Why do you all not also target ITN, Channel 4, Sky and all the other media outlets who also report on rising greenhouse gas emissions and a possible runaway greenhouse effect that has made our twin or sister planet uninhabitable? See Wikipedia on venus (hotter than mercury although it is further away from the sun than mercury).
Please argue your case to prove I am, thankfully, very wrong in thinking that we are all living unnaturally on a natural planet and infinitely on a finite planet.
You do believe we can go on, forever, burning up our one-off geological inheritance as if there is no tomorrow, don't you?
And we can discount the poorer nations and carry on living it up today and to hell with tomorrow, for tomorrow we die, too? Never mind the grandchildren. All that matters is us, here and now.
Please go on telling me that you are right, as always and I am wrong, as always.
CORRECTION
I meant mercury (nearest to the sun, yet cooler than venus with its runaway greenhouse effect, so we are told) and NOT mars! Thanks for telling me.
Something about positive feedback loops giving a runaway greenhouse effect there and here? Some scientists seem to think that is a possibility. What do you think?
Better just to disappear under the bedclothes, keep our fingers crossed and carry on regardless! And, I've been wrong for 40 years, too. Don't listen to me! Tim W
