The government made a 'promise'? Yes, that is clearly reassuring. Because no UK government has ever broken a promise before has it? How about some actual legislation to back it up?

Sorry, I missed that. OK, I'll rephrase my original comment to: Very pleased to see this has already been mentioned. :thumbsup:

Surprised this hasn't got a mention:

Right here in my home town we broke the all-time Dutch national temperature record (from 1944) yesterday - 39.3°C. By all accounts that record's only going to last 24 hours and we could top 40°C for the first time this afternoon. Hottest in my life though? Probably pushing 50°C, twice. Once in...

It's starting to look that way...

To be fair, any Luxembourg side winning anythng is notable...

It's pronounced Dudel-arnj (i.e. similar to the ending of 'orange' said with a French accent). Not Dudel-ang. So this entire thread is null and void. Hope that helps. :thumbsup:

You don't seriously believe that will happen, do you?

Ho well. There goes the country...

I think given the overwhelming evidence in 2019 proving climate change to be a fact, there are only two types of people who continue to deny it: 1) Idiots / the wilfully ignorant, and 2) People sponsored in some way by big business who have a vested interest in not changing anything. And yes...

Presumably you are referring to the report earlier this year by the Global Warming Policy Foundation, that well-known climate change denying organisation with a political agenda that has links to and is likely funded by big oil? OK.

I've heard good things about Fanny Morgan's organ skills.

It's fine to be sceptical, but relying on a solar minimum to save us is clutching at straws a bit. Most peer-reviewed studies, as I'm sure you will agree, suggest that it will only have a limited effect on stemming the rising temperature trend. It might kick the endgame a decade or so down the...

That's not ambiguity over the data, it's micromanaging the data by picking and choosing facts to suit your agenda. Saying that the fact it's getting colder in a few places is a counter-argument to global warming is a bit like saying that the fact it gets colder when the sun goes down is also...

Chinny reckon.

Giving someone splinters from an old wooden Westvleteren crate does not count as "weaponry".

Yes, but he was steaming at the time.

Aye. Martin Dickie brewed at Thornbridge before founding BrewDog with James Watt.

Well that article was from 2008 and the predictions are still pretty accurate 11 years on. So, nine years left...
