Now you've got it.. it's a massive circle of oil, carbon and taxes.. they tax the oil and then tax the carbon the oil produces then use the carbon tax to pay people to put up wind turbines then tax that pay and the electricity produced by the turbines gets taxed...
Aha, so tax is causing climate change! If only someone had picked up on this earlier the growing chaos might have been avoided.

So all those billionaires, non-doms, Monaco living, Swiss account holding, international conglomerate types, actually had our best interests at heart avoiding paying tax here.



If someone can find the 2019 channel 4 interview (I think) of saint jacobs excuse making over tax evasion being not the same as tax avoidance, that'd be great.
 
The current changes are due to coming out of the Ice age, taxing natural changes and masquerading them as man made.
The Earth does go through natural cycles, mate, and I agree with you there. However, these cycles follow stable, predictable patterns over known timeframes. What we're seeing now is different. This rapid warming is primarily driven by human activities, especially the release of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels. It’s not a matter of debate; the data is clear. This shift from natural predictability is happening far faster than the gradual warming at the end of an ice age

You have a demonstrated track record of ignorance on this issue. Nothing more. I’m glad you watched a “revealing and conspiratorial” YouTube video instead of being a productive citizen last night, but maybe just go be an @ss in the Moyes thread instead.
 
Climate change deniers are the worst. Ignorant selfish blowhards.

Governments and big business are well aware of the science, it is just not in their short term interests to act upon it and they’ll be long gone once reality truly hits. Useful idiots are all happy to feed off and broadcast the lies.
It is disappointing that the data is readily available for anyone serious about understanding the issue but some insist on ignoring it or not looking beyond the school of social media. It should almost be common sense to get that the transition out of an ice age typically happens over thousands of years, with global temperatures rising by about 4-7°C over 5,000 to 15,000 years. This current disaster of manmade warming has seen a 1.2°C rise in just about 150 years, since industrialisation. This rate is at least 10 times faster than natural post-ice-age warming.

It might be worth noting that the Earth is a spherical astronomical body (not flat) that orbits the Sun. To the earlier point, just as Earth's orbit follows predictable laws of physics, so do its climate cycles within this, allowing us to clearly understand how human activity is disrupting them.
 
The evidence is clear for everyone to see. Even over the last 30 odd years I've been alive on this island. We have regular storms now, 50mph winds even inland and at sea level. This was never a thing growing up. Roads are constantly flooded. There's just so much energy in the oceans now. So much wet weather getting dumped on us. 40c just a few years back.

it is obviously complex but you can reduce it to simple science, the main source of energy is the sun, the greeenhouse effect dictates how much energy is retainied within our ecosystem feom the sun, human activity greatly increases greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and therefore influences an increase of energy from the sun within our ecosystem, energy cannot be destroyed only converted.
