How do you know it is the fault of man ? I have sent them a few emails now telling them to look for Ice Core sample data that can be found on the IPCCs own web site that shows this has happened before, If it's happened before it can't be man made can it ? and still they choose to ignore it and say it's entirely man's fault. You just said they said otherwise. OTOH one of the BBC TV channels has broadcast a documentary that totally dismisses human activity and even atmospheric CO2 emissions as causes of global warming. Why would BBC do that if they were so one- sided about global warming? NO. That was Channel 4 and it was never claimed to be a 'documentary' either. http://www.channel4.com/science/micr...rming_swindle/ Graham This is pretty much correct. "This is the film that caused all the fuss. According to a group of scientists brought together by documentary-maker Martin Durkin, if the planet is heating up, it isn't your fault and there's nothing you can do about it." |

No, a good deal of them were plotting. You can read their MINDS now can you ? Better to err on the side of caution than have a dirty bomb going off in NYC, or even London, for that matter. You mean 'better to ignore the rule of law' just in case don't you ? Except apparently you can't see that. This is what happened in Germany under Hitler btw with those pesky Jews, gypsies, homosexuals and intellectuals. Maybe you'd like to lock those up too ? Here's a flash: the Muslims don't particularly like the British either... Some Muslims ARE British ! Are you saying they don't like themselves ? Graham Arguing for the sake of arguing. Pot, kettle Nah. I *KNOW* what I'm talking about. |

This is from a post I made this morning, after listening to the BBC: "China announces plastic bag ban" http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/7178287.stm (China has announced a ban on plastic shopping bags, just like San Francisco. But for what reason? The BBC reporter can't figure it out. Let's give him a hand!) _________________________________________ (I sent this comment to the BBC I can't understand why Quinten Somerville can't understand the Chinese concern with plastic bags. In his first report he said, "...there are bigger polluters like coal-fired power plants...". In his second report he said "Green Peace hasn't said anything about plastic bags". In both cases he answered his own quandry witin one breath: "...it takes 37 Million barrels of oil to prduce these bags..." The concern has nothing to do with pollution, or Green Peace; it has to do with the 37 Million barrels of oil. Why waste a resource to produce something that adds no value? The bags can't be recylcled into something of value, and oil resources can be used for much more lucrative pursuits such as computer parts, consumer goods or fuel for China's rapidly growing automobile culture.

What I was referring to was the reporter saying he couldn't understand why the Chinese were concerned with plastic bags when their power plants and refineries pollute much, much more. I found it amusing he didn't get the point that they don't give a hang about pollution; it's all about the oil!! |
