Climate Change (Global Warming) 🥶🌍🌞

In regards to the U.K.'s piffling 1% of the worlds emissions, they could probably have achieved better results simply by letting commercial ventures still use diesels but ban diesel in cars and make them all self charging hybrids.

Given we are told it's in cities that emissions are worst, then the ability to go electric in towns and petrol out of it would have solved the infrastructure issue, kids in the DRC digging for cobalt, and range anxiety.
...and with what do you propose replacing my diesel Discovery? It is my family car and farm workhorse it tows great weights and travels long distances.
 
Depends, is it using red diesel :D

If domestic diesel cars are removed, then that would have reduced our carbon footprint even more, negating ed millibands 22 billion for carbon capture which would allow the farming inheritance proposal from labour, to be scrapped.

Oh they don’t like people getting self charging hybrids…you don’t have to pay for thdd err electric. That’s why the tax breaks are much lower than plug-ins.

First it was acid rain that was going to dissolve the earth if Britain didn't stop burning coal (no one else, of course, just us. Our coal's uniquely bad apparently). That didn't really happen so it shifted to "The Hole in the Ozone Layer". Then some inconsiderate bastard took a satelite picture that showed there wasn't one so we needed some other made-up problem to worry about. Enter Rising Sea Levels. Same tosser with his satelite showed they weren't rising so Global Warming was invented. Unfortuantely records showed the earth had cooled slightly since the industrial revolution, so that was binned and now we have "Climate Change". The word climate comes from the ancient Greek "Klima" which refers to an imagined slope of an earth which the Greeks believed to be otherwise flat, with a slight decline away from the centre (the equator) to the north and south (the poles) which accounted for the different climatic zones and the changing seasons as the sun (so the Greeks believed) orbited around the earth, rather than the other way round. Therefore by definition "climate" is a shifting concept that implies something that is never static. Worrying about climate change is like fretting over water being wet.

When the angst-ridden conversation shifts to human over-population I'll start listening.

The Parasitic Elite don't like talk of over-population.

For the Parasitic Elite, over-population is all upside and no downside.

Your regular reminder to never allow folk who do not share the negative consequences of policies to determine policy.
 

An Early Warning System​

The British government has announced an ambitious £81 million initiative to create an advanced "early warning system" for climate-related tipping points.

The project will focus on two critical areas: the subpolar gyre (SPG) in the Atlantic Ocean and the Greenland ice sheet.

Some assclown in the Met Office has been watching The Day After Tomorrow on repeat since 2000-fucking-4.

Where does your information come from? The Pub... The Daily Mail or some conspiracy websites?

The ozone layer isn't repaired, but it is getting there.
The banning of certain industrial chemicals (since the 80's) and wide spread use of certain gases in propellants / air conditioning has considerably reduced the impact man was having on the hole.

This is all Titanic deckchair rearranging. We're talking symptoms not causes. The cause of all envirnmental degradation, whether climatic or biospheric, is human over-population which is being fed by an unsustainable global socio economic model that assumes unending expansion of the human footprint and the ever-increasing exploitation and consumption of all natural resources. Until that is accepted the circle cannot be squared.

This is all very interesting but beside the point.

The terrible effects of over-population can most readily be seen in how my Sunday Morning Hooning Route has changed over the past thirty years. A ninety mile circle through the countryside was initially, easily doable in ninety minutes, even on a moderately powered machine, despite the need to observe safety requirements in the several thirty mph limit zones along the route.

These days, with the amount of traffic on the road, two hours is ambitious.

I could also reference the astonishing number of cash-cameras that have sprung up in that time but these needn't be a bar to proceedings as long as you remove or obscure your registration plate.

Let's all concentrate on what is important here without getting lost in the minutiae.

Given the optics you've put over this I have to agree.... we need to get the population down to 1830's level... perhaps with a revised legal selection position on voting to the same era.
