A Guardian letter cites the Climate Change Committee’s 2025 seventh carbon budget estimate of £4bn a year to reach net zero by 2050, a 73% drop from its estimate five years earlier, and notes the Office for Budget Responsibility puts the public-sector cost at £70 per person per year. The writer states that the public overestimates the costs of net zero by up to 14,000%.
