There is a “climate emergency”. Saint Greta tells us so it must be true. They have even got David Attenborough telling us. That is why people from all over the world are flying to the UK in their private jets to talk about saving the planet.

Starting today, SNP controlled Glasgow in SNP controlled Scotland will become a global joke called COP26. As the rubbish piles up in the streets and the rats (mammalian rodent-type) roam the streets, the eco-warriors will be gluing themselves to things – assuming that they can find some form of transport to actually get to Glasgow.

Which of the big Western nations can come up with the most far-fetched unachievable “zero carbon” promises? If they held this pointless talking shop on Facebook, there would be no excuse for Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping not showing up – other than Facebook is probably blocked in China. If they had their own Facebook page, Saint Greta could post brainwashed drivel on it to her heart’s content and a few choice quotes would get onto mainstream media so everyone would be happy. If she rocks up in Glesga, I am sure some teenage Weegie would be happy to give a damn good seeing to like any other teenage bird will be getting.

With all the rain we've been having in Scotland the Crap26 delegates will be scurrying around like drowned rats.

"Bellamy's later statements on global warming indicate that he subsequently changed his views. A letter he published on 16 April 2005 in New Scientist asserted that a large proportion (555 of 625) of the glaciers being observed by the World Glacier Monitoring Service were advancing, not retreating.[24]George Monbiot of The Guardian tracked down Bellamy's original source for this information and found that it was from discredited data originally published by Fred Singer, who claimed to have obtained these figures from a 1989 article in the journal Science; however, Monbiot proved that this article had never existed.[25] Bellamy subsequently accepted that his figures on glaciers were wrong, and announced in a letter to The Sunday Times in 2005 that he had "decided to draw back from the debate on global warming"

From a very young age, I've always been able to do an excellent David Bellamy voice. Better than Lenny Henry on Tiswas in fact, which should give you some indication of just how good it is.

Even did a parody song on stage as part of a school performance. True story. Sadly no recording was ever made and like an undiscovered Lennon masterpiece, it's been lost forever.

The conclusion to be drawn, therefore, is that we should accept everything that George Monbiot writes for the Garuniad as being gospel and we should head back to the seventeenth century, pre the Industrial Revolution, and all travel about by horse and cart living off the land (owned by just a few rich people who we rent our farms from) doing what is definitely best for the planet because a handful of crazed Lefties tell us so.

If we are going to worry about "discredited data", how long before crazed Lefties take note that Karl Marx (that middle class hypocrite) has been proven wrong for over a century so it is time to give up on the delusion.

So that would be a time before The Grauniad was founded on money from the racist cotton slave industry according to George Monobrow <ok>
 
Climate deniers should get out into the real world to see the effects of climate change instead of hiding in their rooms reading conspiracy theory nonsense.

The scientific process is built on cynicism. The minute people start dismiss people who question reports that actually abuse the scientists conclusions, it's reasonable to dismiss those same people as being ignorant of the facts and lacking an understanding of what science is.

If you check back, I don't deny climate change. What I have pointed out is the abuse of science for other ends. Sadly, people like to put things in boxes and look at those things in isolation, and that's usually based on some bastardised version of the actual scientific reports.

If the underlying issues are genuinely as is claimed, then the 'solutions' are an expensive way to make things worse.

That moon is a ****ing ****, I've always said so.

Maybe one day in the future humanoids could land on it and give it a good ****ing kicking whilst a flag in the background merrily flutters away in an atmosphere deficient land of blue cheese.
