    I did think the ‘close to tears’ “the country I love” style delivery was a bit over the top though.

    Moved my stomach more than my heart. Though that just turned out to be wind.

  2. thing is, the poor lass has been criticised for not showing much/any emotion in her delivery - more than likely due to it being in a second language, Asperger's and world stage anxiety combo - and when she does project some emotion she's equally criticised.

    I'd love to see her critics deliver such speeches in a second language under the microscope of the worlds media.

    most of you should sell your vans, just think of the gross pollution they create, how can you sleep at night.. then of course there is the VOCs from all the body filler and fresh 2k paint add those frequent oil changes and you might as well self flagellate .. Scrap em dont restore them.. As for Greta or whatever her name is she would be better opening her ears and taking time to listen to and research proper climate science and stop regurgitating the same old garbage and doom mongering. She thinks shes a martyr but the reality is she is simply being exploited .. much like the rest of the population who are arrogant enough to think they can save the planet .. The reality is they are campaigning for something they dont even understand . Lets just control the universe .. err no .. OK just start with the sun.. and the oceans .. nothing there we can control .. The fact is the climate is fine it does s what it does .. We can control the population, but nobody seems interested in that, more folk more food more energy less forestation, more demands or natural resources .. The climate is a distraction so the planet can be raped and pillaged .. The irony with these climate monkeys is they fail to recognise they are part of the problem but they are so far up there own butts they cant see the wood for the trees.. Yeh there climate savvy ( not) and disregard the raping of the planets resources for there upgraded mobile, and battery operated everything.. Lets rip up the salt flats so we can extract the lithium .. then what ? We will be OK though as the power plants producing energy from "sustainable" fuel will save us all, "sustainable" being wood FFS there are train loads of trees being shipped to the latest sustainable energy producing power plant and thats just one ..

    I baulked when I saw that that environmentalist sailed some ocean or other in an electric powered boat or some other headline seeking ***** .. Yeh what they failed to say was that the crew were flown over to sail the boat back ... needless to say the boat wasn't made of papeomache , so there must have been a shed load of chemical components that disipated into the atmosphere so they could go on the jolly... I would respect her more if she just sat at home and sent postcards to folk made from recycled paper .. That reads correctly by the way... some of these folk are so shallow they might as well be made of flour water and ripped up Thomas cook brochures :)

    Folk bang on about CO2 .. we need it to live .. plants need it to grow and with an ever increasing world population god knows we need to grow more food ... or maybe not, give the amount thats wasted every day .. Food that grown in Polly tunnels saturated in guess what .. YUP CO2 .. Seriously folks were on the road to destruction but its not the climate we need to worry about ..

    Im definitely not an environmentalist but I am concerned regarding plastic. and the recycling system.. Thats another thing people should look into before banging on about the invisible atmosphere.. Take care of the planet first and foremost and in so doin the other stuff will sort itself out .. curtail your greed , and inappropriate needs, and things at grass roots level will improve ..

    If you think separating your rubbish is being environmentally friendly think again.. Only 3% of all that stuff in your recycle bin is recycled .. try not buying it in the first place .. less is more. keep your old car, wear a jersey, get rid of your mobile phone, grow your own veg and adopt a chicken.. much more worth while and environmentally savvy than sailing around the world for self promotion... I wouldn't think for one second there is a money making agenda behind it all :rolleyes:..

    Dont be fooled be educated .. :) thanks for the rant :)

    Yup, it will. We’ll get wiped out, and the planet behind us will warm up and be able to sustain life like the one in front of us did before it got too hot. Just my theory, anyway...
     
  6. Surely all we need to do is breed more sponges?

    Maybe just train the carp to tow us around on boats. In fact, iv cracked it again... let's take our poptops of, turn them upside down, then attach 50 carp to the front. Dangle one bazzas boilies in front of them and off you go! Us boy racers with Subaru engines could attach 150 carp, so we could retain our smug grin as we over take. :thumbsup:

    One thing wrong with that.

    These kids would probably ask why they’re being asked to kill fellow human beings. :thumbsup:
