Cleverest children 'grow up to be Green'

THE brightest children go on to vote Liberal Democrat or Green, according to a survey.

The study by Edinburgh University researchers has found that childhood intelligence is linked to voting preferences and political involvement in adulthood.

The study – which looked at voting patterns in the 2001 general election – found that those with higher IQ ratings were more likely to vote Lib-Dem or Green in an election.

The survey – including cognitive tests at ages five and ten – was followed up with a study of voting habits at 34. Those who voted Green had an average IQ of 108.3, with Lib-Dem voters just behind at 108.2.

Conservative and Labour voters were further behind – with scores of 103.7 and 103.0 respectively, while voters for Welsh nationalist Plaid Cymru scored an average of 102.5. Scottish National Party voters had an average IQ of 102.2. The research also showed that British National Party voters had the lowest average intelligence – scoring just 98.4. Non-voters were found to have an average IQ of 99.7.

I fail to see the point. You seem not to be able to tell the difference between the weather and the climate.

I'll grant you that there's a degree of poetic irony about it snowing during a debate on warming - but it's nothing more than that.

As for it being a scam, there's a number of obvious questions that present themselves. I'll ask just one here: cui bono?

This is a normal post Yes. That's it.
They invented global warming, convinced lawmakers all over the world, infiltrated the IPCC, and altered the laws of chemistry as they've been understood for the past couple of centuries.


Really? If they were that clever, wouldn't they have been able to hit on a simpler way of making a fortune?

Carbon trading has been proposed as a possible means of doing something about a recognised problem by privatising a public cost. It places an economic value on the environment, and thereby helps solve a problem of market failure.

It is not, as far as I can see, part of a conspiracy. If you have evidence to the contrary, please do say. I'm not going to hold my breath.

This is a normal post CO2 is an essential requirement for flora
Plants lock up CO2 so reducing CO2 levels will reduce the ability of plants to grow. The plan for large mirrors in space to reduce the solar energy reaching earth will only slow down plants photosynthesis and therefore will not reduce CO2 levels
A good sink of CO2 is timber yet forests are being cut down and burnt worldwide. Britain was once @90% woodland but now its only @12%
(, Mon 3 Nov 2008, 15:46, Reply)
This is a normal post ...
Reducing CO2 levels too far might be a bad idea - some greenhouse effect is a necessary criterion of there being any life on Earth at all - but that's not an argument against trying to keep them in the 300-450ppm range.

It's also the case, though, that we're emitting CO2 at a rate that would be impossible to counterbalance by reforestation, and that global warming (in the short term, at least) is likely to cause more plant deaths than growth owing to increased forest fires and so on.

Beyond that, cheers for pointing out the blindingly obvious.

Right: home time!
