Dame Emma Thompson joins London protest

The rises in temperature they quote just dont add up, like today for example was the hottest April 21st in Bangor in 95 years?
so 95 years ago when there weren't commercial planes, hardly anyone had a vehicle, no central heating etc etc yet it was almost as hot as now? Almost all of these heat records are from times before anyone had a carbon foot print

  Yeah, I know, I say the same thing.That's why I said in my earlier post, whether or not it's real or not or maybe more accurately man made or not is kind of irrelevant. The world is undeniably going through a warming cycle at the moment but whether it's due to our co2 emissions is still up for debate, there's no doubt that Global warming is a massive money spinner for a large number of people though. But as I also said it's a distraction for all sorts of undeniably genuine global issues.

Well in Scotland we have just had the warmest Easter ever.  Beating the previous record set in just a few years ago in 2015.  Both Northern Ireland and Wales have set new records. 



It’s also the frequency of events, not just records, but general weather events.  Both frequencies have increased significantly in the last couple of decades and appear to be continuing to do so.


The Greenhouse effect theory first emerged in 1896.  It has since been proven beyond reasonable doubt that if you significantly increase the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere then global temperatures will rise.  The vast vast majority of scientists are in agreement on this.  Yes it is man made and no it is not open for debate.


You have to sperate weather patterns from global warming.  This time last year I was out in the Scottish hills carrying and using my axe and crampons.  This year they are already back up in the loft.  But that does not mean that the earth has got 10 degrees warmer in the space of a year.


I find it puzzling that people are not bothered, or in denial.  For me, well I don’t have any children and I’m getting on the old side – so hey ho – good luck with the global warming folks – I should be gone by the time the real fun starts.  But this is the next generation we are talking about now.  Don’t people care about their children? 



And by the way I think it’s great that the new protest group challenging global warming have chosen to use the word extinction.  I am thoroughly fed up with idiots talking about saving the planet.  The planet will be better off without us to be honest and will slowly repair any damage we have inflicted on it.  Combating Global warming is about saving our own asses.

I'm all for allowing the return of 2 stroke motorcycles. Rang-a-dang-dang!


:crazy

Me too. I really miss them. They were an absolute blast.


I'd laugh if The Kettle Club or the LC/H1 owners had a ride through London this weekend :lol . Pre 1979 are ULEZ exempt too.


Waaaaahhh!....waaaaahhh!...waaaaaaaaaahhh! :lol

Just saw that these idiot protesters have now decided to ruin everyone's day by laying down and covering the whole floor inside the main entrance of the London History Museum.  :rolleyes

How about this one then. The Gaia Theory I think it was called. The planet is simply re-acting to events upon it by trying to remove the infestation which is causing the events. Much like the human body reacting to an infection. The universe is a wonderful place and we know jack shit, cant even see 75% of it.

Well, I've been out two days on the trot burning fossil fuels completely unnecessarily, riding my bike just for the sheer fun of it  :eek  :nana

I don't get why people get themselves upset about Trump and Trumps presidency

Me either, having spent a month over in the states last November I can tell you that the place is run so much better than this shit hole. Streets were clean, plenty of police, little to no anti social behaviour in the evenings, more jobs than you could shake a stick at.

He may be an orange racist bigot moron but the guy has got that country up on its feet.
Goes to show what can be achieved if you actually stop pandering to the PC brigade and put your own people first

Think some Americans should come live here for a while and see what a real shit show of a government looks like

[fazersharp]

He may be orange

Now your being racist  :lol I think you will find that he is of citrus heritage - is the phrase.
