We offer an alternative to the lies & fake news of the mainstream media. We cover politics, the culture war, entertainment & current issues from a pro-European perspective

None of this gives people opposing efforts at arresting climate change, and deriding such efforts as 'Communism', any pause though - most of them in this thread are happily backslapping with this poster.

Should be suspicious of anything China is up to, dodgy bunch Correct. And India is messing with Kashmir. And Bolsonaro is a wannabe dictator. And Trump is a manchild. In all of this, man-made climate change exists and should be dealt with immediately. But China, India, Brazil and America won't be engaging anytime soon. So sit back, relax and pretend nothing's happening. Or pretend it's a great big lefty conspiracy. Or the scientists are lizard people. Whatever.

Well from my post that you actually quoted, you are the kind of person to lump everyone who doesn't 100% agree with you together. Which is strange since I have never once said I don't believe in climate change and I have probably done more to positively impact the climate/my local environment in a week than you have in your entire life, But hey don't let that stop you from complaining

KyussB wrote: » What type of heat pump? Ground sourced, or just the air-conditioning style unit? Heat pumps seem pointless to me, unless combined with solar - but when combined with solar (at a high enough CoP), seem ideal - with energy storage, enough to serve all electrical + heating needs, off-grid. It's only economical for your 'forever home', though - which you're going to stay in for at least the next 20 years - as the cost of solar, storage and the heat pump system, will take a long time to pay off based on todays costs.

Keep fighting the good fight even if it's probably pointless. You, in particular, might enjoy this quote from Martin Luther: "Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would fall to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree."

lleti wrote: » These kids really need to stop blaming people older than them. Greta blasting people for stealing her childhood and dreams when she's from a wealthy family in Sweden is just narrow minded. She's blaming all old people. Who are the ones who invented solar panels or electric cars, beyond meat burgers, the things she will say are the answer. Was it kids? No, it's the people she is blaming now. Back in the day these "boomers" would walk to school, get their milk in re-used glass bottles, no foreign holidays, no consumption culture, yet they are the ones to blame? Until these kids act better than the ones they are complaining about, I don't have any respect for them. Because in 10 years when these kids are now working and that they'll still be buying the iPhone X40 and going abroad on planes. The answer is population control. I'd love to see Greta debate with someone. "but she's only saying to listen to scientists" - if that's the case using kids is emotionally manipulative to get what you want. As for Greta, does she eat meat? If not, she could do with some. She looks malnourished. Has the frame of a 12 year old and she's 16.

There are zero links between what I post and Communism - there are at this stage dozens of direct and easily verified links with what that poster puts out and Libertarian propaganda sources.It should come as little surprise to people, that those who promote propaganda pouring doubt on climate change, and who suffer repeated delusional paranoia about alleged 'Communists!', are Libertarians - as they are about the only type of people on Irish discussion Boards, who serially do that - and there is even direct linking to such sources...
