    Do you believe them unquestioningly?

    This is science, belief has nothing to do with it.

    So you want to make the M50 what, 20 lanes wide ?

    Rural living is fine by most people, thanks; not everyone wants to live in a rat-race, high-rise apartment.

    Plus, of course, you're ignoring the many, many people who raise their own chickens and eggs, or grow their own veg; this type of self-sufficiency means that there are less transport costs and carbon footprints for transport of these from rural to these utopian cities that you're proposing.

    this isnt about pollution or any of that its about control
    far too much stalinist thinking in the green movement

    The fuding for this should come from the towns and villages themselves or the state will be sucked into maintaining unviable locales.

    Politically this would be very difficult to implement. You'd probably have a full scale rebellion which would totally kill any chance for making progress here. You are not supposed to actively create opponents to your proposals!

    Naturally, one should question science. Until one can show how and where a scientific model is wrong, however, one should not act on the basis that the model is wrong, and that belief in something else is correct.

    Bear in mind that whatever that something else is, it has less evidence supporting it.
