We cant continue as is, even if climate change is a hoax like you all say, the way we are living now means the earth will be depleted and polluted beyond repair sooner or later. Why is it so scary to every one that they may have to live with less choice of crap that we consume?
In other words bicycles for us plebeians while planes are reserved only for the rich. Forget about that package holiday to Spain in future it will be hard to get off this rain sodden island in the North Atlantic unless you are a member of the great and good in Irish society.
If you think I'm joking ex British prime minister May left a poison pill before she exited office.
Climate change: Big lifestyle changes 'needed to cut emissions'
Roger Harrabin - BBC environment analystPeople must use less transport, eat less red meat and buy fewer clothes if the UK is to virtually halt greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, the government's chief environment scientist has warned.
Prof Sir Ian Boyd said the public had little idea of the scale of the challenge from the so-called Net Zero emissions target.

Paul Homewood captured thisSir Ian Boyd has lifted the lid on the reality of the programme. We will all have to accept big lifestyle changes – travel less, eat less, consume less.
And forget about cheap imports from Asia, because these simply offshore emissions.
As Sir Ian points out, this is likely to mean much higher taxes on sinful consumption. Of course, this won’t matter to Elton John and co, who can afford to pay for their indulgences.
But eventually some form of compulsion or rationing will be necessary, if climate targets are to be met.
Ditch cars to meet climate change targets, say MPs

We need our own great leap forward.
If you think I'm joking there have been several expressions from western leaders and bureaucrats to do just that here is but one example.
At Toronto fundraiser, Justin Trudeau seemingly admires China's 'basic dictatorship'During the event, which itself was widely criticized for sexist and patronizing undertones, an audience member asked Mr. Trudeau which nation’s “administration he most admired.”
The party leader responded: “There is a level of admiration I actually have for China because their basic dictatorship is allowing them to actually turn their economy around on a dime and say we need to go green, we need to start, you know, investing in solar. There is a flexibility that I know Stephen Harper must dream about: having a dictatorship where you can do whatever you wanted, that I find quite interesting.”
Noting he was on camera, Mr. Trudeau then said: “But Sun News can now report that I prefer China.”

All politicians across the spectrum do that when it suits them because nobody is going to attack children, it makes your opponent look like monsters.
Important to note that Greta is a young adult (16 years) being presented as a much younger child. This is quite deliberate image manipulation by the organisation around her.
