Not debating whether it's real or not... But the UK has seen some of the coldest, wettest July/Augusts on record. We are going to have 5 or so nice days in September and the BBC couldn't get anymore excited about telling us we are all going to die.
I particularly like the "well July might have been a bit wet BUT JUNE WAS SO HOT CLIMATE CHANGE CLIMATE CHANGE" bit

Tired of it.
It's the new covid.Quote:

I'm all for looking after the planet but even if it did warm slightly (I actually think it'll go the other way), wouldn't that be nice? Cold kills far more than heat does.
I don't want to have an electric car PSRB :-(Quote:

They weigh 2+ tons!! Rip through tyres and **** up the roads, not to mention the resources required to build and then dispose of them. Quite happy with the internal combustion engineQuote:

The only bit that's melting is under a belt of recently discovered volcanoes.Quote:

He's quite the Tesla enthusiast, isn't he? Musk's marketing department should be paying him by the letter for all those Linkedin posts of his.Quote:

One of them is also on the Parish Council. :shudder:
Well, the latest Volkswagen group infotainment system software has been absolutely shocking tbhQuote:

I prefer less tech now. I had so many gadgets on the Mercedes it was annoying. car going mental with the active lane assist on. Especially on the M25 where there are so many random lines everywhere it confuses the sh..... sheer life out of it.Quote:
