Reducing the GHG emissions of <sector> to zero/near-zero/net-zero is not "hysteria". It is the mathematically simplest possible form of understanding the published climate science.

Whats "hysteria" is trying to turn that into a political/social-beliefs debate about "prosperity" or "hating the rich" instead of a simple numbers analysis.

I didn't say that was hysteria, so why are you pretending I did?

The actual purpose of the Guardian piece is to give its readers more reasons to hate the rich.
