I think the argument should get away from climate change
and go to being less wasteful and less reliant on forrin oil. Everyone agrees with that, except the forrins.

Well, yes.
Also, "don't shit where you eat" seems to me quite enough reason not to but stuff into the air that we breath and the water we drink. It all seems pragmatic rather than idealistic to me and I'm not sure why ther would be such resistance.

Chompy is right...partly
...that a large part of the issue is our dependence on oil, which is running out faster than we realise. If a politician admits "we're running out of oil" then the market goes crazy, idiots panic buy and traders make a fortune. The oil industry has a significant lobby clout too.

Are you suggesting that we should go out and panic buy oil?

yeah man, im with you.
I'm not 100% convinced its man made after reading that Michael chriton book... That the environentalists lobbyers are paid millions as well as the oil ones so they have just as much to personally gain.

But put it that we shouldn't be so wastefull and you're spot on, everyone agrees
