    OK it's just another analyis, but for me more plausible. The CO2 in the atmosphere is absolutely tiny. What we add does not make a significant difference to the temp. Water vapour and other factors beyond our control are way more important. We should be learning to deal with climate change, as the climate has always been changing. Doesn't mean we should waste energy or not invest in renewables, but gestures like this earth day are pointless distractions.
    it's a direct result of all the hot air expelled by the blowhard's on here.

    Interesting article. I don't believe all of this climate change nonsence is man made.

    But the government are dealing with it.

    Such a simple solution, apply a green tax and job done. No need for further changes, development or investment, just price everyone out of their homes and cars and sit back and watch the economy meltdown. That will generate enough heat to keep us all warm.

    Fear not, it won't be a problem in the future when we're 100% nuclear

    Only the gypos will be using old school gas and coal to heat their poxy caravans.

    Can't they schedule this type of activity much later in the evening when it will affect less people?

    The same people will still buy £3 jeans from Tesco without a thought of where they have come from or how they got here... bloody hypocrites.
