driving it. These are all schemes and taxes to make it so the under 40's don't own anything, instead you will just rent everything, cars, houses, pay to shop in a supermarket. Good luck everyone!

I don’t know if China and India are the only ones to blame in that they have a large population.

I would point towards looking at the USA for example (people always seem to forget them in this topic and simply remember China and India). You could argue that they are the worse as they produce the more CO2 emissions per capita unless I’m mistaken here.

I'm under 40 and I owe a house outright. Blaming environmentalists for your inability to create wealth for yourself is both clutching at straws and shows a complete abdication of personality responsibly.
