China has an emissions 'free pass' until 2030 because they are, quote "an emerging nation"
They've put a lander on the Moon and Mars, they've got a Space Station ffs.
Emerging Nation my arse.

China puts out more emissions in 16days than Australia does in a year...then there's India the US, Russia etc, etc,

Who's given them a 'free pass' mate? Does this mean we just give up and join them, or stop importing their goods?

As the IPCC have just admitted, their biogenic methane metrics were well wrong (longevity and ignoring the natural carbon cycle) so a lot of work needs to go in to correct these stat's too.

Do you ever read r/collapse orchard?

It's reddit, so signal to noise is in the bin, but some well informed, very fatalistic posters comment there - big thread atm on the IPCC report.

No mate. Sounds a bit zombie and BoB, but I'll check it out thanks.

I think with the methane thing, our government and multinationals have seized the opportunity provided by the earlier metrics and clung on to them as an easy 'out'. Exchange meat for protein that hasn't got carbon metrics, and other consumption and behaviour can stay the same. Well, that's been torpedoed by the authority that established the possibility, and there's been a lot of people in the media the last couple of weeks who are either in denial or oblivious to this.

Yeah it's a magnet for the survivalist loons - we've got ten years left bro, gonna learn how to grow parsnips.
But some good stuff in amongst it.

The IPCC thread is here:

Allotment land could provide a solution to England's housing crisis​

Research has suggested that utilising allotment sites in the UK could help the government provide up to 600,000 more new-build homes.

good old estate agents, reminding everyone how fundamentally useless they are in human society
Haha, wonder who commissioned it? Make industry pay to clean their brownfield FFS.
It's a great idea when fresh food is in short supply.
 
Anything to do with that judge's verdict the other week that said it's okay as long as it's a reasonable and genuine cause?

Possibly. I don't know a whole lot about it but I just remember there was a lot of backlash to the law as it was deemed to be very heavy handed on protestors.
