    Ironically, I've probably contributed less than most to global warming having never flown, not owned a car, being vegetarian since mid-20s, not having the heating on unless absolutely necessary and being the type who doesn't leave things switched on or on standby.

    I think it would be an idea to drop the standing charge or offer some reward to people who use less than a certain amount of gas/electric per month and increase the amount charged per unit each time you go above various thresholds. It's an assumption, but I suspect a lot of people are very wasteful. I see neighbours with their windows wide open in winter when they must have the heating on, for example.

There is no way on this earth that the rise in temperature produced by CO2 /humans can compete with the effects of the forces of natural climate change. It suits the scientists as it enable them to con politicians (covid anyone?). It suits the politicians who feed on calamity. It suits the media the same way; and lazy commentators who won't look back far enough in case it stops a good story.
    Just saying, like ...
    If it is about using climate change as another excuse for introducing control and compliance, it's no wonder the Chinese aren't interested, they already have that.

    It's really not beyond the boundaries of possibility to suggest that we could make things worse by trying to intervene.
    I agree with this. People talk about 'saving the environment' without even having the faintest idea of what 'the environment' is. It sounds so easy, but it isn't. As you say, it's not a simple machine or process where you can just alter a few variables and solve everything. It's unimaginably complex and dynamic. It seems to be way beyond our current capabilities to effectively model or understand such a complex system, so how do we go about 'fixing' it?

    Besides, if we really are the driving force behind rising temperatures, I'd imagine there's a serious lag between action and outcome. Things will continue to get worse for perhaps decades, even if we changed everything for the better now, whatever that would mean.

    You might as well read a book about climate change by Craig David…

    Patronising as ever BFP.
    I am far more concerned about the WEF than the climate, look up Klaus Scwab, there is a wannabe Bond villain if ever I saw one. Ignore at your peril.

    What a preposterous idea ! Nobody would remotely want to shave or brush their hair in the space! As I pointed out strapping rocket boosters to planet Earth is the solution...just waiting for the IWO to confirm it..!

    An astronaut might. We could arrange a load of solar panels round the outside of the mirrors as well, free energy! In my experience, strap-ons tend to provide a less than satisfactory solution, so that's a no-go.

    Thank you, and your post about the WEF, it is spot on, in fact anyone voting in the next election should make sure your candidate has no affiliation to any second party.
