Get a bit fed up of hearing this to be honest, not because I don't care, more that I just don't see anyone that does really seem to care or do anything about it, also does it really exist?
They have been banging on about it for years now, 40/50 years
Watching Minder, arthur gets phone call from someone, complaining about alarm he sold being faulty, or maybe a of been Intercom system, something like that anyway his Answer was it's this Global Warming
First thing, there have been many changes over millions of years, we had Ice Age and things warmed up, did they say it's Global Warming, We have 2 Weeks of Hot Weather in Summer and there all saying get used to this if we don't do anything to stop Climate Change, Italy have Record Temp for a day and it's hottest since 1977, and they had a hot spell back then and another now, what about it
We have floods, which I have to say is upsetting to see, specially people that have suffered it many times, feel for them, but I can remember floods when I was a kid, there are a few areas near me that always floor, road does often but it's been no worse in last 20 years than I remember as a kid. near where one road always floods under bridge, I can remember half the park flooded, we went paddling in it, probably upto are knees, that was the whole field, still can picture the guy with his dingy rowing on it
I've never seen it flood since that week in 1980s
Who is going to do anything to really change things, is everyone going to stop going jetting all over the world going on holiday, stop going out for non essential trips in car, the roads the last few weekends around Birmingnam have been the worst I've ever known in last 10 years, just total nightmare the whole weekend
Are they going to stop wasting electricity, the try and make all consumers feel bad about leaving TV in Standby which uses very little power. while Shops, banks etc Have AirCon, Heating, Lighting, TV's, Computers, Printers, you name it left on all weekend 24/7 all year wasting Electricity on massive scale
Electric cars might change peoples health but they won't help planet with all the batteries that will be used and electricity to charge them
USA have had Catalytic Converters on Cars since the 1970's so why did we wait here till the 90's
Then you have City Centre Charging, So Birmingham claim they are charging people to go in the city centre to help enviroment and peoples health, great
So why then if you put in Reg of a Honda Insight Mk1 2000 year, one of the cleanest Petrol Engine cars probably still on the road and one of best on mpg, 1Litre Engine, lean burn with Electric Assist, it's under lowest Tax band there is for emissions and Free Tax as result, Birmingham are going to charge you for driving it in there "Clean Air Zone", but you can drive a Ford Cmax, Fiesta, Focus 1.6 from 2010 which throws out more emissions, just because it's newer?????
What a joke, so it's not about clean air, it's about getting older cars off road regardless of wether it's better or not
To me the whole thing doesn't make sense
