Second organising meeting for a youth contingent at the Walk Against Warming

17 people might show up.

Gold.

how is ‘walking’ making the world a better place ?

unless you have control over the sun you cant stop global warming or cooling.

I disagree, Maelinar. A dumbass would be a person who WATCHES Sunrise.

I think you are missing a huge point tt.

Most people would be watching these programs, regardless of if it was something informational or yet more reruns of Happy Days.

Therefore the carbon cost is neutral.

Dumbass.

Has anyone checked the carbon footprint of mass protest?

How much carbon was produced to run and watch live earth? What was the environmental damage of cinema’s running an undeniable truth, how much carbon was created through the 2000 presidential campaign as airforce 2 ploughed its way around the states with essentially one passenger? I saw the sunrise program during their cool the earth campaign try and say thay were “carbon neutral” However, their estimation of their carbon footprint did not include the electricity required to consume their product(ie turning on millions of TV sets around the country).

People have not focused on what the actual implications of climate change is and what we will need to stop doing to stop greenhouse gases being emitted. At the moment it is sexy, but when the cost start mounting and the non-effective feel goods are done (with no tangible impact on warming) just wait for the blow back!

Technology is our only solution, because people WILL not pay the cost or do without things that they want – fool paradise if anyone thinks that sustainable change in behaviour is happening

Party like its 2099.

Denialists.

Burn the blasphemers!!

Can someone attach this video to the article?

“…try to make the world a better place..”

It would be a better place if smug hippies could start and end the walk under water

Socialistica,

I’m sure your 5 confirmed guests will have a nice stroll. As for your 36 people who have confirmed they will not attend, I’m sure they have better things to do than waste their time on some political fad issue.

I bet you smell your own farts
