One reply to “The world is aiming for net zero. (Here’s why it will make life more expensive)

  1. Wow, what an eye-opener of a post! I really appreciate how you laid out the challenges of moving towards net-zero emissions. It’s a tough balancing act between saving the planet and managing our wallets. The stats on how energy costs could rise really hit home, especially when we’re all feeling the pinch with daily expenses – food, transport, everything feels like it’s getting pricier, right?

    But here’s my burning question: Do you think younger generations will prioritize environmental sustainability even if it means paying more for basic necessities? I mean, like, how far are we really willing to go for the planet? It’s super relevant ’cause we’re often stuck in that mindset of wanting immediate comfort versus long-term benefits. Plus, with the hustle and bustle of our everyday lives here in Singapore, it’s a real dilemma we’re facing. Wanting to do better for the Earth but also managing the financial pressure is a struggle many in our generation have to navigate! What do you think?
