The G summits are not environmental summits either.

What I want is for the leaders of the world to invest their nations money in sustainable energy and electric cars (though biofuels can fuck off because they will starve the world's poorest nations and kill the last rainforests just for the west's cars), cancel debt for the poorest counties (which mainly exists due to our selling them weapons and their corrupt leaders defaulting on payment) and work together in the UN to protect countries from being picked on who are of little "value" to us (eg, Western Sahara being under siege from Morocco for 30 years)
So what I'm going to do is sit on my arse in front of my computer until these leaders notice I'm sulky and annoyed, and fucking well do something about it!

too many disparate aims ultimately flawed, though? It makes it hard for anyone to sum up what the protest is about. Is it about green issues? Poverty? Human rights? It just becomes a left protest against the right.
Because of this, such protests always seem to be sabotaged by smaller political parties. I saw an anti-nazi one when the BNP were in Leeds. If you wanted to be on that march, you'd be stood under a lots of logos for far left groups which I also wouldn't agree with their policies.
I agree that it's better to do something, but sometimes think that lots of lone voices are better than a mob.

I wonder if the reason that population explosion is hardly mentioned (even though it's necessary as part of a solution for all these issues) is that it's a not a left/right thing. Everyone should have less kids, which would involve a personal sacrifice for many people who'd want more than one, including many green protesters.

is electric cars. First, you have to dig up the entire country, every road and car park, to install wiring that could cope with the extra demand. Then you need to install charging points, at a cost of... That would take years, by which time we might have found some better way. You then need every precious metal on the planet for all the electronics and batteries, (which are hard to recycle). Oh, and 2,000 new power stations to charge all the cars.
It is a VERY silly idea.

Like it, soldier. It's a robust plan.
We'd need more electricity, fine. We can build more power stations. Those power stations will, initially, use the same fuel as the cars, but eventually we go over to wind power, wave power and, when they finally perfect it, fusion. We need to change our infrastructure - so what? If we don't change it, we die: It's really very simple.
( , Tue 29 Jun 2010, 15:03, Reply)

I just suggested we stopped howling at the moon with silly ideas. O level physics will tell you energy never runs out, it simply changes form. Newton will tell you for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Whatever we harness from the wind or sea, there will be a price to pay somewhere; especially with the amount we are talking about to power the planet. The only free energy we get without a 'physics' price is the sun. I suggest we work on harnessing that.

But it does really bug me that people rant, even violently protest, without thinking it through. Take wind energy. If a turbine was able (they aren't yet) to harness 1% of the wind passing it, the wind the other side hass 99% of the power it had. So 100 turbines would mean a dead calm on the lee side. Pollen relies on wind, as does much of nature. What are the quincyquonces? I don't think we know.
If we dam every river or bay to grab tidal power, what does that do th the eco-systems that existed there? I don't think we know.
In summary, I'm not about to go and bash a copper over the head to save the planet when I have no idea what I'm talking about.
