    What this poll shows is the irresistable urge by techies to pontificate on matters of which they know nothing.
    Hard Brexit now!

        Definitely a myth. My proof: Tony Blair say's it's true. Further proof if at all needed: Gordon Brown is using it as an excuse to raise taxes.
        Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.
        threadeds website, and here's my blog.

                Don’t get me started on this one – this is complete and utter diatribe!

                I have studied weather and climate change for a number of years

                I think that there should be a public enquiry about the amount of MetOffice /Hadley Centre funding given by this government from our taxes to dig up CO2 related climate change that directly benefits the coffers of this government through new climate change taxation! It is a clear conflict of interest and quite wrong IMO.

                Its not global warming....the Met Office are very careful not to say that because some parts of the world have been colder. Its just the UK. South Africa has experienced some record breaking cold this year and snow in Johannesburg.

                Also we had the same old diatribe about drought when it was only a tiny region of central southern England that was affected for a few months, it wasn't severe. They only mentioned the parts that sold the same old boring warming stories. In my region we have had a wetter year than for a decade and we had the wettest May across the whole of southern England as I predicted would be the case with 200% of monthly rain in many parts. We also had a really crap August with more than the usual amount of rain, cloud and cool weather. The winter was colder than in recent years and the Spring was cold ...but as usual they didn't mention any of that because again it didn't fit their story of selling warming fears so that we can all pay more tax to the government and then the Hadley Centre and Met Office get more cash to do the same old stuff all over again.

                Overall totally rigged with one aim to sell environment taxes for the government who pays their wages.

                For example who if any one is not going to change there mind by not travel by air now that GB had plunked £5 on each and every air fair – no one - it is a stealth tax.

                Having said that, I did not personally see a Tornado in 2006 or indeed Hurricane.

                    I refer you to this thread and the wiki link I have posted there:

                    http://forums.contractoruk.com/threadnav12893-1-10.html

                    I am agnostic on the issue and will keep an open mind until I have understood more and reviewed the evidence for both sides. However I know from experience that this forum is not the place for reasoned debate, as most people have a hidden agenda

                    It is my understanding that the scientific consensus is that human beings are contributing to global warming by their activities. Perhaps I am wrong.
