    UK Climate Change ad

    What do you think of this ad:
    [youtube:1b0ereu1]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzjOcOcQ90U[/youtube:1b0ereu1]

    I think it explains the issues better than the Irish one and conveys a sense of urgency.

    Utter propaganda. Proove to me that climate change is happening.

    Don't quote me figures or tell me that ice is melting. That has always happened. Show me how people are causing it.

    Right on, all this bull is only an excuse to tax us to the grave. example, in the 2007 Irish budget diesel cars are to be reduced in price to promote "Green Issues"!!, from that faithful day to this diesel prices have risen daily.

    No, I want you to take me by the hand, lead me up to a polar bear and have him tell me that it is humanity's fault that he is sunbathing. You can quote as many sites as you like, but not one offers conclusive evidence. I'm sorry sir, but you are wrong. And furthermore, if you won't even spend some time going through it with me, you obviously don't care that much.

    Bobert, might one suggest a weeny peek at the ever rising prices at the petrol pump?? If you don't believe in climate change, might I suggest a damascene conversion to sources of alternative energy anyway...BECAUSE THE FOSSIL FUELS ARE RUNNING OUT. The taxes may just be useful in sorting out out some alternative energy...before it is too darn late.
    My own belief is that climate change is real, but governments are sensationalizing this and downplaying the scarcity issue, because they want to give us all the illusion that this is all a choice, not a necessity, they don't want panic. It isn't working, they'd be better off coming out and stating the problem straight, then we'd maybe have half a chance of getting a critical mass behind fixing it.

    The ad is very good... simplistic enough to be easily understood by everyone
    The floggings will continue until morale improves

    OH. MY. GOD! Fossel Fuels are running out? No way! Off course they are. Hence the upward travelling of prices! Supply and demand and all that. And I think you'll find BMW are investing heavily into renewable sources of fuel...

    At this stage, the train has left the station. If you're not on board you'd better catch up. If you're not scientifically literate,
    Don't quote me figures
    ,then that's your problem.

    Show me how people are causing it. then I'll consider believing it. But here's something for you... there have been several ice ages in the past you know.
