@LoftusSteve Per head?
That's not a good measure in reality given the places that don't have privatised water also don't have a high population density.
Why not use clean water leak per mile of pipe?
Is there a reason not to use leak per mile?
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack Oh joy another straw grasping tangent.
Your scattergun approach to debate is tiresome.
But you know this that's why you do it.
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack No need to SHOUT.
So despite renewable energy being demonstrably cheaper than the fossil fuel burning alternative governments are going to do what create a competing oil company or renationalise existing ones?
All based on one man's theory remember.
Your not a serious person.
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack OK given we have known about climate warming for 50+ years after it was predicted over a century ago.
(Regardless of the cause)
I have to ask the obvious.
Why haven't any of these solutions been implemented already?
It's an honest question btw.
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack Also could you give me an example of when fossil fuel companies have volunteered to give money to the general public?
They didn't spend 100 years securing the position as the dominant power provider on the planet just to give it all back.
Unfortunate accidents are cheaper.
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack I still feel like you are missing the point here.
If your assessment is basically civilization is fucked because nothing humans do has a big enough effect
The billionaire bunkers make perfect sense in that scenario.
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack 2/2
The only thing they could do to hold things together is ban any warming effects created by man to mitigate the worst of the effects.
AbsoluteZero policy.
I suppose it will highlight who has the real power the politicians and the people or the fossil fuel companies.
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack You misunderstand my point.
If CO2 only accounts for 12.5% and we can do nothing about space weather what do you think will happen to world order when politicians say we can't affect what's coming?
Total collapse of social norms and controls.
1/2
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack If there really is an effect that accounts for 80% of the climate warming over the last century or so then the only course of action is to do 100% of what we can to lessen the effect going forwards right?
If you think NetZero is mad wait for absolutezero policy.
@TheDisproof@Yellow_Dog1959 He also blocks you if you mention his funding.
Given the think tanks he works for are funded by fossil fuel related organisations.
Funny that.
@neilsunnerton@TheDisproof Only pedantry if it's of no consequence.
However if the continued existence of civilization as we know it is at stake you'll excuse those of us that require our experts to know what the fuck they are talking about.
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack Well that's a whole lot of assumptions and suppositions to base the continued existence of a civilisation on.
IF true (that's a huge IF) it's the end of fossil fuel burning. yer boy should be careful they don't like that sort of thing.
@SwissKrono_JH@docrussjackson What like the one we had before Nigel's campaign to take back control?
Won't they just leave from somewhere else in Europe?
We'd need an agreement with all European countries for it to work.
You know like we used to have before Nigel came to save us from the thing he caused.
@DavidforZalm1@PeterDClack Well come back in half a decade or so and then you can ask about basing government policy on science that would then be proven.
Till then
Look outside yep stuff still burning.
Would you mind waiting while the world deals with what's happening not what someone thinks is happening.
