We just shipped the problem elsewhere and then called out the new producers for their pollution damage.

We also need to replace the trees that process said co2 and strip pollution out of the atmosphere.

In 540 a.d. great swaths of the east and south coasts were flood plains or under water. Climate changed and we built upon them. Climate gives and climate takes away 🤷 once upon a time the plains around York were flooded, now they're not, but they can be.

When I first moved to where I live now, 45 years ago, the village spent two thirds of the year surrounded by mist, fog or low flying cloud. It was a guarantee that any sunny day would be followed by four in which we'd not be able to see a hand in front of our face. Now fog is definitely the rarity. There's definitely not as much snow 🤔 plus I'd be inclined to say that the winds ain't what they used to be either but I don't want to tempt fate. Climate change is as natural as the changing tide and that wind blowing. Back in the 70s they were forecasting an imminent Ice Age. In 540 a.d. the landward area surrounding the Wash was floodplain or underwater, as were other parts of the east and south coasts. There was a time when the York plains were under water, not just occasionally flooded. There are inland towns that used to be ports 🤷 Climate is what it is.

@sirrathersplendid4825 oh great, let's all breathe in pollution so that the planet won't do what planets do 🙄 wonderful idea.

@sirrathersplendid4825 equally it lets the heat out at night. Swings and roundabouts 🤷

When I was a child the science, and its vacuous practitioners, said that we were heading for an imminent ice age. Yeah, like that happened! But what it/they did do was stir up fear. Same idiots, same issue. The difference then though, the reason why it didn't bring the world to near collapse then, no mobile phones & no internet 🤷

You only have to live in the UK to realise that the climate is in constant flux. It always has been and it always will be. Trying to stop the change is like trying to stop the tide and Canute has already proven that a mere man, even one with a crown, cannot do that. With a growing global population we need the extra co2 to produce extra food. We also need to plant extra trees, to replace those lost through deforestation, to absorb the extra pollution and to recycle that extra co2. We need to stop stripping the land of its life, before it becomes so depleted that it produces nothing of nutritional value, and employ regenerative farming techniques that increase production. Man cannot live by rock alone 🙄 Then we need to grow more animals to make use of land that cannot be utilised for planting. At the same time we need to realise that plant production is actually more resource hungry than raising animals. That combining arable with pastoral farming is not only good for the land, it's good for us PLUS it's good for the planet.

He was a naturalised leftwing Marxist but he fought to defend this country. What have you done for her?

@Lurch685 There are more trees on earth now than in 1982 but 46 percent less than there before humans started chopping them down for firewood, for fields or simply for fun. But it's not just the number, it's the quality, the variety and the age. Unlike water filters, the older and bigger they are, trees can clean more pollution out of the atmosphere than they could when brand spanking new. A 2020 Yale report notes "Deforestation, land-use change, and forest management are responsible for a gross loss of over 15 billion trees each year.". Sadly the 16 trees I planted in my garden aren't going to fix that.

@Lurch685 where's my response gone 🙄 there are more trees now than there were in 1982 but that wasn't the point of what I was saying. The gist of which was we grow the wrong sort of trees, many in the wrong places, for too short a time and my weedy orchard of 18 trees isn't adding much to the battle

@sirrathersplendid4825 🤔 isn't that where we came into this conversation?

Algae bloom poisons fish and the environment they live in. Introducing rabbit (mice and rats) into Australia, was an ecological disaster. And you want to introduce algae into the sea 🤦😱🐒
