character building!!
I'm sure his kids will get ripped the piss out of the next time their dad is acting like a c**t like that.
Extinction Rebellion dad SOBS as he's 'so frightened' for his kids' future
Just found it, what a helmet.
That's because there aren't any!
100% nut jobs...
You can, because it's bollocks. Brazil isn't burning, the comments from Brazilians in that twitter thread say it all, half these people don't have the first clue what they're protesting about.
I have a business installing renewable energy systems. In total those systems have produced 1300MWh of green energy. I'm not on a moral crusade, it's a living (not a particularly good one) but I do care and believe in it. I've worked stupid hours today, stressed beyond belief, and then I see these melts prancing around with broomsticks thinking they are changing the world. They're doing more harm that good and making a mockery of the whole issue.
people used to use this sort of rhetoric against the suffragettes.
The hypocrisy is rank. The two biggest things any individual can do (by a mile) to make a difference is stop flying and stop eating meat. I've not flown for 2 years and only eat meat once a week having once eaten it at every meal. My choice, and I don't expect a pat on the back for it. The amount of people (obviously not all) who have done none of that but who feel they have the right to lecture others because they wave a placard in Westminster every once in a while is, frankly, staggering.
who is gonna look after the old people and pay taxes, if you feel that’s the best thing just kill yourself save on CO2 it’s for the grater goodPersonally I'd said the biggest thing by a country mile anyone could do is have fewer kids. Not only will you use up way less resources because kids need so much stuff and taking places etc. Plus it has a domino effect on later generations as fewer grandkids ertc will take up less space and require less resources.
Don't car if you have a house made entirely of solar panels and wind turbines, have an electric car and are totally vegan. If you've got 5 kids you're doing more harm to the environment long term than the guy in the Hummer taking his one kid to McDonalds.
This is what I respect - someone actually trying to change the way things are done and solve the problems rather than just whinge and moan but not come up with any practical solutions.

They have practical solutions. They want the government to tell the truth about what we face (climate emergency declaration was first part of that), they want a plan for carbon neutral by 2025 (arguable but still a plan), and they want a citizens assembly to oversee the transition.
They have enlisted social science researchers to find out how previous movements have been successful and are following their recommendations (non violent protest aimed at govt in the capital).
They are everything you claim to want.
Not really. They want a carbon neutral plan by 2025. What are the options that bring about that? What are the solutions? It's a vague wishlist they expect someone to fill in the details of.
Lots more of those massive ugly fucking windmills I expect will be part of the plan.

I find them strangely hypnotic
Same here and it’s certainly better than a nuclear power station on your doorstep.
I don't find turbines particularly nice to look at but preferable to cooling towers etc. I think tidal is a massive opportunity for a country like us.
I more think it's a bit of a waste of land having them (and they can be problematic for birds apparently). Same with solar farms. When I look out across the mass of roofs of houses in town I see a massive opportunity to have swaths of solar panels. Also wind generation but with the (IMO) more tasteful conical designs. Micro-generation isn't as efficient but it's got potential to generate a lot of energy and reduce dependence on other countries and individual reliance on infrastructure like the grid.
Agree with a lot of that, especially regarding solar. Thing with solar is it’s more cost efficient to use the power than sell it to the grid which begs the question why aren’t warehouse and factory roofs covered in them?
Mentioned before about Denmark realising that they’re too dependent on outside forces during the suez crisis and they started investing heavily in a self provided electricity grid during the 70’s and that inevitably meant renewable energy. They’re decades ahead of the majority of the western world on renewable energy and it wasn’t even an environmental decision in the first instance it was economical.
There are evolving ways of storing this energy now. Some very large scale and more efficient than batteries so promising for grid input on demand.
Don't know why warehouses and factories aren't covered in them - many have back-up generators etc. I thought that houses sold excess energy to the grid they didn't use? Guess ferret could answer that.
I hope we're sending people to places like Denmark on fact-finding missions and using them as a benchmark. But we still seem to be listening far more to the likes of the US, China and the Saudi's. Wonder why?
Terrible grammar check, spacing all over the place check, tedious stereotypes check, ignoring the actual issues at hand check.Nose piercing check,Hairy armpits check,Tories out/Socialist worker placard check,Politics student or unemployed check,Daddy is rich and dropped me off in his Chelsea tractor check,Charity shop clothing check there you go,Your a extinction rebellion member!!!
Naive question but, if it's all upscaled drastically, do we end up with stagnant oceans and still, desolate, arid plains?Same here and it’s certainly better than a nuclear power station on your doorstep.
Had the misfortune of catching a bit of Piers Moron giving someone a hard time on GMB this morning because they have a television so they’re a hypocrite. God I hate that chap.
when you've hacked a dead school girls phone messages giving her family false hope that she's alive you've really shouldn't be taking the moral high ground with almost anyone.

My understanding is that clean energy on its own isn’t the answer. While we’re still eating meat and dairy causing forests to be destroyed to grow animal feeds and form pasture land we’re doomed. Aside from the fact the fact that the industry itself is a very high source of Co2 it’s also the biggest cause of eliminating the very thing that takes carbon out the air so it’s a double whammy. The planet simply isn’t big enough to support meat and dairy eaters, until the eat meat and dairy mentality is gone we’re rowing up shit creak without a paddle.
Couldn’t give two fucks about climate change,It’s all left wing bollocks,Do as I say not as I do.Terrible grammar check, spacing all over the place check, tedious stereotypes check, ignoring the actual issues at hand check.
