Personally madtosh, I've little time for Climate Camp protesters. They are in the same wacky mold as CND Greenham Common people/lefty bandwagon. Climate change is just another in the mix mantra to shout. They are more excited about confrontation of direct action, than pragmatic solutions to energy crisis and climate threats. I was surprised to see Authur Scargill. God who digs these coffins up? Just the flip side of the same loony left coin, one side reddish brown, one reddish green.
Police are way over the top and wasting public cash. If the police scaled down to to a dog watch and media turned back to their sleepy silly season, climate campers could enjoy their cheap holiday, we all could ignore them and watch the olympics, do the blue bin recycling or have a BBQ.
Most people accept there is a climate change crisis looming, resulting from people's fossil fuel use. Northwood is an unwise form of power generation without CCT, or using any British coal. Most sensible folk reajust, energy conservation, recycling, minimising car use and campaign sensibly through MPs etc.
However, Carbon junkies in the Climate Camp folk as using direct action for their own existance and self importance. They are a different mindset.
BrownLabour haven't got a grip of anything.
Harvs, this the logic and mass research of 98% of scientific opinion. Madtosh, me things you're as rare as a winter swallow on the man enhanced global warming issue. Madtosh listens to the 2% oil company bribed wackies and dodgy books.
However, I'm against Climate Camps loonies as its acheives little but irritates the public with the attention and police involvement. It's stating and indulging in the obvious. They have their own back to the cave's/teepee agenda. Northwood station is fine if it has Carbon Capture; not if it does. As it doesn't currently; it shouldn't be allowed to go ahead on balance!
