I laughed like a drain at this pillock's progress:

What's funny about this failure, colonel?

it was never going to work, not without massive publicity, i knew nothing about it

I think what it might show is that if left to their own choices the public basically don't give a fuck, the 'i'm alright jack' mentality will prevail. This sort of thinking will pave the way for forcing people to use less via taxes or higher costs for goods such as carrier bags

this in turn will see the opposition say vote for us and we'll cut environmental tax, then the EU will impose cuts on the UK. The opposition will then say, vote for us and we'll fuck the EU off etc etc

nothing changes, i can see a bleak future.....god i'm depressing today

I never knew about it either. It was obviously badly organised.

It just proves that if the populace of a liberal, educated nation are either ignorant of the facts, or in denial, then what hope of less liberal, educated nations?

well maybe it requires some draconian laws, China recently banned companies giving out free plastic bags and passed laws forcing manufacturers to produce ultra thin one. Maybe a small step, but lots of small steps can get you a long way

Well, as climate change has nothing to do with human use of energy, but rather by solar activity, it was a pointless idea anyway.

Nothing more than an exercise in feeling good about yourself for doing your bit

Like changing your light bulbs

Celebrities buying forest plantations so they don't leave a carbon footprint

While at the same time people are buying home entertainment systems
complete with game consoles,big screen tvs,hi-fi & computer like never before which make the light bulb savings totally inconsequential


If you want people to use less you charge them more

Its the only way that works

Mind you if you let the developing world become as wasteful as we are it really wont matter regardless of whether you believe in global warming or not
