When the planet is burning from our vast burning of finite fossil fuels, should we give top priority to tram extensions or trains/stations reinstated or, something else?

When the authorities in 2019 declared a climate emergency, should they be spending an increase of 45% to £650 m for 9 Kms to build trams on the built but unused section of the 120 Kms Black Country Railway or, turn it into a road or something else?

When we are told that there is an obesity epidemic, should we continue with business as usual or support Henry Dimbleby in promoting his recommendations for lower carbon-impact eating and healthier food?

When vast parts of the planet are both burning and flooding from our human climate-induced, on top of natural changes, should we continue to destroy buildings and transport infrastructure to then have to rebuild them or, insulate them to save burning fossil fuels?

Humanitarian aid or ecocidal armaments to promote war around the world or much more of both?

When a hazardous orange haze from out-of-control forest fires in Quebec extends down the E side of the USA, meaning high-grade face masks must be used - should we do more active travel or oil-based travel?

Solar power in our homes or gas heating and cooking?
