Some Numpty in the UN said:

People should consider eating less meat as a way of combating global warming, says the UN's top climate scientist.

Rajendra Pachauri, who chairs the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), will make the call at a speech in London on Monday evening.

UN figures suggest that meat production puts more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than transport.

Seriously, if its not those crazy tree-hugging hippies, or some twonk who believes every piece of thought up tripe the government try preaching us, it HAS to be some overpaid nonce in the UN trying to stir things up...

Ahwell, off to the butchers for tea I reckon!

Yup. It's been said before, by myself and others.

Fox hunting, then smoking. Next will be drinking alcohol and eating meat. There is no limit to what people will make someone else give up for "their own good", especially if they are feeling pretty smug about having done so themselves.

And, fk me, look at that beard! Only in the IPCC!

I shouldn't say this, but

Meat Tax anyone?

Noticed today my packet of crisps showed their "Carbon Footprint". Have the hippies not given up yet? How many more wet summers before they STFU?

There's an old saying just thought up by me; "if you can't pronounce their name, they're not worth the time".

and, Dr Thingywatsit falls beautifully into that catergory

Ridiculous crap like this makes me want to start eating meat again.

So eating meat might warm this damn place up a bit? Excellent, I feel proudly patriotic for grilling that steak earlier on

So we can eat meat because cows fart ad produce methane.Now if we all eat beans and lentils we all fart instead. We're doomed!
