It's just that there's a hole in this argument big enough to drive a Hummer through because of an assumption I didn't realize I had (isn't that just the way with assumptions. . .), and the argument has been UPDATED to address this hole."

This is a normal post He turns into a whiny pussy.
He also approaches the story a little too dogmatically for my liking.

His very valid argument will be disregarded by people that don't agree with him, so it turns into a video that preaches to the converted rather than helping anything.

If people think they've helped out by forwarding a youtube video, they won't feel as guilty about the amount of electricity, food or water they've used up every day.

If they got out and devoted some time to their local community (ask the council if there's a vacant lot that could be turned into a park, or a park that could have some work done on it, they're happy to get volunteers for all sorts of things), they might actually cause a bit of change.

"Spreading the word" is something that happenned in the 80s. If we're still pretending that all you have to do is throw a big concert and remind everyone that they're wasting resources, we're never going to get anywhere.

All you have to do is help out a bit. The more people that want to plant trees and have nature strips, the more it will be an issue to local council members. That's how things actually get changed. You have to start first, then the government will follow.

This is a normal post Right, that makes more sense,
because I reckon even if every city in England covered every available square inch with foliage it wouldn't make much of a dent in our CO2 output.
What I find interesting is that earlier you said that people wouldn't listen to this video if it disagreed with their own ideas. I guess that's probably been proven true by yourself - even though you say some positive things about the video, you also say "fuck global warming" and actually care much more about having trees around. Which means, all his arguments in the second video about global warming being more important than other concerns fell on deaf ears with you. Sadly you're one of the most positive responders to this guy.

This is a normal post Fully agree with the gist of his conclusion.
However, he's a slimy prick and no mistake. Plus I detest his logically and philosophically flawed method, and his horrifically condescending delivery. The Pascal's Wager model he uses is predetermined, over-simplified and factually assumptive.

Moreover, this video depressingly implies that a meaningless gambling diagram will be more effective at persuading us to act than the horrible, plainly visible reality of WHAT WE'RE ALREADY ACTUALLY DOING. If that's the case, then I think it's safe to say the environment's fate is sealed.

(I also hate the fact that he does the irritating Dana Scully thing of supergluing his top and bottom front teeth together in the morning, then attempting to talk normally for the rest of the day hoping nobody notices. But i suppose that's slightly off-topic.)

As a final gripe, he should be using a chalkboard (as opposed to a big slab of plastic and a toxic, non-degradeable marker) if he wants to appear more convincing. Steampunk FTW! ;D

All he has actually done is demonstrate the precautionary principle. If you ignore the rational factual components of any dilemma, as this whiney twat has, you are left with no other rational choice other than to be blindly cautious. To this effect his argument has no greater validity than eclectically adopting the practices of all religions to cover your bets. Despite this obvious point, most people who view it will unquestioningly accept his assumptions, subsequently berating me to change my behavior in spite of their stupidity.

This is a normal post He kind of addresses your point in the second video
in that he looks at the likelihood of global climate catastrophy. He actually argues that it seems more likely than not, but I wouldn't agree with him.
There's plenty of politics and agendas throughout the scientific world. Even if we could agree that there was a scientific consensus that climate change was very likely to happen, I'm not sure if I would put entirely that much stock in it.
The reason for this is that, even if the best climate models give high probabilities of disaster, by definition, they are predicting things outside of their normal range of use.
That said, even if you think the likelihood is as low as 10%, it'd still be well worth spending a few billion on sorting it out.

Give up our cars and stop doing anything ever? I need to work to earn money so I can live. Which means I need fuel, electricity. I need to use a computer which I;ve been told is bad for the environment. I've even started getting emailed adverts to use eco-coffins should I die! If we do everything we're guilt tripped into the economy will collapse and we pretty much fucked anyway.

Tell me - what the crap do I do so you greeny meanies will leave me alone and let me get on with my live? And no, I'm not going to start paying 5 times the price for 'Ecover' washing up liquid. Bugger off.

This is a normal post That last sentence
exactly encompasses how obsessed people are with money. We live in such a materialistic society that it's now paramount to earn as much money as possible when it's perfectly enjoyable to live off just enough (I'm doing that at the moment!)

Obviously, don't throw out your car if you need it for work. But if everyone contributes slightly (e.g. recycling, composting, driving your car a little less) then it has a big effect. Simple.

This is a normal post I know your right.
But its more than that. I'm made to feel that I'm evil because I don't live in a tree and survive off my own farts.

It seems that every company is suddenly 'green' - banks, clothes, the lot. And its all bollocks. I'm sure there are some companies that mean it but to me its one massive bandwagon and I'm bored of it.

I love my car - I NEED me car - I'm not driving a shitting Pirus or a VW van (which emit 12 times more CO2 than a 325 BMW by the way)

EDIT - Also I like to try to earn as much as possible - Not greedy, I just kind of see money as an indicator of how well I'm doing career wise. Thats not to say I see people who don't earn much as losers just I hope to be one of the best at what I do. I'll probably give most of the money away.

This is a normal post That's one of the big problems about global warming arguments!
The "fight global warming" people are often lumped in with environmentalists. And the agendas get confused. Someone might say "we need to do XYZ for global warming" but actually the global warming is an excuse, with the justification that XYZ is good for the environment anyway.
This kind of dilutes the global warming thing. If global warming is as serious as we are lead to believe, then it's way more important than the usual environmental issues of potential damage to plant and animal life. (Since it's actually potentially damage to us.)
Also, the solutions given by environmentalists are, well, the sort of things they encourage anyway. Like giving up cars and stuff, other things we like having. More realistic solutions would be things like - industrial CO2 sequestration, more nuclear power stations, diverting some of the funds used to collect oil (e.g. Iraq war fund) to improving the most realistic alternative energy sources.

This is a link post untalkative bunny.
the compo got me thinking of great but unappreciated children's shows. untalkative bunny is very high on my list of great tv - weird, not particularly for kids, but certainly what i would have watched when i was young.

there are a ton of episodes on youtube, as well. i believe they are well worth your time. first up: eating with manners.

enjoy!

This is a link post Alan McKim
A mate of mine, Alan McKim, has just signed his first music publishing deal and is now recording his first album.

Alan did it the hard way, the proper way. Gigging anywhere he could get a spot, often for free, just so he could play his songs to people. He didn't just hang out on MySpace whining that no-one was listening to him, he got out there and put his time in on the road.

He's going to be a star and I'm proud to say that he's a mate.

Good on yer Alan.

Cheers

This is a normal post Actually
I agree about the appearence thing. Then I saw him live and it really doesn't matter. He puts so much passion into his act that it sends shivers up your back. He gigs mainly around Glasgow but he's in London once a month. The Fox in Hanwell if anyone's interested.

As for the lyrics. Sorry about that - he's a porridge wog from Glasgow.

Cheers

This is a normal post I've seen him a couple of times
I know the family that runs the Fox (and the Ailsa in St Margarets).

He is very good - his voice reminds me of Ray La Montagne (or whatever he's called). And yes - he does get very into the music when he's performing.

I heard that he's broken his ankle a couple of times from over-enthusiastic stomping in the middle of a performance.

(BTW - coincidentally, the landlord at the Ailsa lost his phone the other day, so he lost all the numbers of musicians he hires on a regular basis. So unless he's in touch with the people at the Fox already - he might want to contact Marek and let him have his number again)

This is a normal post Get In Touch With
Scotty - Fox regular.

Or, of course, Colin the kinda landlord.If he's still alive. Only been away for three months but, with Colin, you never know.

Scotty picked him up from hospital after heart surgery and, the first thing Colin did, on getting back to the Fox was pull himself a pint and then proceeded to get totally wankered....

And if you see Queever and her fella (from the Ailsa) say hi from me. Last I heard they'd moved to Eire.

Cheers

This is a normal post Do you mean CC?
Colin Chalmers? Duncan's dad (Duncan being Caoimhe's boyfriend - and yes, that's how you spell queever... go figure)

CC's fine, saw him only the other day in fact.

Duncan and Caoimhe come over every now and again (you're right - they moved to Ireland), I'll say hi next time i see him, but who do I say hi from? Does he know you as legless? (I fear that nickname may apply to a lot of his customers)

This is a normal post It's nice to see that you're making the effort to post original work on the links board.
Once you've posted it though, don't repost it unless it's relevant to somebody else's thread.
