Yes, it's nothing to do with 'climate change' or reducing CO2, it's all about CONTROL. See what our 'king' is up to: https://news-pravda.com/world/2025/01/13/973220.html It's the WEF calling the shots. They tell Starmer etc what to do and he jumps. They have all been Epsteined so can do nothing else.
OMG Not another bloody conspiracy theory lunatic! That makes at least four of you posting your drivel here.

A madman always believes that it's everyone else who's mad.

If you want to test yourself to see if you're nuts, two of the first signs of madness are watching or listening to the BBC, and reading The Guardian. The next sign is having any hairs growing on the palms of your hands.

If you're still unsure after all that, have a look to see if you have an ebike. If the answer is no, you're nuts. If the answer is yes, have a look to see if it has a crank motor. If the answer is yes, that would explain everything because there's a 99.23% correlation between having a crank-drive bike and being nuts. By deduction, the 0.77% must be those that use them for proper off-road riding, so bear that in mind when analysing your test results.

I'm sorry to disagree with you again, but I think that watching the BBC and reading the Guardian are essential. If you don't know how important opinion formers are thinking, you will very very soon get out of touch.

The danger of living in an echo chamber which just reflects your own views back to you is that you can get sucked into a spiral of mistaken ideas.

I find it essential to operate as a sceptic about absolutely everything. That includes my own beliefs. I regularly examine them carefully. It is very easy to ignore our own biases and just look for sources which reflect back to us our own thinking. I think we need to be aware of that and to be ready to change what we think.

If science had not been designed to do exactly that, where would we be?

If I owned a crank-drive bike I would be offended by your generalisation. Presumably you aren't bothered about offending all those members of the forum who own crank-drive bikes?

You should probably contact your GP about sense of humour failure. They may be able to help you regain your ability to detect those subtle signs that someone is messing with you.

I'm sorry to give you the bad news, but it's looking a lot like a terminal case. Please don't shoot the messenger. I hope we can remain friends.
I respect your contribution here Saneagle, and however we disagree (and we do at times) it would not affect that at all for me. I have a great talent for upsetting people - I know that, so if you can tolerate that - I'm glad.

I seem to recall that your sense of humour failure was triggered by this

Study shows how households can cut energy costs
An experiment in Amsterdam suggests providing better information to people can help move them out of “energy poverty.
"Across the two groups, homes typically reduced monthly consumption of electricity by 33 percent and gas by 42 percent. They lowered their bills by 53 percent, on aggregate, and the percentage of income they spent on energy dropped from 10.1 percent to 5.3 percent.

“The range of energy literacy was quite wide from one home to the next,” Llewellyn says."
