Global Warming

Might as well jump on the bandwagon.    After all,  according to some (including El Trumpo of the USA), just fake news designed to upset the general populas.   So the USA has 5% of the World population and produces 25% of the carbon pollution and as non believers have pulled out of the International treaty on pollution control, while small nations like ourselves are attempting to do everything possible to reverse global warming, the term "p***ing against the wind" comes to mind. With incredible hurricanes, record heatwaves, forest fires, melting icecaps and rising sea levels  -  as old Jones in Dad's Army would say "Don't panic , don't panic".   What a legacy we are leaving future generations.    I spotted a small item in the paper a few weeks ago about some islands on the north coast of Russia which are now being mapped as they have appeared since their ice covering has gone.
 I missed the item on the news tonight but there are concerns that tonnage of recycling waste appears to be falling, so does that mean that despite all the publicity,there is still public apathy, and folks losing interest.   Just wait and see what happens when our respective governments implement the cash deposit and return scheme for drinks cans and bottles, tonnage of high value items will fall for one thing, then there will be a real hoo haa in shops , bars, etc when people want their 20 p deposit back.  Next thing, we will be having our recycling bins raided at night, bairns will be tipping up at the corner shop with sack loads of coke cans,  I am sure the shop keepers with be anything but amused!!

Obviously lots more on this topic,  maybe another time.
