If they're saying it, it must be all lies - I'm off to set fire to some plastic! |

Welcome to the fold -- though wood (from a sustainable source) is preferable to plastic |

| I was just kidding... I have absolutely no doubt whatsoever that man-made CO2 is a major contributing factor to the state of the planet. |

It's not to be sniffed at, 14% of global methane emissions come from farm animals. Happily help is at hand, Scottish scientists are leading the way in the war against global bovine farting ...

I'm watching an episode of 'Qi' just now and there was talk of the man who is responsible for more pollution of the planet than anyone else. Do you recognise his face?
click here to find out who he is. The guy came up with the idea of putting lead in petrol and also of CFC's! He died by getting caught up in a harness designed to help him overcome the polio he developed at age 51.. so it's not all bad. |

This is a clip from the documentary and pretty much paints the picture of my assertions that man's actions are affecting change. The film is basically an expose of 'Exxon Mobil' and well worth a watch if you have any interest in the link between environmental destruction and corporate bastardness - or even in the hope that there will still be a habitable planet for our descendants! |
