Climate Change.

Our climate changes constantly. The Romans grew grapes as far north as Scotland.
Between the 17th and 19th centuries, there were frost fairs held ON THE RIVER THAMES.
AS a child in the 50s the pollution from: buses, trains, diesel lorries, steelworks, factories, cars, all added to the belching smoke from coal fires from every house, made everywhere in the UK pretty foul.
A friend reminded me of this last night.

The air has never been cleaner - with the possible exception of  China - a nation happy to use coal as it tries to achieve levels of pollution unequalled anywhere in half a century.

The millions of extra vehicles on our roads today make a fraction of the pollution that the relatively tiny numbers made in the 1950s.

If climate change is man-made, then surely it has to be a kickback from seventy years ago.

Carbon dioxide is often blamed - but the scientific case is weak.

Why has sunspot activity been removed from the equation?

Never forget that in a single eruption, Krakatoa in 1883 produced more pollution than Man has achieved in all of recorded history.

Hosts of respected scientists promised us a new ice age. I remember reading the many articles from the better newspapers when I was at university in the 1970s!

Somehow, I think that we are being taken for a ride.
Proof? - That is easy. When discussion is banned from the BBC and similar; when dissenters are shouted down and ridiculed without being allowed to make a case - please pardon my suspicions.

Shame on YOU, Channel 4!
