Given the undeniable connection between burning fossil fuels for power and climate change, it's wonderful to hear of this commitment to cleaner energy by the United Kingdom.

When we let politics trump science, people are needlessly put in harm's way. http://arstechnica.com/science/2017/01/self-censoring-fears...
Roldan Is that a reference to the US?
ReplyDeleteYes, well, 2025. That's ten years for the commitment to be altered. The coal industry isn't exactly thrilled by such developments.
ReplyDeleteRoldan My very first thought as well.
ReplyDeleteBut, BUT THE JOBS! THE JOBS!
ReplyDeleteThe UK already has decommissioned a huge coal plant that was located at Didcot. Time was, when I saw it out the train window, it was time to gather my luggage and get ready to go home. It's completely torn down now.
ReplyDeleteIt's a shocking sight with the clear blue sky.
ReplyDeleteSteve S I guess this is a reference to the pink floyd album cover.
ReplyDeleteThis is battersea powerstation, its been decommissioned for many years.
Pigs on the wing
ReplyDeleteThere is no climate change or global warming as Al Gore has said. Climate change is the biggest scam in our US history. No one knows what the earth was going through thousands and thousands of years ago but i ancestors knew. The earth is changing as it did long ago and now we're experiencing it as its been told.
ReplyDeleteJulio Gonzalez All your assertions mean nothing - facts please - but do you have any?
ReplyDeleteEasier to deny the truth than accept some responsibility and sacrifice a little comfort.
ReplyDeleteYou said it I didn't. Believe what you want to.
ReplyDeleteDoing nothing requires no sacrifice. Julie, you are the one who wants to do nothing in the face of mountains of evidence.
ReplyDeleteThe name is Julio. My friends call me Cujo.,. Your not my friend. So because you say so I gotta believe it. Let me give you a little secret it's my opinion not yours. Your opinion not mine let's leave it like that. People got the right to believe what they want to and not because somebody tells him so.
ReplyDeleteYou are entitled to your opinion, but facts are facts, and the science is clear, Global Climate Change is destroying the ecosystem on a catastophic global scale. You can bury your head in the sand, but I won't sit by and allow fools to spout their ill-informed opinions without contesting it, Julio.
ReplyDeleteSo where you going to beat me up come and get some
ReplyDeleteI don't care what you say what scientists say I don't care about none of these people its your opinion I have mine you have your theory I have mines that's my right so stick it phaggot
ReplyDeleteOh another thing that NASA did research study on the North Pole and the ice caps are growing back not melting. So where is your evidence
ReplyDeleteConsider it like a car... 5 mechanics agree that the problem with the car's rough idle is the timing is off, and they can see that its off using a timing gun or diagnostic computer.
ReplyDeleteYou're opinion here is like the owner's friend who insists that it idles rough because they are using the wrong brand of gasoline.
When the atomic bomb was created that's what causes the ozone to erupt and scientists know that but they won't say that
ReplyDeleteJulio, you don't even understand what you are talking about.
ReplyDeleteRadiation from all those years that have passed when they were exploding the atomic bombs we are feeling the aftermath but not what's going on today
ReplyDeleteThe earth is changing within it is one hp giant volcano. After the earth cooling the lava stay hot and is now to eating away at the inner core of the earth. Proving that the Pacific Ocean is heating up 18% more than it did in this whole entire history
ReplyDeleteI would love to see the science on that, could you please provide links to the sources on that?
ReplyDeleteIt's simple google it the era of the atomic bomb
ReplyDeleteIn today's world you have to have an open mind you can't believe what everybody tells you including me
ReplyDeleteI am curious to see your sources.
ReplyDeleteThere's no source or sources. It's common sense.
ReplyDeleteBAHAHAHAHA!!
ReplyDeleteAaand #blocked
Plant a tree for every person dead or wounded in Paris, help your neighbor do the same, insist your government create tax incentives for each citizen to plant 500 trees before 2075 and our children might find cause for hope. But, I doubt it. Let terror reign.
ReplyDeleteMeu desejo e que
ReplyDeleteDeus esteja connosco
Craig Froehle I am not proficient enough in the correct reading of some of the features - I do not know what you intend to communicate by BAHAHAHAHA!! what follows "Aaand blocked" I do get but am not sure to whom it is directed. I appreciate clarification.
