In 12 years the entire world is literally going to end instantly if we literally dont accept the realistic demands of #ExtinctionRebellion who will use the science and positivity to stop this

No doubt this will be conveniently ignored by the bulk of the UK media.
Well, it's wise to always have an inquiring mind, but in respect of something I don't know much about personally, given the choice between the overwhelming majority of people who have spent their adult lives researching the subject, and having that research subject to critical peer review within the scientific community on the one hand, and anonymous letter writers to local newspapers, call me crazy, but I'll go with the people who know what they're talking about.
Rewind to when the overwhelming weight of scientific opinion was that smoking carried a high risk of lung cancer, there was still people paid for the tobacco industry and cranks motivated by politics or self-interest who argued bitterly that it was wrong. I think we're seeing something very similar now.

Studies into vehicle emissions haven’t exactly been right over the last couple of years though to be fair, especially German ones.

That was kind of my point, amazing what the Government/Police can do when they want to.

Imagine Londoners complaining about people trying to save the planet 
Bloody students. Emptying donut shops.
How would flying standard class cut her carbon footprint ?"What about your emissions flying all the way across here forr this demonstration?"
Emma Thompson "Yes, but I plant a lot of trees"
"Would you cobsider flying standard class to help cut down on your carbon foot print?
Emma Thompson "bloody hell, no"

She'd still be flying. In the same plane, but in a different seat.
What a f***ing idiotic question that was.

My point is people seem to jump on the bandwagon without having any real idea about what they're talking about. This goes for people who take scientific opinion as fact, as well has people who believe shit read in newspapers etc. I've got a better understanding of the subject than the vast majority of people yet wouldn't claim to be an expert that knew anything for sure.
Our knowledge of the subject is still young and there are a multitude of forces, both natural and man made at work here. All the information that you see in the media is biased and unbalanced. You see 'hottest days on record's etc but records have been kept for just over a century.

I love it when kids have a reason to get out of bed. Frightens the crap out of the establishment.

These lot are mostly middle aged and OAP poshies with too much time on their hands, who are acting out their teen rebellious streak (that mummy and daddy didn't approve of and so they repressed it for 40 years), in the most beige way possible.

Twice/three times as many people can fly standard class, therefore fewer planes. Should be enforced (if we're serious about climate change)

Some proper experts on here as normal. Most have the answer about where to stay in the world, best pubs and best pint anywhere you care to mention, oyster cards or contactless. Now they are experts on climate change and timeframes for change.
