What is a culture war? Are greenies like us now fighting one? Are we… the baddies?

All questions we must, regrettably, now grapple with, because a phalanx of Tory MPs – ably assisted by their outriders in the shite-wing media – are labelling ‘net zero’ advocates as woke-ist elites, determined to heap misery on the poor.

So who are these finger-jabbing inhofes, and how much support do they have? Why do they hate climate action so much? Do they… have a point?

Show notes:
* Excellent Guardian piece on Net Zero Watch
* 538 Podcast – ‘Americans aren’t as polarized as the news makes it seem‘
