and I'm sure the same people here would condone the use of the police on the yellow vest movement in France?

what evidence do you have fior this aside from anecdotal?

Those rioters who vandalise and torch buildings? Yeah I can't imagine why anyone would condone the use of police on them.

Er....

Just seen images of two of them stood on a train to hold it up.

Why are they targeting public transport if they’re worried about global warming?

Surely they want more people on public transport rather than in cars.

They just want something to do,so thought it was a good idea to stop people doing what they should be doing like working ! Wonder how they would feel if a member of their family was held up in an ambulance,do these idiots even think about other people when getting carried away their futile protest.

Don't give them too much credit for thinking skills.

I admire what they are trying to do but here in the west we are so in thrall to consumerism I think apart from slinging a few plastic bottles in the recycling, people really aren't going to change their habits that much...


For instance, this thread sank like a stone

Sure Cherie
but loads of these Middle Class Group
have stupid demands

Ban Air Travel
Ban Cars
Disconnect Gas Boilers in the UK


Both Labour or Conservative would never do those bans

Well that is stupid :skull:

2 Middle Class protesters are now on a train
Dressed smart.

Ref: CNN Talk HD Live Debate

Have you got a source for that? I'd be interested in having a read.

Considering how close to a precipice we are and how many lives climate change could end if we fall over the precipice, a broken window doesn't matter in the slightest.

The truth of the matter is that we are ****ed, the children even more so because climate change is their future and everything is just ****ed.

Two Police are now getting them off

I will post a photo soon.

I want a source for the claims you are making about the demands being made, not a photo.

I already know you've got the middle class part from Boulton, now I'm interested in where the rest of it comes from.

Photo in a min.

I wonder how many of them drive a car,smoke and use hot water ,leave lights on ,drop litter,use plastic,use chemical cleaning products ,I wonder how many actually recycle.

I don't want a photo. You have said the group are making ridiculous demands, whereas the kid on SkyNews HD ABC DEF GHI, said nothing of the sort.

You are lucky I had time to help you.

That's like asking how many muslims eat pork...

Yes most drive a car
Their freak leader will want them scrapped

I mean, I’m all for the cause, something does need to happen about the environment, it’s a critical issue, but smashing windows and disrupting innocent people’s days isn’t going to endear many people to feel sympathy for your cause, vandalism doesn’t make you a martyr, it makes you a common criminal

Yes but No more Flying for you

Its all very well screeching that the government needs to do something, we need to take personal responsibility for instance how many Easter Eggs will people consume this weekend full of palm oil and packaged in plastic ..

Very lucky you provided me with a screenshot of vague list put together by someone in a newsroom. Thank you.

My Pleasure.

You can take mah jets

but you cannae take my easter eggs

That's a sacrifice I'm not willing to make.

given that a couple of towns in China do more environmental damage than the entirety of the UK, I think their anger is misdirected

i bet hardly any of them could aswer some basic meteorological questions

and i bet they have no udea where forecasts actuallycome from and how unreliable most can be and how reliable others can be

they are probably all taking stuff from sh1tty accuweather from their iphones

:facepalm:

lol did the loonie AOC help them with that?

:joker:

all jokes aside we can cry all we want but very few will give up consumerism to save the planet

This question was put to a protester and the response was we have to start somewhere and lead the way and hope other countries will follow, which is fair point I suppose :shrug:

I don't agree with what they're doing, but this isn't a weather forecast issue, it's a climate issue. I know you trust and believe in best science we have, and that says that we're in the sh1t. Climate denial used to belong to the dumb right in the US, or is science-denial creeping over here too?

The packaging on those things is out of control, no reason they couldn't be packaged in bio-degradable materials.

Its crazy, I suppose you can recycle most of it but why not just reduce the amount of packaging in the first place :skull:

plus the fact that people will consume their bodyweight in chocolate

There was a book once called SuperFreakonomics sequel to Freakonomics that said that global warming could be combated by putting sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere, that would dim the effect of the sun and cool the planet, for relatively low cost.

I don't know how realistic it is.

Here's some links -

Yes Very True.

Oh that sounds genius. Let's but a toxic chemical into our breathing space... one that is naturally caused by the burning of fuels so it must be good... one that can easily convert into other harmful compounds... but it's for global warming :shrug:

Yes they Demand no more flying
like that USA green deal
its not realistic.
