Mr Hawkes. this appears as a facile post trolling me to be annoying; although, from your previous comments on the matter, I suppose it's possible that you don't understand the difference between weather and climate? (Mr Google can help with that.) Is there really any reason I should want to comment on whether you're upset or not by the heat - surely that's your concern not mine? Anyway, you're more likely to get a response if you exhibit the manners most of us were taught as children; the magic word "please", rather than just asking me to remind you when I've obviously wasted time posting detailed links from authorative sources previously. I won't bother reposting them, if you want you can search for them on the forum. The real issue in the UK at present isn't necessarily the heat (I quite appreciated it a few weeks ago myself when I was on a canal boat with some mates from my uni days) but the current lack of rain. Still, I suppose you're prepared for the hosepipe ban that Thames Water inevitably will introduce soon (just announced)? (Interesting when the long term trend towards weather extremes seems to be more rain!) Anyway, before his retirement, one of my uni friends was a director of some overseas subsidiaries of a large oil company, but now he understands the reality of the climate crisis issues he's accepted a non exec Chair of a solar energy company. I've a lot more confidence in his knowledge of the science, business and economic aspects of climate change than the views of some random skeptics on this forum. Looking at your recent exchange with Mr Brigo there also seems to be a repeat of discussions that took place a while ago about personal mitigating actions. Hence, I don't see any reason to discuss this further with you as it's obviously a waste of my time! But if you want some advice, going vegan (or, second best, veggie but at least flexitarian), would, as indicated by some research, make a significant difference in reducing greenhouse emissions - and might be good for your health too :-) https://www.bbc.co.uk/future/article/20220429-the-climate-benefits-of-veganism-and-vegetarianism https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/articles/vegan_vs_flexitarian |
