Pob Peth Bach (Masnach teg, Fairtrade)
Reverse five year Kohlkotz famine creation. Dohhh
Population control. Some of ? No food, no agriculture. CO2 is the building block of life. No co2, no plants, no food. All part of the WEF to cut food production, build houses and grow solar pannels, for hordes more people. Completely unsustainable. Wake up, reject 'Bet Zero' nonsense.
“We’re in it together” No we’re not, I am not part of this comunist nonsense. It’s all rubbish.
Which of the earth's thousands of climates are you particularly concerned about in your bit of Wales? But it really doesn't matter, because the "climate crisis" exists only in the minds of people making money from the scam, those relying on continuing the scam for their funding and gullible lefties. Meanwhile, the earth's natural climates continue their normal existence, wholly unaffected by human activity.
its a myth and youve been duped!
Human caused.
Lots of opportunities in Porthcawl for sustained long term action.... Cycle and walk everywhere... Completely achievable Eat two nutritious vegetarian and reduced meat meals a day (less cooking, less energy and time) Assist in your allotments - we have many of them in Porthcawl - Just ask... Grow all your summer salads out of a window box 1m squared... Spend your money in Wales - do you really need to travel across the Globe ? Invest in Solar power - you will get better returns currently than any bank. Fake lawns - throw em out - plant a native species or an apple tree. Green peace have an excellent guide to get you motivated. There was a man who sat under a tree 2600 years ago - possibly the most eco concious without being eco ! Worthy of listening to him.. Write to your council about open spaces - lets plant some trees...
Nobody seems willing to accept or even talk about the absolute root cause of human derived climate change which is human over population. Politicians won't mention it because an increasing population is the easiest way to achieve long-term economic growth, which makes their lives easier. Climate activists seem to believe that stopping oil and coal power stations etc etc, will change things. Unless the world wakes up to the fact that no amount of EV's, solar panels and wind turbines will make any long-term difference if there are too many people, we are heading to destruction. “All our environmental problems become easier to solve with fewer people, and harder - and ultimately impossible - to solve with ever more people.” Sir David Attenborough
