Climate Change

Yeh or general positives? I saw stories of wildlife flourishing etc but not so many recently
The numbers I read when everything was shut down, planes, trains and automobiles, was about an 8% drop off. This is roughly the drop we'll need to achieve year on year to hit the Paris targets. But that drop has all but disappeared now and we're close to where we were before the pandemic. What that does show is the upper limit to which individual choice can actually affect things and it is not enough. Every climate wonk and activist ultimately comes to the conclusion that this 8% figure underlines - people power driving policy change is the only way to affect things on the scale we need.

Thats interesting, cheers for that. Its all scary
 
I don't think Extinction Rebellion made a good move today, no need for it and what were they thinking stepping on other wreaths to get theirs at the front. It seems they're doing more and more silly things and will lose support over time.

Absolute cuns with zero respect I hope they got a good shoeing

I wonder how much carbon a burning, disrespectful, self-obsessed extinction rebellion clam would release into the atmosphere?

I'll be sure to drive to work at 8000rpm tomorrow in honour of those pricks.

One could almost begin to believe they care more about getting noticed than convincing people help the cause.
