This weather has been pissing me off. So for the past two days I have been checking my seaweed and watching our rotary clothes line attempting to enter orbit, and I can now confirm our suspicions, that GLOBAL WARMING IS ALL BOLLOX.

The startling results of my tests indicate that the Gulf Stream is going into reverse with the result that the UK is racing headlong into a new ICE AGE.

This will have the following CATASTROPHIC effects:

The Arctic ice sheet will move south and stop at Hadrians Wall. Scotland will be buried by a sheet of ice 37 metres thick. England will be buried by Sweaties.

Each day the weather will consist of wind rain hail wind sleet snow rain and wind. On rare occasions we may catch a fleeting glimpse of the sun. Patio tables, mini-skirts and barbecues will become obsolete. Summer temperatures will average 10.5. All trees will be flattened by the wind.

All land in England north of the river Thames will remain frozen (permafrost). This will mean that all football clubs in that area will have to shut down and the south coast will become the new soccer heartland.

People suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), like me, will slit their wrists in their thousands, but will be replaced by immigrants from Uzbekistan and French Polynesia.

Sea level will fall by 10 metres, joining the UK to mainland Europe again.

There will, however be some ADVANTAGES to our new climate:

Scotland will be buried by a sheet of ice 37 feet thick.

There will be a cull of chavs because the land cannot support such a large population.

There will be a cull of Sweaties because the land cannot support such a large population

We will be able to walk or cycle to France to stock up on our Somalian red wine

The south coast will become the world’s football powerhouse. Northern monkeys will be wearing Brighton Portsmouth and Southampton shirts.

Brighton and Hove Albion will build a 110,000 all-stander stadium on the new land near the Palace pier and will become the greatest club side in the world winning the Champions League every year.

Blackpool and Grimsby will no longer exist. :clap2:

The orange chairman of Crystal Palace FC will die due to lack of sunshine and nobody else will be arsed to take over. The club will fold.

YOU MAY BE ABLE TO OFFER MORE IDEAS AS TO HOW THE UK WILL BE AFFECTED.

I did this in GCSE geography (back in 2000) so it isn't new news.

The UK is at the same latitude as Russia, Canada and other places that are much colder than us - it is the Gulfstream that keeps us warm. The theory is that melting of ice caps (caused by golbal warming) will reduce the level of salt in the sea, slowing the Gulf stream and helnce making Britain a lot ruddy colder from what I can remember.

It gives me the shivers just thinking about it, I'm off to make a nice warm cuppa tea.

Or go back to the 60s and the theory was that we should beware of "Global Cooling".

Can't believe this thread was ignored at the time! Surely now it needs some consideration?:wave:

Notters, I am forever in your debt for rescuing this long-forgotten and outrageously ignored thread. :bowdown: So how did you come to rescue it now?

Anyway, as I told you all, it has started! Global warming has officially gone into reverse and the ice is coming! Sweaties, get prepared for your move south! :lolol:

Remember seeing a programme about this a couple of years ago, Thames frozen up etc.

Trouble is, the scientists really haven't a clue which way it will go have they?

Quite true, tree hugers have yet to explain what tips a warming climate into an ice age.

Same old guff, great sky monkey angry, make weather go bad, punish evil man.

Global warming has always been a myth. Global Climate Change is what is happening now and has for ever been so. How arrogant of mankind to think that his puny life on this planet will change the forces of nature. The earth, the solar system is in control not mankind and don't believe all that Al Gore says.

Funny you should say that. Actually, yes they have. This is exactly what's been predicted.

"Global warming" is an unfortunate name for it, used because the average temperature will increase. "Climate Change" is the correct name, and more accurate in the literal sense, for what we're doing to the planet.

As said above, the melting of the ice caps (warming, see?) is going to stop the Gulf Stream. Winters like the one we're in the middle of won't be normal; this will be bloody mild compared to what we'll be experiencing soon.

Those of you complaining about a lack of actual "global warming" don't need to worry though - south of here people will still be starving to death due to the 4 degree increases...

Anyone suggesting that this is evidence the scientists were wrong are simply... well, wrong.

You beat me to it DTES.

Some people (not necessarily those that posted on here) will be happy to ignore relevant research results if it means they have to chnage their lifestyle and make an extra effort to walk instead of drive or recycle instead of throwing things straight in the bin.

I'm very happy to recycle cos there's no way we can keep burying our rubbish and expect to get away with it.

There's no f***ing way i'm walking anywhere though!

OK, let's assume that our climate is going to be like, say, Canada. Freezing winters and warm/hot summers.

What would happen to our footie? I suppose it becomes a summer game with a winter break as (I think) in Scandinavia and Russia?

And would CRICKET even survive? :shrug:

Walked past a neighbour on my way to buy my paper on Sunday morning - he said in a serious tone "thank christ for global warming - it would be really cold but for that". Had to laugh! :D

And this is why people like me dont take it seriously.

firstly Recycling, although a good thing, has nothing to do with Climate change.

Secondly why should I change my lifestyle when its obvious that you dont have a proper grasp of the issues?

What you are advocating is rationing, based on the false idea that its a consumption based problem rather than on based on the production of energy.

If I have one cup of coffee in the morning instead of 3 its still going to polute with dirty energy wereas with clean energy the issue becomes irrelevant.

The truth is there is tons of clean energy to be had from Geothermal, nuclear Fussion, not fission and hydro-electric alone.

f*** your poxy windmills and dumb solar panals, I refuse to live like a puritan because we have idiots in charge of energy and environmental policy.

Dont lecture me on changing my lifestyle to cover for the incompetence of you, or your environmentalist chums, youve got to get your shit together.


Btw

You do realise that when the yanks start taking this seriously they are going to want TONS of energy and they are going to blow your greenie-commie Euro-energy programme out of the water on a cost basis alone?

Correct. I don't think anyone can argue with that.
