Nothing against sensible alternatives to fossil fuel, but apart from nuclear and hydro there just isn't anything.I reckon BB and TBYJ have hit this very large philosophical conundrum nail on the head...Originally posted by TheBigYinJames View PostI suspect this is where all the frustration and emotion in the whole Climate Change debate comes from.
On the one hand, the Climate Scientists are saying "oi, beware!" and politicians won't agree or make changes. On the other the 'skeptics' are saying "taxing us and making us sort our rubbish into 4 bins is doing nothing!"
Everybody is frustrated because there's really very little can be done about it, even if it is true."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."
