    But I'm intrigued to know the "right box". One of the Remain boxes, obviously, but could it be the "no man-made climate change?" and I'm doubly cretinous?
    Anything is possible in these crazy days, my friend.

      The options are far too ambiguous. I'm sure there has been "man made climate change", for various reasons, increased CO2 being one of them, but global deforestation and land use changes probably being bigger ones (over the course of millennia).

      But I don't think that we should bother doing much about it. I don't think the level of global warming is much to worry about, and I certainly don't think we should be changing the whole planet's economy to reduce greenhouse gasses. Antarctica won't melt and sea levels won't rise a great deal or at a rate that can't be managed in most areas locally.

      So which option should I pick?

        Exactly. It would require a leap of faith to believe any of that. I'll stick with what I know be true now thanks.
        Will work inside IR35. Or for food.
