    Why bother at all? That's where I'm at. Politicians don't listen and care less to act. Nature will teach humanity a lesson never to be forgotten. Therefore plan for the worst and hope for the best. Make your home up in the mountains far from the tide. The South east is fooked by the by.

    The UK impact on global climate is so insignificant the best motivation to recycle and keep on the 'green' side of things is by doing so you contribute to a better local environment.

    UK workers must move to nine-hour week if carbon levels do not change, says thinktank.

    Excellent. Only I can do 9 hours in a day then jet off somewhere for a 6 day break.....
    Execute aggressive tax avoiders and use any property that their exes haven't walked away with, to plant trees.
