"Helpful" advice from right-wingers

The latest fashion in excuse for hurrying the world off the climate cliff is "energy security". A large deposit of natural gas has been found in the Mediterranean sea near Cyprus, and we are told it could give Europe "energy security", if only the dispute between Cyprus and Turkey does not prevent it.

We who are not ignorant are aware that the world has no room for any new fossil fuel infrastructure, nor is there any room in the carbon budget for burning any new discoveries of fossil fuel.

The intelligent way to resolve the dispute between Cyprus and Turkey about these fuel deposits is for the rest of the world to impose a decision that none of that gas will be touched!
