Yes - because the political issue is CO2, not pollution. Co2 is a natural and a necessary gas but excessive production of it is a problem, the more so when it is accompanied by pollutants from using coal. oil or gas. But, as I pointed out earlier, all technologies involve pollution. Okay, - hopefully we are now back to talking about co2 and the chart that demonstrates how futile our attempts to reduce it further really are. |

Observations in the animal world belie that point of view. Some animals are born aggressive and always fight, others fight until they sense defeat and others do not fight and there is always a balance of said animals in any society. These are genetic traits because survival to breed a successful next generation is the only requirement. That survival also depends on successful learning but that learning is by no means laid on a blank canvas otherwise there is no point to successful breeding, the basic pattern is laid down with all the numbers in place, what happens in nurture gives rise to the colours used to colour it in. Much is reactive such as flinching and ducking on loud noises or aggressive behaviour, all of these can be modified by nurture and eventually thought but the genetic pressures are always there. "Said animals" are sensory beings, the final outcome is the product of nurture. If they have to fight in order to survive then that is what they do. There is a major difference between wild animals or those trained to fight, and a Human being. Some years ago I did some research into the 'Evil Gene', the end result was that some people do carry the potential to be violent but not everyone with this built in trait becomes violent, everything depends upon nurture. Humans are sensory aware for the last three months in the womb, and that is where sensory learning begins which for most will be a warm comfortable place where all their needs are met. From there people learn to be violent by experiences in the world they enter. They don't leave the womb looking for a fight. Docile cattle were sought out and bred for their temperament which was a genetic trait irrespective of nurture, some dogs were bred for their aggressiveness and fighting capabilities largely inherited, some for their puppy qualities which is another genetic trait. The Hawk and Dove observations from many biologists noted that those bred from animals deemed Hawk had similar genetic traits of aggressiveness, those deemed dovelike were much less aggressive. Identical twins separated at birth and nurtured in different ways display similar inherited qualities. Successful breeding is the principle means of passing on genes and those genes are adapted to survive best in the environment in which the parents of their survival mechanism survived. That is done best by the genes creating a survival mechanism that will behave, act and feel in specific ways as those are the qualities best suited for survival and procreation. These attributes are honed through the nurturing process and in line with all good survival mechanisms it can adapt within the nurturing process. |

Nature over nurture .is lefty Kryptonite.
In fact nature being a significant factor in our psychological make up is lefty Kryptonite.
Expect more quasi psychological flannel.

Killing off OAPs on £218 a week is about ''balancing the economy'' in your opinion? That's a horribly new low - even for a far lefty apologist like you Nope, I have posted a number of times that I disagree with the cut in WFA, but balancing the economy is what the government is about. Your childish attempt to insult me with your lies only exposes your 'Dark Legend' DNA and the fact that lying Rightists like yourself are a total waste of space. Dark legend?? Good god see2 you’ve been watching too many Batman movies.  |
