FARTING IS TO BE CRIMINALISED

    Quoting smartasswoman:
    I agree that we're screwed. I'm actually glad that I never managed to have any kids.

    I would say I live a moderately green lifestyle. I don't drive much, and I have a hybrid car. I keep the thermostat turned down. Had an energy audit from our local utility company where they replaced all my light bulbs with LED's and recommended I beef up attic insulation, which I did. I recently saw a chart that showed beef has more than twice the carbon impact of any other meat, so I'm going to stop buying beef (I already was not buying much).

    On the bad side, I live alone in a house that is bigger than what one person needs. I'm guessing at some point I'll downsize into an apartment or condo.
Like you, I'm pleased I have no kids to deal with the climate change mess that is unfolding before our very eyes.

    Quoting HAMONMAN:

    Yes, I agree that COP26 is better than doing nothing and hoping that 'market forces' or some other wishful thinking will provide solutions.

    Call me cynical, but no one wants to address the elephant in the room - the notion of perpetually increasing economic growth, which really means exponential resource consumption, which at some point has to become unsustainable.
    Not sure what would replace that model and that is a problem

    I suspect that at some point in the future that change will be imposed upon the world order, possibly because of the ramifications brought on by increasing climate variability, or even something like a stray asteroid or extreme solar activity damaging our electrified existence.
    In reality it won't be any one factor, but more likely a combination of things that knocks our system into disarray. Rome didn't fall because of any one single event.
    Look at the disruption we already have just from Covid-19.

    I could go on but this is a cheesy, porny hookup site and not really the best venue for such weighty discussion . . . so . . let's get back to whinging about fakes and bots and tits and cocks and shitty IM and blog flooders and cam girls . . .

    And if farting is ever criminalized, then there goes humankind's only universal source of humour which transcends time, culture and language.
Governments' pursuit of economic growth is at the heart of climate change. Hopefully it will pursue something else, like getting rid of the bots on this site!
