Greenlash is defined as a backlash against clean energy transition. Others, such as farmers that have been straddled with restrictions, call it reverting to common sense. In the European Union there has been quite a protest movement pushing back and in Belgium farmers won that battle.

Now it is moving to politics. The New York Times recently reported. “After years of political consensus on the transition to cleaner energy, a ‘greenlash’ began bubbling up as prices rose and right-wing candidates gained ground.”

When The New York Times starts to wonder if the world has given up on fighting climate change, maybe it’s time to believe them? The paper’s “Climate Forward” event the other day featured a New York Times staffer sounding forlorn that we’ve missed “the one chance we have to save the one planet we’ve got.”

Dr. Benny Peiser of The Global Warming Policy Foundation has been following NetZero efforts for years, and he joins us as a special guest.
