Storms, floods, droughts, fires all increasing. But nothing to worry about eh?

Keep your head in the sand mate

Find a report from a qualified scientist who categorically says we will be wiped out.
It's all scaremongering and only from non qualified persons.
All you say above have been happening prior to this 'climate emergency' and we are still here.
Did you read the last bit about natural disasters and the casualties?

Just a quick note.
Irrelevant of who or what is correct or not there are no scientists who categorically say that a change in climate will wipe us out.
That's for XR Greta and AOC.
I really dont see the problem.
The planet itself will make the call when it seems it needs to
Do you know in 1937 3 million deaths occurred from natural disasters.
In 2018 it was 11k
Does that show that we are destroying this planet.

Just a little note. Every time you start a new sentence it doesn’t have to start on a new line you know. Your posts are very hard to read and decipher when written like that. Irrelevant of their ostrich content.

I fully agree.

What we are witnessing are people, who for varying reasons, are going along with worst case scenarios presented as most likely.

Europe is not driving climate change and it won't be in the future either.

However, it's where you find most of the virtue signallers....that's for sure.

I am not a Climate Change denier however scientists rely on funding to do their research. I expect that there is plenty of money from governments and NGO's for research into climate change (virtue signaling to the voters).

It's rather like the Race Relations Industry the people who rely on that funding to earn a living are bound to find evidence that the problem is getting worse and needs more.... funding.

I am all in favour of of reducing our dependency on oil and gas as I do not want this country to be in hock to the dodgy regimes that supply us. If that helps improve air pollution and carbon emissions fine by me.

I draw a line when scientists start saying we should wear a hair shirt whilst other countries carry on regardless (Our economy should not suffer to make Greta feel good).

As for the Greens they oppose Heathrow expansion because air travel is very polluting and then they oppose high speeds rail travel which is the practical alternative to flying, I pay no attention to these people who are against everything and for nothing.

 


One more point

Excellent points sir.

Moving towards a future without fossil fuels is just commonsense.....However, what is being pushed isn't only crazy it's fantasy land. Yet it holds prominence in the media and has huge financial backing and lobbying.....whee does all that funding come from I wonder?

No, it shows that you have picked a year in history that had a high number of deaths.

I looked up national disasters in 1937 and found a typhoon which kiled 11,000 people and not much else. Where did you get your figures from?

So you've found an example of the threat being exaggerated. This doesn't mean you can ignore all the science and facts that show we are in a climate emergency.

98% of scientists believe cimate change is real and caused by human actions. I would choose to believe them rather than the uninformed deniers on here.

1. I've been hearing this for well over 40yrs yet globalisation on a scale never seen before was 'allowed' to happen. Why?

2. I've always understood it as us humans being part of many climate issues, not the sole contributor?

All the major banks are gearing up for financing this as it just amounts to a huge tax grab on the western world (which is why it's being pushed).

Just look at the cost of replacing every gas boiler in the UK and the associated revenue. Then the huge cost of providing inefficient "clean" power. Then the cost of replacing all cars with electric, making every house heat efficient etc. It's endless and even all this would only shave part of a percentage off global emissions (ignoring the emissions relating to manufacture and shipping etc).

After all this ask yourself if you think Greta and Extinction Rebellion really are a grass roots movement and who is really pushing all this. At best they are useful idiots for the globalists.

Greta started protesting on her own outside the Swedish Parliament 2 years ago. She's virtually the definition of a grass roots movement.

The only viable option we currently have is nuclear power.

Ultimately though the problem is population growth in the 3rd world although nobody wants to address that.
