Prog house has played its part too.

The amount of forests burned to see Guy J play to enthusiastic South Americans must be off the chart.

The four countries Alok Sharma should target and lobby in his push for net zero are China, the US, Russia and India. Will he fuck though. Others countries will understandably be reluctant to impose more cost and disruption on their economies all the time they get rich by burning and exporting more coal.

alistair Ed, perhaps you could you donate your services to wind generation?

Methane is a massive part of the problem though

    PDJ China and the Soviet Union

    They’re as capatalist as any other country. I’m not sure we have any genuinely socialist countries. But point taken, they are all as bad as each other. I think the point she is trying to make is that we should put people before profits.

      IPCC report typically grim.

      Strikes me everyone needs clear info on what they can do to help.

      It’s how I feel right now. I get the message, I want to help, what can I do?

        Mad_Cyril recycle, recycle, recycle. Bags for life. And for Christ’s sake get a smart meter!

        Let’s ALL keep this planet safe for the next generation.

            All these middle class micro acts (“ooh, let’s all wash our clothes on a slightly lower heat while developing countries are building a fucking ton of new coal stations”) are fucking pointless at this stage.

            Not to denigrate anyone’s conscientious efforts and care towards the world, but it’s true.

            If things go seriously tits up, geo-hacking will be the only way out.

              Mad_Cyril Don’t have any kids, or don’t have any more kids, consume less of everything, don’t ever get on a plane to anywhere, vote green, eat organic, grow the grass in your garden (mow it once a year, your need a strimmer or a sythe), plant a native tree in your garden (oaks are boss for wildlife and look great), wear your clothes till they fall off your back, get solar panels for your house (issues), use sunscreen.

                  That’s exactly the point Dave, good work

                    Millsy what’s Geo hacking? Sounds boss.

                    A real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game using GPS-enabled devices. Participants navigate to a specific set of GPS coordinates and then attempt to find the container hidden at that location.

                      Wasily Just been watching stuff on the news about fires/floods over the place and was thinking exactly the same thing.

                        Dubman My tin foiled hat friends have been saying this for years

                        Not sure why it’s tin-foil hat.

                        Populations are growing, and our whole economic system induces people to just consume more shit. It will never be effectively reigned in, so what’s the solution?

                        Hack the environment in various ways (even down to throwing up sunshades) may eventually be the last-ditch option.

                            I meant to say that they’ve been doing it for years already.
