Really?

that explains how you have failed spectacularly to answer a single question then!

I would like you to take time to answer the question I posted on page 356 if you get time and why you think subsidies that harm the poor and line the pockets of the rich are a good idea.

You have repeatedly been directed to the CC / MWGW threads, where there is plenty of information available to explain why your position simply doesn't stack up, yet you are conspicuous by your absence!

Unfortunately it appears that, as with most subjects you post on, you have minimal technical understanding and you simply choose to believe the headlines you read in the paper (providing that they tie up with your political prejudices), and are unwilling to actually bother to educate yourself on these topics.
Yep, and I don't want to contribute to either of them because it's full of utter drivel, and anyone with even a hint of scientific background to defend against the attacks of non-science denialist bulls**t was banned long ago. A one-sided debate moderated by people with an agenda is not one I want to contribute to.

Not that I even want to discuss it here, mind. I only am because people have engaged me directly.

Sidney, you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about WRT AGW, so I think you're in no position to tell me I have no understanding. At least my background is actually in science, rather than a banker w**ker.. wink
Science you say... then why not assist the world by devising ways of not releasing carbon into the atmosphere and do good.

Something realistic other than utter drivel of go renewable energies... Why not work out a new way to create cement? That alone is a huge carbon producer.

It's moderately amusing how posters are willing to divert a topic to wherever they please when the diversion suits their agenda, and very quick to complain when it doesn't. hehe
Agreed, so why don't you answer my question about China & India, or do you not understand what I mean, I can try and explain in a different way if it helps?

And so the fiasco that is CamMoreRon continues!

My guessing is that I have a better scientific background than you - what are your qualifications? I thought you did an engineering degree?

And still you resort to offensive insults and name calling. How childish. But it confirms most people's opinion of you - a typical immature individual, plenty of opinions but nothing to back them up.

WTF are you wibbling about, there's an active Climate Politics thread in NP&E which receives informed contributions from all perspectives so ought to be ideal for those like you who have no clue on the science or engineering aspects of climate matters and still believe in various myths. It's hardly a crime.

Those of us who are scientists or engineers or mathematicians/statisticians and informed arts folk too aim to stick to politics as far as possible, though there has to be a mention of science from time to time when politicians get it so wrong by listening to uninformed zealots and parroting complete nonscience.

Unlike the narrow licence of CIF and similar where non-believer posts are deleted and contributors banned for mere heresy against doctrine, moderation isn't about viewpoint as you wrongly allege, just stick to the rules of posting and all will be well. Head on over and post up any of your preferred Green Party myths that haven't already been completely dismantled in this thread.

No you gave the opposite of an answer which what I don't understand?

If you really cared about the planet (I do) you would be obsessing over this far more than what is happening on our little island.

Whilst we are asking for answers, can I have one to how we generate 55GW of electricity and replace 850TWh of gas PA please?

If you don't capitalise the Ws in GW and TWh he'll just rabbit on about that instead.

I too would like an answer to that from our green friend, a very simple yet vital question.

Also is this thing correct: http://www.gridwatch.templar.co.uk/

I believe that he/she/it is just another in a long line of Walter Mitty type's that clog up the arteries of many decent threads with their own overblown self-importance. I don't believe a single word they type, so usually take no notice of the hackneyed crud they write.

As has been mentioned before, cretins like that are screaming out for an 'Ignore' function on here.

Thumbs up/down should be available for every single post on PH, I don't understand compared to some forums why its this basic?

That seems a rather poor consequence of being 'right on', but perhaps not unintended.

He's certainly gone quiet for now, but to be fair he could just be busy tonight - let's see tomorrow if he posts up his impressive 'scientific credentials' or whether he ignores this thread and posts elsewhere...

I would still like to know why he believes that taking money off the poor to give to the rich is a good idea.


It appear that after a few days of trying I will not get an answer from him.

I'm still waiting for the engineering credentials.
