Fly Less and Eat Less Meat to Save Planet, Government Science Chief Tells Brits
The Government’s Chief Scientific Adviser Sir Patrick Vallance has said Brits should fly less and eat less meat as part of the “behaviour change” required to achieve Net Zero carbon dioxide emissions by 2050. The Telegraph has more.
Sir Patrick Vallance has warned against Net Zero fear mongering and said he has not stopped eating meat or flying.
âItâs important that the messaging [on climate change] isnât designed to cause fear or upset, it should be about making sure people understand what the situation is,â the Governmentâs Chief Scientific Adviser told a House of Lords committee on Tuesday.
âWe should not aim to frighten people because thatâs not helpful, but we should aim to enable people to understand what actions they can take.â
Sir Patrick said that people need âclear and specific guidanceâ about what they can do to help tackle climate change.
Policies to reach Net Zero by 2050 have so far stopped short of encouraging behaviour change such as flying less or changing diets, but the Government has established an environmental ânudge unitâ to work out how to persuade people into green behaviours.
Sir Patrick said it was âunarguableâ that getting to the Governmentâs target of Net Zero carbon [dioxide] emissions by 2050 would require behaviour change, and said he had already changed some of his own habits.
âIâm eating less meat, I cycle to work and I fly less than I used to. I havenât said I stopped flying or I donât eat meat; I do. I think itâs about reduction, and appropriate reduction across society,â he said.
âIndividuals need to know what is expected of them, as well as making that easy for them.â
Funny how Government policy these days seems to come down to the population stopping doing things they enjoy for the sake of some urgent collectivist goal identified by the experts with their models.

I wondered when this charlatan would surface again. He should get back in his dank cave with his mate Witless, another waste of oxygen.
âIndividuals need to know what is expected of them”
Indeed, Sir Patrick.
How about responsible and honest behaviour in high office?
How about not assuming that you are the lord and master of the public, rather than their servant?
âIndividuals need to know what is expected of themâ
By 2030, to own nothing and be happy!
Vallance and his Globalist millionaire chums excepted of course. More like ‘own everything and be greedy for more’!
Yep – it would be a whole lot easier if he would just come out and say it instead of all the hinting at it which a lot of people won’t get.
Patrick Vallance, the individual, needs to know that he will never fly again, will never eat out again and will live the rest of his corrupt, criminal existence within 30 miles of his current abode. He has no right to appeal, no right to legal due process and will be locked up in Belmarsh until he commits suicide or dies of natural causes if he breaks the terms of his new pointless life.
Vallance never accepted his academic equal Mike Yeadon’s challenge that he was lying and knew he was lying about every aspect of the “Covid Scamdemic”
Yeadon told Vallance to sue him for his claim and get the debate into the open.
Vallance has zero credibility – but lots and lots of money.
I’m eating belly pork tonight and thinking of buying a 1950’s Cadillac. And I signed my local Greens election nomination papers. Just dissent and refuse. And enjoy life.
You can keep your Cadillac. My Dodge Viper, when I can afford to top it up, is a much better ride.
Well done you. I just ordered a second ‘half a lamb’ from a UK organic farm a week or so back, having ordered half a lamb and half a pig back in November.
Snooty-nosed Vallance can whistle for all the notice I will take of his self-righteous entitled hectoring. I trust he won’t be in the Royal Box at Wimbledon this year after all his Coronavirus pseudo-science has been demonstrated to be fraudulent rubbish. It wouldn’t do for the AELTCC to be associating themselves with fifth rate failures, after all.
Enjoy chicken dinners before they kill them all with their planned “Bird Flu”scam !
They ought to be able to get the price of a surviving bird up to ÂŁ30 quite easily with fuel and feed inflation as well!
Be sure “Porker” Johnson will not be going without !
Remember he was the top of Fauciâs list of people to contact when he wanted to suppress the story of the Wuhan lab leak.
He has been utterly discredited as a scientist. Why on earth is his ilk still listened to? He should be ashamed to show his face in public, let alone be making statements like this.
He is listened to by the ignorant Westminster village and Whitehall paper pushers because he has a title: ‘Chief Scientific Advisor’.
He is scribbled about by the MSM because as prostitutes, their chief pimps reside in the Westminster Village. Only deluded sheep continue to be their punters.
He believes in net zero. He’s an idiot. I bet he won’t be giving up steak. It’s the little people who need to abandon hope.
Precisely. As far as I am concerned anybody spouting “net zero” is a WEF harlot, a dishonest idiot and not worth paying attention to.
I expect he’ll be going pescatarian, with Caviar, turbot, salmon and some nice Essex natives (oysters, that is); all washed down with the finest English sparklings.
Criminals and gangsters often live high on the hog, before Nemesis catches up.
Last summer he was partaking in whatever the Royal Box feeds its occupants on Centre Court.
I trust the AELTCC realises he is a fifth rate discredited fraudster before they extend him another invitation…..
But he’s ‘among friends’ there , isn’t he?
When the people telling me that climate change is an emergency start behaving like it’s an emergency, I might take notice.
Bill Gates’ mansion by the ocean in San Diego says it all.
He doesn’t believe in net zero. He believes in imposing it on the peons.
I’d look at his bank accounts before calling him an idiot. I expect he doesn’t believe in ‘net zero’ at all.
He does believe in ‘Let them eat cake’ for the plebs, though.
I wouldn’t fancy his chances during a Peasants’ Revolution….
Very important to catch Vallance in the equivalent of ‘Party Gate’.
Anyone who sees him ordering meat in a restaurant: take a photo, go over and challenge him recording it all on your iPhone and make sure it goes viral.
Anyone who sees him at an airport, do the same. If he is flying first class, his career is over.
If he uses private jets, he needs locking up in Belmarsh.
Vallance needs to be the human guinea pig spending 5 years eating Gates’ factory-made insect food.
He believes in all that rubbish, so he can live the life according to all that rubbish.
There are a few things they can do before “abandoning hope”.
Perhaps a Net Zero Salary is best for this grubby speculating creep. I’d like to see evidence of his cycling to work, such as from where to where.
As for eating less meat, he’s off my shopping list when we become cannibals, and I won’t be consuming any Soylent Green if he’s an ingredient.
Well, mum always told me to eat all the greens!
Even the recycled ‘ooman ones?
“Perhaps a Net Zero Salary”
Everyone will soon learn the true meaning of that phrase sooner or later.
Except those like him that will carry on pretty much as usual.
I expect so.
You know so.
I agree, and Mr. Brand [not everyone’s cuppa tea] also gets it…

Fortunately he has a 5.5m tube subscriber base…. so slowly, slowly… the game plan of globalist control tool of choice CBDCs the reality of which…the message is getting out.
I also suspect places like Denmark will see a steady increase in libertarian leaning immigrants, you know the kinda folks who liked the world Old Normal….
And those not choosing to live under a draconian state of techno-bio-security-digio-apartheid – compliant vaxxd v unvaxxd untermensch…
Strong language, but spot on:

George never disappoints!
Get Fu…. Wait, can we swear yet?
This isn’t Twitter, ma’am.
It’s always 6pm somewhere.
I’ll say it for you: get fucked, Vallance.
The first sacrifice is to get rid of the “science” chef.
Butterfly.
(was looking at the ‘Vikings’ version BTW.)
And the ‘Chief Medical Officer’.
Just as a sausage factory burns down in Essex following a spate of meat processing plants burning in the US and the BBC tells you you will eat insects and be happy. I fear we will see many more such burnings Sir Patrick – please tell me I am wrong.
Yes there does seem to be an inordinately high number of food processing factories going up in smoke – it must be deliberate!!
If they’re not deliberate sabotage, then it stretches coincidence to beyond belief.
Of course it’s deliberate. It’s MI6 and the CIA at work as usual.
“Residents are urged to avoid the area and people in Harlow Town have been advised to keep doors and windows shut.”
What if you’ve cut the bottoms of your doors off so that The Virus can’t get you? (although it’s unclear how this actually works).
Perhaps if Patrick Vallance eats meat at home his home could be considered to be a place where meat is processed in Vallance’s gut.
Would be a terrible shame if his multimillion pound pad went up in smoke, eh?
Food processing plants are being hit by aircraft and mysteriously burning down all over the US – Vegan Green Terrorists at work supported by the State?
We are under siege! Where are the Police?
Why doesn’t he **** off and mind his own business?
Because he is a perfect human being and as such he has every right to tell you how to live your life and like all such perfect humans he will stop at nothing to ensure you are created in his image, he is God like in his own head. That’s why he is saving us from ourselves.
Because he signed up to pathological lying in public for money and he crossed the rubicon in 2020.
Just Brits?
No, these see you next Tuesdays want everyone cycling to their ‘job’ in a state approved outfit The Chairman had that bit right.
What could possibly go wrong?
That grifting charlatan can “expect” all he likes, I will not eats the bugs.
That’s just what I wanted to hear and although I might not be flying again soon I fully intend to take not a blind bit of notice of this a#shole.
After the last two years government advice can F right O.
Will we also own nothing and be happy? the directives are straight out of that nasty little group of terorists the WEF and Davos forum. So Valance has his feet in both big Pharma and in the WEF camps, the money and power must be heady. When will this man join the rest on trial.
You’ll like it. It’s just like Communism, only different, this time we’ll do it properly.
âItâs important that the messaging [on climate change] isnât designed to cause fear or upset, it should be about making sure people understand what the situation is,â
I think we ‘understand what the situation is’ … Astronomical fuel bills, switch my heating and vehicle all electric, (again, at astronomical cost), no flying, no meat, no, no, no …
Oh, and don’t throw your vote directly down the nearest grid. It’s recyclable.
Could Sir Patrick – or anyone else – tell me what the nature of the climate crisis is when satellite temperature, sea level and weather show no worsening trend in response to C02, and when atmospheric CO2 concentrations show a better correlation with global population than almost anything else.
I hate this arrogant ponce. Telling us all how to live, who the hell does he think he is?
Behavioural change? I’ll tell him where that’s needed – in our GP surgeries where the doctors are still pretending to be too busy to see patients face to face, even though the Covid scam has run its course. Nice work if you can get it, eh?
Seems to me that there are big changes going on in our society, seemingly whether we like it or not. Vallance, Witless et al couldn’t be happier about it apparently.
Sooner or later there needs to be street action.
“We should not aim to frighten people because thatâs not helpful” says the bastard who lied to the entire nation every single day for two years scaring the wits out of most of them! I wonder what his ÂŁ600,000 of shares are worth today?
Well Mr Vallance. When I want your advice I’ll ask for it until then ………..
STFU!
Is that sufficient to finish the sentence Bella?
(I hope you don’t mind).

Bologna in Italy is trialling a social credit score from September. It’s based around the “virtuous citizen”….
That’s where it’s going.
Was that the “smart Wallet” or something
What a fucking miserable twat of a cunt he is.
Eloquently put!đ
Perfectly correct.
Of course Vallance won’t practice what he preaches because that is for the great unwashed. Why cant he just sod off.
Vallance ought to put some substance to his statements. Eg, what precisely means I fly less than I used to. I’ve chosen to cut the number of international conferences on dolliwhop and hupadoodledo I attend by 2?
I haven’t owned a car since the mid-1990 which means I’ve been doing all my everyday travel on foot since then. Sometimes, I go somewhere by train, at most once per month, usually, but not really every month. In the last 11 years, I’ve travelled to Germany by plane 4 times. I guess this puts me climate-wise so much ahead of what Vallance is doing that I needn’t worry about behaviour change for the rest of my life.
Heating a rural house for a year (with oil) can easily use as much as a return flight from London to Vancouver or Seattle. That’s a long flight (I went to Vancouver in 1993 … we got quite a spectacular view of Hudson Bay.)
Does Vallance live in a large rural house, heated by oil? (A lot of well-off people do.)
He’s probably one of the people who flies 5-10 times a year and thinks that everybody has a similar lifestyle to the upper-upper-middle class. No they don’t. It’s multi-millionaires with 100,000s of pharma shares who perhaps need to reduce their flying by 90, 95% or more. A ‘C2, D or E’ family taking one holiday per year in a warmer part of Europe seems a fairly trivial part of the problem. I don’t like to see the poor told how to behave by the rich.
In the spirit of all things eco, I am going to recycle another commenter’s excellent post from another article and say
Nope. You can f*ck right off you criminal cnut.
Just go away. Roll a big fat one and chill mate. Raid the fridge, get the munchies. Just fuck off.
The last time we were told not to eat something, it was eggs.
Didn’t work out to well for mad Edwina then either.
Make private jets illegal
Please lie down on the couch, tell me, have you tried to save the people living on this planet that you say now also needs saving?
Slightly ot but i had one of those delightful moments yesterday. Came across a few cyclists blocking my way and had to accelerate round them when they finally decided to get into singleish file. As i checked my mirror i could see several riders covering their mouths with their arms as they appeared out of the suspended contents of my obviously clogged catalytic converter, dpf and exhaust pipes. oooppps.
I opened my car door on a cyclist once, made me chuckle just a bit.
It’s not unarguable. It’s entirely arguable.
as someone on another site said, to put it into perspective, 100 years ago, out of 10,000 molecules making up the atmosphere, 3 were carbon dioxide. That’s increased to 4 molecules in 10,000. And that 1 molecule in 10,000 has made global temperatures increase to dangerous levels.
A bit more perspective. If mankind’s emissions are responsible for a warming planet then, by the arithmetical values of climate alarmists (not mine), it would take us 25,000 years at current rates of emission to raise the temperature of the planet by 2ÂșC.
What dangerous CO2 and temperature increase??
Were I able to design a Planet with that kind of ‘profile’ then I would want the ‘Award’,
