BST, What is patently obvious is that you only deal in jaundiced, snide anti-government observations. You only deal in stories that tell of government failures because they are most probably the only stories you search for or at least only report on.
Climate change wasn't it?Globally this was the hottest July ever recorded. The hottest of the warmest month of the year modern humanity has experienced.Burn baby burn.

Depressingly, the politicians and newspapers that brought you Brexit and the anti-lockdown arguments are now setting themselves to oppose net zero carbon. This is their next Culture War battlefield. They would literally prefer the planet to burn than miss a chance to bait the Left.

I thought we were having another really warm summer. I've been in t-shirts and shorts for weeks.What is noticeable to me is the grey days are warm, between 65 and 75°F. I remember summers when overcast skies meant there could be a chill in the air, even in July. That doesn't happen anymore.
Speaking from experience a WUM should never change his handle,you need to be recognised like what I am.
Food for thought?Total fuel consumption of U.S. airlines is approximately 19 billion gallons annually.Total fuel consumption for mining Ore for construction of electric car batteries is approximately 21 billion gallons annually.The 21 billion gallons of fuel burned can only produce enough Ore to build 250,000 electric car batteries. The lifespan of an electric battery is 10 years and is not renewable. By 2050 these batteries will fill landfills with 50 million pounds of waste that does not break down.

I'm still waiting for people's thoughts on little kids being used mining in Congo for cobalt.https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/jan/03/child-labour-toxic-leaks-the-price-we-could-pay-for-a-greener-future
