    But climate change isn’t real and/or man made. Some Trump supporters told me.

    Trump is last year's news.

    How about getting onto China who blow out twice as much carbon as the USA?

    And they don't make anything worth watching on the TV either.

    China is just catching up to us in the West in terms of the industrial revolution.

    No, but it only seems right that the West leads the way in climate control.

    Got to look on this in terms of the size of the population surely? Otherwise we should follow the model of San Marino who as well as being ***** at football probably produce very little CO2 as a country.

    Good old USOfA not so good.

    We all have to change and what we do as individuals matters. Less meat, less flights, less blaming others. We started this.
