She didn't win the Nobel Prize because man-made climate change isn't scientific enough, not enough proof.

I'm intrigued that some actually thought she would win, for what having a rant at the UN and skipping school?

I shall address any future replies directly to the alien puppetmaster riding on the back of your neck that has taken over your shell. What is it's name, so that I can address it correctly?

You forgot the thrilling ocean cruise of a lifetime in a multimillion racing yacht.

Was it not that climate change and it’s affect on wars that there wasn’t sufficient proof of? Nothing to do with climate change per se.

Good idea. Think I'll go find some companies making saddles and equestrian clothing and pile in to the max. Returns should be epic.

Ah sure youre right lets just focus on everyone having their own car because that will work out well for towns and cities

The majority of people are well aware that cars are not the way forward for towns and cities, unfortunately outside of larger cities/towns public transport is non existent. No need to even mention rurally.

Just in case anyone is wondering i didn’t go to the camp this morn. For 3 reasons

Kids were not overly interested
Rugby match is on
I was told by my buddy at the camp they were in clean up and take down mode and not much to be gained by dropping in this morning when they’d be busy

UPDATE - my friend meant he personally was leaving the camp this morn. As other posters have alerted - there is a programme of activities for the full wkend so I might mosey down tomorro.

More interested in this extensive research you carried out that suggests reintroducing Wolves to the Irish countryside is viable. Care to share that ?

In that case, the government should just take everyone's money from them and buy the things they think people should have. People are innately irresponsible and selfish and shouldn't be allowed to act with free will.

Bit extreme.
We regulate the treatment of animals and won't allow meat produced in certain ways be sold. Why not do similar with other products made by humans. Hardly radical.

The main threat from wolves would be livestock like sheep and lambs. But i’m guessing he thinks it’s not a bad idea because in his own little imaginary world thinks that meat will be banned because of climate change in the near future so it won’t be a problem having wolves running around the place, just a guess mind you.

Strange that they’re still advertising things for all day today and tomorrow. You’re a proven spoofer at this stage.

Sadly we won't know if you are correct or not as Beech keeps dodging the question I asked of him. As I said I believe he is just a clueless wind up merchant.

I have done loads of personal research. My thoughts/plan is a network of connected national parks stretching from just south of dublin in a vague semi circle all to way to Kerry. Connection “corridors” linking them. That would be easily enough space and room to roam for a pack of say 10 wolves.

We need secure fencing to mark the boundaries of the park. This would include concrete below the fence line to stop wolves digging out from below. And of course some sort of nets to stop ppl throwing in food trying to attract the wolves. That wouldn’t end well

How to “gain territory”- compulsory purchase orders. Ppl can live in the park once they have adequate fencing and roads in and out. I personally would love to live in it. Populate with native flora and fauna. Once it has good WiFi comms I could work from home in the middle of tranquil idyllic wilderness.

Don’t get me wrong Wolves are a fine fine animal. I have been up close and personal to a tame one that liked to be petted like a normal dog, but what about the threat to livestock, farmers living?

No livestock in the park obviously. Compulsory purchase orders to take over the small amount of farms required.

What about the environmental impact of fabricating the fence and digging up that earth and pouring the concrete?

Was going to go along today but someone took the village car to the pub and left it there overnight.

Thanks for confirming you're an absolute spoofer. Hilarious that your 'research' would come at an enormous financial and environmental cost.
Your employer is blessed to have such an intelligent individual on their payroll. ;-)

Eco fencing is available.

For anyone not with the programme. Eamon Ryan the leader of the greens wants wolves in Ireland. I happen to want it too. It’s a legitimate policy option.

I remember some years ago in the buy and sell magazine i used to see Wolf cubs for sale, there’s probably a small tame population of them in this country somewhere.

I hope Eammon doubles down and repeats that madness in the middle of an election campaign, people need to be reminded what kind of idiots populate the Green party.

We will never have wolves here but George Monbiot did a great Ted Talk on the reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone park and the positive impact they had on the ecosystem ultimately causing rivers to bend. Ireland has been sterilised a long time by farming and human habitat now so there's no point even thinking about it. We cant even build a bus lane ffs never mind CPOing farmers land.

Glad to see you approve of one-off rural housing and spending money on rural infrastructure, like fiber-to-the-home. Too many urban environmentalists are anti.
