Climate Change Bedtime Story

What alarmist BS!!
I much prefer the earler version where the mummy and daddy dinosaurs are wringing their hands with grief at having caused an earlier period of GW, wheelspinning their 4x4s all over terra firma, whilst simultaneously having belching and trumping contests.

Just wait until perma-front melts and releases plenty of methane

Is that what Dolly Parton's got? eek

Because the overwhelming majority of it is made from good old fashioned dinosaur type oil and gas.

The gas crisis appears to have been resolved..

energy crisis is postponed

Have you noted what it costs?

Indeed, the only oil that can be used in my motor is this one.

There's a good stock of synthetic oil at my local motor factors. Why can't they all switch to synthetic oil?

You can make petrol out of CO2 and sunlight.

Simples.

Who needs oil, we just need more CO2 and a sunny day.

If we are most of the way through our fossil fuels as one half of tree-huggers tell us, CO2 emissions won't be a problem for much longer for the other half.

Oil will never run out. It'll just get exponentially more expensive as it becomes harder to find until the demand becomes virtually zero, and the only place to buy a litre of petrol will be Sotherbys.

Now I'm not daft enough to think that oil won't run out at some point, however it's not this week.

When I was at school 30 years ago, it was predicted that we'd run out of oil in 30 years time... funily enough that's the current prediction too...

I don't remember 1998 as being particularly warm, only as the year David Beckham got sent off, David Batty missed a penalty, and Scotland lost to Morocco in the world cup.

The farmers need some new proverbs, to keep up with the times.

Red sky at night, shepherds delight
Red sky in the morning, shepherds warning

just dont cut in the the agw 21st century.


Hows about


Melting at the ice-caps, means more fuel tax
Cows fart in tune, more greenhouse effect soon


etc.

Who remembers back in the 1960's and 70's when all the best climate scientists in the world were predicting we were heading into an ice age? I do.

Me too. To be fair, the politicians back then did not have the nerve to try and wheedle tax money out of the populace to overcome the effects of this "Ice Age", unlike the current bunch of charlatans. All it needs to stoke things up is a ready supply of gullible knuckleheads like sg to buy into the propaganda and we are all stuffed.
