People use terms like Net Zero confidrently, but do they realy know what they mean. Such terms are shorthand for complex ideas that most people do not research.

This query took Deep Research a lot longer than a lot of other questions. Maybe it's not all that simple? Is it possible that those promoting this scheme are counting on people following along without knowing where they're going?

I asked Perplexity about it and I was surprised to find that the **** is piled much deeper than I thought it was. The climate bullies have gotten to my favorite robot too.

There was no next day delivery.
There was no bundle this with that.
There was no internet. Skip the Dishes didn’t exist.
Fast food was not the norm. It was easier to eat healthy. There were home phones. There was VH.........
