    I just watched the programme with David Attenborough.

    I see there are global tipping points that will be actioned in the near future if we don’t act. I really do doubt that the world as a collective can drop fossil fuels.

    We had a wake-up call that was brought to our attention 30 years ago - global warming.

    If I’m lucky I may be around in 30 years, I wonder what state the planet will be at that point. I really do hope my direct descendents will be okay!

    An immediate action the Government could take is to ban the import of Palm Oil in all forms.

    And I am seriously contemplating arrest as this moves forward

    I go my Girls to watch this tonight to attempt to make the connection to turn lights out and the heating down or off

    And to not waste food

    We wont get flooded were we are windmills above us but that will become cold or warm comfort as this plays out

    Its another good reason to cooperate with our trading partners

    Apparently the Heathrow demonstrators have all packed-up and gone home at around 10am! Not that there were many who answered Boardman-Pattison's 'call to arms', there being less than two dozen all in all, none of whom were adults.


    Boardman-Pattison is one of the organisers and he flounced-out of a Sky News interview because he didn't like the line of questioning - such a snowflake! Even though he arranged this demo, he didn't even bother showing up! He 'demands' that the citizenry not be permitted to take flights except in extreme emergencies yet his Instagram account is full of selfies taken in exotic locations around the world. And that long-time Green campaigner, Emma Thompson, flew 5,400 miles from her Hollywood home to London just so she could take part in yesterday's events.

    How come these eco-warriors are not demonstrating outside the Chinese Embassy to protest about the world's greatest polluter rather than cause mass disruption to London and Londoners whose country is one of the least polluters? They've caused millions of Pounds worth of damage and lost countless people their jobs.

    generally speaking--protesters arent too good at getting up in the morning.

    £17,500 a year to educate him in private school and he becomes a "poet" what a waste of space Boardman-pattison is :lol: I bet his dad's cringing every time he appears on the news.

    Still maintaining that the "Boardman-Pattison flounces off Sky News interview" is a false news story?

    There's a protester in there, somewhere ... bit like "spot the ball" ! :lol:
    They're now claiming it as an "emotional disruption" but the only emotional people are:

    'Climate Change: The Facts' Was the BBC's Biggest Lie Ever

    The increasingly unwatchable and slavishly woke BBC plumbed new depths last night. It gave a prime time slot to a piece of environmental propaganda so blatant, shameless, and dishonest it might just as well have been a political broadcast on behalf of Extinction Rebellion.

    Even the programme’s title was a lie.

    Climate Change: The Facts was a farrago of alarmist cliches, exaggerations, and untruths which have been debunked on numerous occasions.

    It lied about the cause of wildfires; it lied about heatwaves; it lied about storms and floods; it lied about polar melting; it lied about sea levels; it lied about coral reefs; it lied about droughts.

    Yet many viewers may well have been taken in because the programme was presented with breathy earnestness and apparent authority by the doyen of TV wildlife ‘experts’ Sir David Attenborough. And accompanied by the kind of dramatic footage and stirring music guaranteed to bypass the brain and appeal directly to the emotions — as all the most effective propaganda does.

    Breitbart? I'd look for another source if I was going to debunk the show (I have not watched the show and have got no horse in this race).

    The last paragraph of the Breitbart article was...interesting?

    It lost all credibility there and showed itself just to be a self serving rant. Of all the 92 year old men in the world to slag off, David Attenborough is right at the back of the queue. He's been part of the childhood of virtual every British person alive today.
