In a world of 8 billion people, even if the UK vanished and had 0 carbon emissions tomorrow it wouldn’t make much difference.
The real issue is that it is taboo to mention the real issue: over population. There are just far too many people
It’s frowned upon because the “solutions” to overpopulation are immoral. Over population causing climate change is an idea funded and perpetuated by large companies who do not want to take blame.
If the UK stopped producing carbon emissions tomorrow, I promise it would make an enormous difference: we’re the 17th largest CO2 emitter despite having a relatively small population.
This is because: 1) average CO2 consumption of a person varies a lot by lifestyle: living more sustainably does matter, and, 2) the largest contributors to climate change are fuel companies, not individual people: many countries have much smaller carbon footprints (both total and per capita) because of their political choices. The best solution to climate change is political change and climate accountability, especially on the global scale.
