I'm paraphrasing Michael Shellenberger, author of "Apocalypse Never: Why Environmental Alarmism Hurts Us All" (goodreads.com).

He made an excellent point on Tucker's show last week. The climate change narrative encourages more government control. It gives opportunity for government money to be funneled into your crony friend's hands. Why would the political elite want to end that?

So they keep pushing wind and solar power which is a pipedream. If they were serious about climate change, they wouldn't be flying on private jets to summits. They would be building nuclear power plants.

UK government - The rest of the world is bad for doing nothing about globo homo warmo.

Also the UK government - No more solar panel funding because free electricity is bad for energy suppliers.

Same thing happened in Florida. POS energy companies got it written into law that home solar energy producers couldn't sell the excess power they produced back. They even got it set up so that they actually get paid for any losses to their revenue from people not using as much electricity from them due to having solar systems.

The UK used to fund and pay for excess energy from domestic solar panels, but now they stopped it.

Given that solar panels pay themselves off in about 20 years, there's no reason why 1st world governments can't include them as a standard on all new houses other than corporate greed.

"...no reason..." Oh, but there is. And we're right back to those previously mentioned rice bowls again, aren't we.
