Question about globle warming [modified]

Hard words, but true. I have totally lost faith in charities given what I have learned about where the money ends up.

Yep, if we all switch to eating Kangaroo it'll fix the problem. Not sure how good Kangaroo milk is though.
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

When we all got conned into giving money to Ethiopia back in the 80's, we were told it would be for their benefit. We saw how a lot of it was stolen and misappropriated etc. The population of Ethiopia today is double that of the 1980's. Whose fault is it when they starve? Not mine.

I recently developed an awesome plan to solve most of the worlds problems in one go: This is based on the following observations: - Africa has a lot of sand - Africa has a lot of sun - pompous western do-gooders will pay extortionate sums for 'ethnic' things 1. Teach starving africans to make glass out of all the sand 2. Trade food with the africans for their glass 'ethnic art' 3. Use money from ethnic art to buy various electronic components 4. Get (no longer starving) africans to make more glass 5. use electronic components plus glass to make sh*tloads of solar panels 6. Cover most of africa in solar panels turning it into a massive solar power plant 7. Run a cable to the rest of the world 8. retrain africans to polish solar panels 9. Sit back and bask in the warm fuzzy glow of knowing you solved starvation in africa, the world fuel crisis and global warming in one go EDIT : 10. learn to count to 9, doh!

The one vote wasn't mine. But the topic is pretty much off limits in the lounge. You have been here more than long enough to know that.

As much as we don't like hearing about global warming, it is not a Backroom topic, IMHO.

Your words hold a lot of truth with me. However, you have been amassing quite a collection of one votes lately. :-D

Yes, everyone has to leave their fridges open. :) --edit-- I see a one voter with a serious sense of humour failure! :laugh:

I would have thought issuing lubricant would have prevented more warming? :)

You do seem to know a thing or two about it. :laugh:
