You will have to suck it up until you go to the USA in 10 years, drive around in a petrol car and pat yourself in the back that all the people in that ****hole didn't dictate to you what you can and can't do.

In 1960 it was an Ireland in terms of numbers 6.7 million, today its over 42 million. Thats repeated throughout the developing World. It's ridiculous. Every human being having children (myself) is damaging the planet as well.
Yet very little of the burning of fossil fuels that has triggered this climate crisis occurred in Africa. It took place in the west, whose industrial emissions are a key cause of global heating. It is a fact we should remember when millions of climate refugees from scorched and overpopulated nations seek salvation on our shores.

I have the ways and means and legality to relocate to the USA which i’ll be doing in the next 10 years. So in 10 years while you’re driving your battery car i’ll be going around in a V10.
easypazz wrote: » But you are being dictated to, whether you like it or not. In a few years you will be forced to drive an electric car. You are already being forced to pay more for electricity via the higher cost of renewable energy. If you burn coal at home you are forced to pay more via carbon tax. If you use diesel or petrol in your car you are being forced to pay a carbon tax. So you are being dictated to, suck it up.

Tell me how wrote: » Pivot! Pivot!! Pivot!!! You've gone through every position trying to undermine the efforts and impact of Greta's work.This is the reason I've continued to post on this insane thread, to allow climate change deniers to show their true colours in that they've got no other basis for arguing against Greta than basic hatred. The motivation for that hatred is particular to each individual, we've seen misogny, ageism, tin hat theory, faux child welfare concern, it's a tax ploy, selfishness, plain old ignorance and now it's a light hearted take.You are unique in that you've held pretty much each of these positions at various points across the thread so I suppose you deserve some sort of bingo award for that.
