The time has come to stop talking about it, and doing things.
We need to introduce alternates for energy supply ASAP.
A combo of nuclear power, wind, solar and tidal turbines need to be introduced. Now.
ALL oil and gas powered systems have to be taken out action NOW. And I do mean NOW.
A method for scrubbing the atmosphere has to be introduced. Now.
There are literally NO ALTERNATIVES. Anything else - like the bullshit discussions happening on this board - really need to stop. They only serve to put a sheet anchor on the way forward.
That's not the problem, as well you know.
The increase in population means that more resources will be consumed... more pollutants released, more global warming, more crop failures, floods...
> In fact, I think we're already starting to witness this phenomenon, as many, many people believe global warming is a complete hoax.
Right.
So nothing to do with goons like you spreading your bullshit even since the GW warnings started happening?
> When the experts have been consistently wrong with these constant doomsday predictions for 45 years, is it any wonder that people start to become skeptical of ALL climate and environmental sciences? That's not a good thing.
Yeah, Concern Troll for Science Nr 1, whose main aim is "nothing to see here, move on." So, we do nothing about climate change.
Right.
We already have our first resource war of the anthropocene in Syria. European crops failed last year.
To get back to where we were 40 years ago in terms of emissions pollutants, we have to *reverse* emissions output. We have to stop putting out all emissions and find a way of scrubbing the atmosphere.
You're not helping.
That's those well-known green activists at the Economist.
As there are no working EPRs out there, I don't want to pay EDF's dev costs. I like to technology like work first before I buy it. Kind of like a car:) Give the wheels a good kicking.
Given the uptick on global warming and the fact we're running out of time if we want to move to a zero-fossil fuels economy, I'd prefer a plutonium-recycling CANDU if at all. It works. It's there.
As the economist says, all available research and capital should be targeted at any non-fossil fuels. We should outlaw all fossil-fuel driven devices, as of yesterday.

People have been on TV saying that they voted because of racism. Racist attacks have increased since the Referendum. Arsehole.
