I remember more innocent times when there was no internet, no rabid discussion forums, no 24 hour news coverage and the papers (remember them?) were full of stories about rottweilers attacking children.

It's a harsh world for kids today.

I agree. A state of emergency would be perfect timing to build new energy and transport infrastructure, with much quickness and cheapness. Wind turbines, nuclear power stations (not French owned) and the Severn Barrage built in years rather than decades. A depression could be the best thing that's happened to the UK for centuries. Boomed.

It's called multitasking. DP is a master of the doomed variety

Credit crunch + fuel price increases = less fuel being burnt

BBC: UK 'needs tougher climate target'

The Committee on Climate Change (CCC) said a cut in greenhouse gas emissions of at least 80% by 2050 should include international aviation and shipping.

It said other industries would have to make up any shortfall in those areas.
