Just for fun with this crowd
Zeke Hausfather @hausfath.bsky.social
We often hear folks skeptical of climate change claim that "the climate is always changing" or "temperatures rise before CO2" or "its the sun". In a new episode of PBS's Weathered, @leafwax.bsky.socialand I try and address these questions:
^ indeed.
the uk probably has enough energy under its land and seas for 50 years. coal, oil, fracking for gas etc.
but no, thanks to the power and influence of the minority pink haired carpet munchers, the man-bunned simpletons, and the lgbt hamas vegan slavery blm eco warrior, we cant use what's under our feet and so we ship timber from the usa and canada, gas from europe, all piped or shipped over at great expense, to burn in our power stations.
its fucking insane. but thats what our socialists want, and they are in power at the moment.
our electricity is the most expensive in the world, thanks to that and the green taxes added on. making our industry uncompetitive and our homes ridiculously expensive to heat.
why we dont use our own oil, gas etc. is beyond me.
What a fucking word salad. Clearly you are fuming from the ears, you angry old coffin dodger.Quote:

how does importing wood from the usa, brazil and canada and lpg from norway, angola, trinidad and the usa to burn in our power stations help in the uks impossible dream of attaining net zero.
the biggest emitter of co2 in the uk is the wood burning power station at drax near selby, and that is before the carbon emitted by the diesel powered machinery used to fell the timber, cut it up, transport it to the coast, load it onto the ships and bring it to the uk, where it is again offloaded and transported to the power station.
i believe selby in yorkshire sits on top of large deposits of natural gas that were going to be collected by fracking and piped directly to the nearby power station, thereby reducing both the uks carbon footprint by a sizeable amount and substantially helping our balance of payments and also lowering the extortionate bills domestic and business consumers are forced to pay for electricity, until the fucking eco loonies and false information distributing virtual signalling holier than thou lefties demonstrated at the proposed sites and the project was stopped by the government.
as i said harry, we are lemmings led by fucking donkeys, and naïve people like you lap it all up like the useful idiots you are.
the americans, the norwegians, the landowners selling us the trees and the shipowners are laughing in our faces in the same way that i laugh in your face for believing the utter bullshit you greedily swallow.
What a fucking dinosaur you are taxQuote:

At last some common sense from the govt recognising the necessity of it. The hippies, The abbos, man bunned bludgers are all howling with outrage . Ha ha. Good result innitQuote:

bld, nobody here gives a flying fuck what you think. so stick to the beer and whores threads where you feel more at home.Quote:

That's not very nice tax. Haven't you been reading spambreath threads? Or taking gretas advice
But it's a lot warmer and less miserable in Oz than the UK where you chaps are 11.5 months of the year huddled around the heater.our gas is mostly for industrial use. Not so much heating usage.i rarely use my gas for heating. Just for cooking and hot water. Seriously thinking of getting them solar panels on the roof and go solar. Gotta do my little bit for the environment and global warming. I've saved enough bargirls. Time to look after the planet now innit
Here's an idea though tax. You being an old windbag could set up a wind farm in you're backyard and harness all that hot air.you could probably run all of londonstan . And get paid. Win win
Starmer would have no chance against you.got my voteQuote:

I agree it makes little sense, but what the fuck does that have to do with what you said you mumbling moron?Quote:

Ha ha. The old pommy coonty is never pleased. I suspect it. Must have something to do with growing up in a cold and miserable place that resembles Pakistan. Gotta feel sorry for em actually.
when i grew up it was neither miserable nor like pakistan.
Glad to hear you've grown up, tax, although it's hard to tell from your posts. :)Quote:
