Wednesday 15th 49F, very dark overcast, all day rain and gales. Fortunately, the overnight gales went completely unnoticed by myself. I walked down to the marsh pond in a strong tail wind but only light rain. A pair of herons moved away but I saw no other birds on the lake. A flock of perhaps one hundred Fieldfares were practicing emergency landings on a roadside field. Then somebody panicked and the whole cloud of birds shot right over my head and dispersed onwards.
Denmark's largest CO2 producers have been handed a free license to manufacture even more CO2 by the EU. You know, the same, corrupt EU which wants to spend an absolute fortune fighting climate change? That's right. Them. The ones who launder billions in pointless projects for the mafia.
Denmark's largest firms have been given the green light to carry on as normal and are actually increasing their CO2 production. By burning more coal, in the case of Rockwool. A spokesperson said they might get around to changing to electricity or even GAS [another fossil fuel just like coal] if they feel like it.
Where's the pressure to improve when there is absolutely no pressure to change? The EU's excuse for blocking progress on major CO2 manufacturers? Outside competition! Dugh. Denmark's smaller businesses must all pay climate taxes. Only the largest are freed. Denmark claims it wants to reduce CO2 manufacture by 70% by the year 2830. Fat chance!!
It is official. 2000-2010 was the hottest decade on record. 2019 may be the hottest ever recorded after 2016. 2020 is expected to be as hot or even hotter. We have already reached 1.2C above pre-industrial levels. With those in power lying through their teeth about change for the better. Election promises are dropped like hot potatoes as soon as their salaries and pensions are safely raised. Most world leaders are deliberately ignorant and belittling of those who demand change. The car industries are slowly dying as public transport fares rise inexorably to match deliberate overcrowding for profit.
