You're right of course. Thats why I got out of politics. No point getting into the discussion. Tell em something new and they hate you for it...Off on Sunday for a 4 week coarse in eco village design. Temporary relief from the insanity around us...
If you've ever taken the trouble of visiting a camp like this one, you'll soon become aware that one of the most important things is cleanliness. Extraordinary measures are taken by everyone to achieve this.
Find it amazing that nobody is interested in the actual issues involved here and that's...
They are actually out there not just to stop a runway that even if built, will never be used (peak oil) but to defend your and their democratic rights.

Sure biofuel can be produced by used chip fat
but there's hardly enough chip fat to go around. Once peak oil hit's, all imported food will either cease or be too expensive so we will have to produce more food locally. There's just not enough land to sustain (feed) ourselves AND produce biofuel...
Biodiesel is not the answer. Rain forests are being destroyed to make way for palm trees that produce biodiesel (so co2 rises). Agricultural land that we're going to need to feed an ever increasing population is being used to produce biodiesel.
