It's not the production of fossil fuels that are the issue you retard it's their burning. Talk about ill-informed. The only way oil is green is if you leave it in the ground as locked carbon. I've tried to keep it polite but I'm not going to be called a "retard" by the likes of you. There are some very clever people on this forum "Montegriffo" but sadly you're not one of them. And as a "moderator" you're a total disgrace. I have never reported people but I will report your post because you're abusing your position. FYI the burning of oil - as I've already pointed out to you - is entirely clean provided that you don't use diesels (as the ecomentalists recommended). CO2 and water are both entirely natural constituents of the atmosphere - in fact they're essential to all life, except some microbes like you maybe. If you're trying to say, in your usual inarticulate fashion, that we're returning the CO2 back to the atmosphere in a shortened timescale to when it was removed, of course. That's the consequence of the increased population. Malthus pointed out many years ago that there is a limit to how many people the Earth can support. But who cares. The CO2 will cause greater growth of plants so it will attempt to balance the shortfall. You don't understand how the Earth's buffering works - or much else. Jeez. You really had to twist your words to make that sound right. Increased atmospheric Co2 is due to increased population. Increased population who are pumping increasing amounts of Co2 into the atmosphere. So in short AGW. You finally got there. Of course there's no reason we cannot have increased population and NOT pump tons of Co2 into our atmosphere and if its a choice between a cull and cleaning up our energy production, I'll go for the latter. As for plants taking up the slack for us, its not happening Co2 part per million in the atmosphere is increasing every year. The plants say they're doing their best but the animals keep eating them and the heat dries them out. Turns out they need more than just tons of Co2.

Sure, environmentalists are burning down forests. In other news the EDL are beating up neo-Nazis. My response to Pacifco was relating to what has been going on in Greece. I'm unsure why you feel the need to dismiss it and try and undermine other people's arguments, whilst adding nothing of value.
No one in Greece claimed the fires were started by environmentalists. Most are arsonists. Kids who think its funny to start fires. Are their more this year? Or is it just that the land is so dry it takes very little to start a massive blaze. Greek fire fighters are saying the reason many of the fires have started in close proximity is likely due to the ease with which the fires can trigger where a single ember will invariably start a new blaze. When looking at the cause of so many fires across Europe consider that the land has to be very dry to go up in flames so often. So unless eco zealots have stopped the rain as well then I think you're barking up the wrong tree.

Because you made the accusation without evidence that the arsonists were eco-terrorists. As for undermining other people's arguments, welcome to debate forums. If you were expecting an echo chamber you are in the wrong place. Value, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.

According to Greece's senior climate crisis official the fires were started across the country by criminal negligence and intent. For me this spells out eco-terrorism, which is being peddled by the media as fear porn whilst the left-wing fascists are pushing for more state control over the little man. Sure, environmentalists are burning down forests. In other news the EDL are beating up neo-Nazis. Dont know who is burning down forests , but what we do know is the greek authorities blamed arson for what happened on Rhodes , while the media and others were quick off the mark to imply it was climate change.
Further , this blame fires on climate change isnt new or specific to greece......

You miss the point. Fires aren't started by climate change they are enabled by it.

You offered nothing to challenge it except a childish dismissal and an odd deflection toward something completely irrelevant. I haven't posted anything to even suggest that I want an echo chamber.

So you do want people to dismiss and undermine other people's arguments? It feels like you wish to do it but don't want people to do it to you. Sounds like an echo chamber to me.

Thank you. I'm going to need it with so many people with vested interests in ignoring the issue.

Thank you. I'm going to need it with so many people with vested interests in ignoring the issue. climate change is an interesting subject. I may have said im a member of a weather forum , with a long term amateur interest in the climate . There are arguments for and against man made climate change i have read for years by people better informed than you or i.
What doesnt help the argument either way is the over the top reporting on things like fires as somhow being linked to climate change.
When the greek government blames arson , and anyone who has ever visited an island like rhodes as i have done 30 years ago before climate change became fashionable among middle class liberals , could see its countryside is hot dry and extremely prone to fires , yet climate chagne supporters are reduced to alarmism once more without substance , then you can see why many people are becoming sceptical. Its called over egging the pudding.
You are going to need all the help you can get. When the ordinary working man sees the damage all this net zero malarky is going to do to his standard of life , then all the net zero parties including the muppets in the snp are going to take a fucking tanking at the polls. I think the tories are starting torealise this which is possibly why they are starting to allegedly draw back from commitments , so it will be interesting to see how this all pans out.
ULEZ in glasgow so far has been an unmitigated disaster , with previous pro climate individuals being vocally against the 100 fines a day scam on oridnary working people , not to mention the hundreds of thousands of pounds they have scammed off the motorist.

You inferred something based on your own misinterpretation of my post, so your irrelevant question is pointless. This is seen by the fact that you omitted the use of the word "childish".
If you want to challenge my original post then please have the decency to offer me something to work on.

ULEZ is about air quality not climate change. There is nothing to stop you driving a CO2 belching vehicle into city centres so long as it complies with the rules on how many harmful particulates it emits.

So you didn't say ''For me this spells out eco-terrorism'' in reference to the fires being arson in some cases? Did someone hack your account?

This Mind Zone thread is being trolled by the forum moderator. Any responses on my part can be used against me, and since there's no point in this exchange I will leave it there.

There is nothing to stop you driving a CO2 belching vehicle into city centres so long as it complies with the rules on how many harmful particulates it emits. I drive a 2.2 diesel that complys with glasgows ULEZ simply because of its age , while older vehicles are being punished. The fantasy of vehicle emissions has long been ridiculed since the days of volkswagon caught tinkering to much mirth and laughter.
I mind the jokes going about forums that a nine teen sixties steam engine , with pictures of one belching out black smoke had lower harmfull emissions than a new volkswagon.
ULEZ is part of the climate change scam. organisations like public health scotland are telling us its part of the fight against climate change , and as for glaswegian air pollution we know from data its been falling for years.
As i said monte , poorly thought out arguments , while hammering the ordinary working man in the pocket are going to destroy any figment of credibility in climate alarmists.
The scottish green party headed by that clown patrick harvey has already been widely ridiculed across our country for his damaging comments and aims regarding gas boilers , where he nearly set off a wave of mass hysteria about them being phased out in scotland.
Mark my words. the same mistakes remainers made regarding brexit , where they over egged the pudding with predictions of armageddon are being made once more by climate alarmists which will have predictably similar results
