There's more to transition away from fossil than the weather, if your economy isn't tied to the oil industry your isolated from world commodity prices Ex - Norway have 96% renewable energy and 3% inflation ours is going to go over 10, Sweden are 54% and will have 4% inflation both are high EV adopters as well

There both designed to make you outraged because it hooks you into wanting more, the problem is it needs to ramp it up all the time so this week's culture war has to be worse than last weeks. Both talk radio and GBnews don't have experts on don't do in depth discussion and are just talking heads spouting off grievance based evidence free rubbish that wind their audience into a froth. I could give you loads of examples but it sounds like your hooked already By the way Talk TV is owned by the Murdoch's a billionaire who is quite happy to pedal extreme views on his media that garners power and influence over Politicians so they don't introduce legislation which hurts billionaire interests.

@douglas_gemini Why do you mock someone who is Autistic and has a heightened sense of minute detail is it because you are unable to imagine see or extrapolate changes around you. Greta lives on the shore of the Baltic sea due to global warming the sea is rising 5cm per year in her area the water is less noticeably saline through ice melt the Jet Stream is carrying 7% more moisture. All of these factors affect plant animal and fish life. I'm primarily an Economist what's wrong with fossil fuels is they are expensive compared to the current renewable alternatives the only reason we don't have more is lobby group pressure from the fossil industry to slow down investment in them. Governments also spend an unmeasurable amount of money cleaning up after fossil projects have finished. The cost of decommissioning and cleaning up UK North Sea rigs, pipelines and other physical infrastructure is estimated to be 75 billion. Then there is the economics of world commodity price fluctuation the North sea crude if it were owned by the UK government could supply UK only at $60 barrel it is trading at $108 and has reached highs of $125 Electricity in the UK is £200 per megawatt hour at spot price Dogger Bank offshore wind has a contract price of £40 Running Gas peaker plants is one of the most inefficient methods of grid balancing you can currently get cheap to set up Verses Expensive to run rather than investing in long term solutions.
