Greenpeace - Climate Criminals !!!

<< < (4/4)

BRO:
On climate change related to global warming the ABD had an article about there seems to be a fashionable view which is blinkered and an objective view looking at the reality of the fact!

It seems many scientist disagree with the fashionable conclusion 'that the world is getting warmer because of human activity' - but if they speak this view they have trouble getting funding for their research!

From "The letter Science Magazine refused to publish" http://www.staff.livjm.ac.uk/spsbpeis/Scienceletter.htm

"Of all 1117 abstracts (about global warming), only 13 (or 1%) explicitly endorse the 'consensus view'."

"does SCIENCE really want to stand behind her bizarre claim of a complete scientific consensus on global warming? Are you not aware that most observers know only too well that there is absolutely *no* consensus within the scientific community about global warming science?"

Interesting reading in light of the media and government steam-rollering!  :shock:

--- Quote from: "landyloony" ---
--- Quote from: "muddyweb" ---Because standard letters get ignored.  As soon as someone gets 2 the same, then they are devalued.

Much better to write a letter expressing your own personal worries, questions, comments, etc.

To be honest, all the information is out there, so if you want to find out about emissions, etc.  you can.  That way you will also be better informed and prepared when it comes to dealing with the berks you meet in real life.

How about you write down all the ways in which you do your bit for the environment, like recycling, insulation in the home, sharing your car, walking to work, energy saving bulbs etc.  Then write down how you use your landrover.  I guess it's a deisel so 30 mpg is not hard to prove.  Go to the 4x4 prejudice website in some peoples signatures and see how many other cars are less efficient than yours.  Think about why you need your landrover, and write something positive about exploring ancient byways in a responsible manner, caring for the countryside and generally having a good time being there.  You could mention that seeing the occasional 4x4 in the countryside doesn't bother you or disturb your day, and that you would expect to see such vehicles there.  I was able to mention that because I have a large family, that having 7 seats means that we can have only one car instead of two.  You could also mention that the childish bickering between good cars and bad cars is not helping the issue and that the only real solution is to bring fuel cell cars with zero emissions into play, our MPs could push for this.  I mentioned that the antis and their fake parking tickets and propoganda were creating an air of intimidation and fear across the country and that this could develop into the american situation where families, their kids, their cars and their homes are targetted by these groups.  

-Basically show that you care about the climate and are doing your bit to offset your vehicle emissions.
-You need your 90 defender and use it responsibly to explore the countryside, and it is your right to drive this kind of car.
-Your 90 is no more poluting than most if not all high performance cars such as porsches, jags, and even many people carriers.
-The anit 4x4 movement is simply using fear and intimidation to target us and what's needed is proper engagement with the issues and cooperation.
