Blackrg is a jewel in the rough
no doubt something very bad is going on with the climate

I used to think it was the carbon thing, caused by humans

Then I saw this documentary



Now Im less sure

Yes, this doco has been criticised

However, when you think about it, the whole carbon credits global warming thing works greatly in the favour of:

the nuclear industry, who get green light for massive new powerstations (UK)

banks - who get to trade some new (carbon) futures (EU)

the military/high tech sector, who get state handouts for research (USA)

scientists, who get funding for any research as long as it includes the word 'carbon'

local politicians who need excuses to increase taxes (LONDON)

radical greens, who have no agenda unless the planet is on the brink of disaster (All Over)

I think Peak oil is much much more of a worry in terms of effects on society

Interesting story here - is loss of sea ice in antarctic because of volcanic activity>? Antarctic’s PIG Threatening Sea Levels at ‘Somerset’ Bob’s Place
