A late friend of mine used to enjoy jetting round the world to speak at conferences. When he retired he no longer needed to travel and suddenly became deeply concerned about the environmental impact of air travel.

If you didn't want to start an argument, Derek, you could have just STFU.


Back on topic, JSO know that their activities are not raising awareness of the causes and effects of climate change, and that their only tangible result has been to get people annoyed at them.

And they know it because they commissioned a survey to find out how effective their protests had been, and that's what it said.

Here it is

Wow. So the most significant outcome of all the protests and disruption is 'we didn't piss people off as much as might have been expected'.

I've long seen the majority of the JSO brigade as middle class self righteous tts with too much time on their hands.

The actual result is that they are totally irrelevant and they have the survey and polling to prove it.
Quite why they have published it would be a better question. I guess there must be some people who will read it and think yes I have to join a pointless organisation and get myself a criminal record, lose my job and possibly go to prison.

The positive spin the report tries to put on the data is something to behold.

What effect has their actions had on the rest of the population? I'm sure in the eyes of many they'd be better sitting soporifically in a quiet house fulfilling the cultural obligation of being an old person, keeping on sipping the state sponsored Kool-Aid and regurgitating it incessantly without ever engaging their brains....

Because that's what 'old people' do if they're not vandalising things.

Once again old people are showing those wet behind the ears how it is done.

Yeah. Wish I had the committment to tap at some glass whilst wearing a t-shirt with a slogan on it.

Apologies. Where might I find the script for the required group think here?

You've got your script. You're just in the wrong theatre.
