Look what we've done to the world...
I don't know if you've heard but there's one or two people talking about "climate change" at the moment. Basically, the idea is that the planet is getting warmer as a result of the increase in carbon dioxide emissions. Then along comes a programme on Channel 4 saying its all a load of pony. Apparently, throughout history the planet has heated up and cooled down and although human beings are responsible CO2 emissions, it really has very little effect on the climate. Leading scientists and environmentalists go on to say we're all wasting our time so use as many plastic bags as you want, fly to France via Chile and come home in a 4x4. I put this argument to these guys and they pointed me to this response. You can do what you want but I'm going to keep washing out my yoghurt pots and putting them in a special bin (and then obviously using recycled products otherwise there's no point is there?)
