Temperatures on the rise in the UK?

Pretty certain 1976 was hottest summer on Aberdeen record. I want heat. Give me heat. 

Anyways, piss taking aside, I'm also not claiming it isn't happening. My annoyance is muppets who jump on board with it that have no clue what they are fighting about.

I also never ever see answers to what they want done.

1. Hence why I have said for the 3rd time now 'aye... but icebergs melting'.

Its just stupid.

Climate change... as most people fly in on their private jets. Picked up in their private Merc cars, moaning about 'damn plastics' as they drink from their plastic bottles of water in their Canada Goose jacket types. Far fetched. 

It's just feeble arguments put across by bandwagon jumpers and social media jerks that seem to be part of my generation. It's the new in thing right now, but what are you going to do, what's your suggestion I sais? 

Oh well... that's not my duty, but erm... yeah climate change. It's just fucking feeble.

Just to be clear, my pet hate is climate change idiots, not climate change itself. I'm well aware there is plenty evidence, 2. but there is also evidence to suggest certain things are no different, Infact probably worse years ago that the climate change idiots argue about.

1. That's the biggest indicator 'berto.

The Polar caps historical data shows ice coverage shrinking year on year. That alone tells you it's getting warmer year on year.

2. Haven't seen any evidence to indicate things are no different.

Would like to see this. Saying it's just as warm today as it was this time last year isn't evidence.

The snowfall average is an argument I can understand, I would never disagree on that front.

Can you see other countries getting on board with climate change? Russia, China, Africans and the likes? What do these climate change bandwagon jumpers suggest?

Not you, not I, not posters on here but the social media gypes that know little on the subject barring watching an Attenborough programme once and using buzz words.

That's why campaigners campaign. To try and get the Russians and chinks on board.

 

How much difference it would make I doubt it would make any. 

Every little helps though. If you were told 20 years ago you have to recycle all your plastics cardboard and bottles or you'd not get your rubbish collected from the bin men you'd have said wise up. It's part of everyday life now.

In what way Boof?

When discussing certain rainfall and flooding etc. I look at certain 'dehta' and seems same to me.

Now I'm not claiming to be one of the more clever posters on here but explain?

I know there are certain differences but when arguing with these climate change monkeys, their arguments are very poor and easily argued with.

To me, it's an 'our generation' thing I like to call it, that many folk jump on topics like using the phrase 'oh climate change' but don't know what the fuck they are jumping on board with.

'Yeah but... icebergs melting' is the go to.

That'll do for starters.

And what is suggestion?

Ground flights. Stop fossil fuels is an easy thing to say but most people there today complaining about NO FOSSIL FUELS are in clothing made from the thing they want to do away with.

My ignorance isn't towards climate change, it's completely aimed at bandwagon jumpers.

All the banners and slogans but yet never an answer.

It’s not a bandwagon though, it’s a real event happening. 
Trouble is, there are too many folk who have the attitude “fuck it it wont affect me”

How much of a cunt must it be if you cone from a poverty stricken developing country. You have worked your fingers to the bone carrying buckets of water for 50 miles a day in your bare feet in 110 degree heat. You’ve done this for 20 years and have earned enough money to buy a vauxhall viva estate but unfortunately the government announces - nah sorry mate you can’t have that. The bar has been raised and you now need to buy an all electric bastard for £40k ??‍♂️?‍♂️

It's one thing I really am 'anal' about. I hate cunts who don't.

But what next? I'm not completely picking at you here, but you are responding, what are the main suggestions? I ask people this and no one seems to have the answer for it.

Some of it is complete stupidity.

I'm fucked if I know. 

 

Not my skill set.

 

Reducing carbon emissions seems most plausible given that's what's being held to account for causing it.

 

I'm no campaigner. Just like to see folk doing their bit.

 

Double edged sword however. Oil and Gas pays my bills.

I think you misinterpret...

I know it's a real thing. I have stated this. What pisses me off is the usual 'my generation' bam pots who jump on the bandwagon with something of this ilk despite knowing very little.

As you can see yourself, I'm wanting to be educated on it cause I've not taken a massive interest in world affairs.

My annoyance (as with BLM, trans folk) so many things go on social media and folk jump on board 'oh that looks a cool thing to be seen to be doing for likes'. That's my pet hate which has started this really.

Yeah i get that and agree with you wholeheartedly.

All i’m saying is that there is a bit of a difference between some of these things you refer to and climate change.

Climate change is not a Trend or a matter of opinion. The others things you mention are.

Anyway, i’m off out to start my car engines and leave them running in the drive. Will also turn my house heating (gas/air source hybrid boiler) up to max and leave the doors open with the lights on for good measure ??

That's got nothing to do with global warming. That's just gross stupidity in not relocating to where the water is.

The link to global warming there, is that so many developing countries now have improving economies, which allow their people to be able to afford cars. No way if you are in this position you are going to not buy a car because of the threat of global warming.

Thus massively contributing to an increase in CO2 emmissions.

And that's the end point.

You don't have the answers, we don't have the answers but neither do half the social media gypes who like to be seen campaigning. You ask the question... they give the same shite excuses.

Scientists seem to know the answers. They're better placed than Willie fae Inverurie.

A car is the least of their priorities if they don't have a tap with running water.

Not true.

I know many people who prioritise having a 70 inch TV and a smart phone over looking after their kids properly or buying decent food.

Folk are stupid that way.

Just now, Sooper-hanz said:

If you have a car but no running water then you won't be able to wash it nor top up the fluids that require water.

They wash their cars with dust in that places.

Oil, power steer fluid, clutch fluid, brake fluid is all you need for a succesful car.Glycol for windscreen wash if you must.

Water is optional.

Just now, Sooper-hanz said:

Im not sure ,matey. If you're living in a place where you have to walk 50 miles for water then the nearest Halfords is going to be a right fair trek.

Not in a vauxhall viva estate it’s not. ?

Plus, the roads won’t be busy.

No different to meeting a pal for lunch and beers for the fitba.

We had a pint and a bacon roll.

So you met for a pint, and had a bite to eat . I wouldn't call that meeting for breakfast.

Climate change is a fact, it’s what to do next is what the debate should be about.

However, idiots like Greta and the Greens that call for an immediate end to fossil fuels and oil companies etc are as deluded as the climate change deniers - just at the the opposite end of the spectrum.

They have no answers for a solution, but are quite happy to have all the benefits that having a carbon based modern lifestyle brings.

If you told these types that they’d not be able to enjoy the middle-class lifestyle they have been accustomed to, no gap years or foreign travel, no electronics or plastics in their home, no coffee shipped thousands of miles across the globe and paying much much more for everything while earning less than they do today, they’d fucking shit themselves.

Whilst I’m no eco-warrior, I’m like Boof where I’d like to do my bit where I can but there also needs to be something in it for me I.e financially.

I’m considering an electric car as our next family car, but only because it would be cheaper to lease it from pre-tax salary sacrifice. I offset my carbon emissions, but only because it doesn’t cost that much as my employer pays half. I’d be up for getting solar panels, but waiting for the Government to introduce some better incentives as they payback time is just too long at the moment.

100% this. Reasonable, we have to keep our environment as clean as possible and protect certain areas ( got it good here in Oregon ), but it would be insane and probably lead to mass deaths to cut off carbon  in this modern society. Literally almost everything is made from it or transported using it.

I am a working class bloke , I do not want to go back to virtual serfdom, which would happen should most carbon based things be abolished. The rich will always be OK. The rest of us would be in a very bad way.

As for electric vehicles. Think i will get one next year. Cheaper Tesla probably, unless the Ford F-150 electric  truck is good. Petrol is getting a bit dear. $3.70 a gallon here
