Hello Andy:

I have never used or intend to use any social media like (Twitter/X or Facebook)  because of computer security concerns.

There is no fully secure computer system.

I also do not have a smart phone- I only use simple plain wireless phones,  again for security reasons.

Oh (going on in another direction) how does one handle (what I call digital assets) for reference in one legal will or Trust?

By the way the most difficult questions are usually the shortest ones involving the word "WHY". 

Example WHY is the UK undergoing so much wet/damp cold weather at this time?

Hello Andy:

I just had my afternoon coffee with my wife and we discussed your latest thread. Yes my wife likes to read and discuss them.

1- Usually when men go to a Pub (Tavern) over here, it is to pick up a women and not discuss things like climate change.

2- Climate change item- The UK's contribution to the worlds climate change is so small it is meaningless. Human's will not make the necessary changes to prevent it happening. Humans will have to adapt to a 3 degrees temperature increase by the end of this century. You and I will not see what happens.

3. The plan to make an accurate digital world model reflecting climate changes will likely not work as we don't know all the trip points.

I have yet to see anybody develop a model covering the effects of the Sahara dust storms coming of the African coast into the Atlantic which effects hurricane development every year.

Regarding your sawing some wood. Where you using wood from your property? I have removed all the trees under 100 ft from my house to prevent a) house damage from hurricanes, b) roots getting under the house and c) to prevent termite damage.

I see they are now making fuel for aircraft using sawdust and bark from forests.

You’ve shared insightful thoughts, but now I’m curious.  What practical steps do you propose to make our world a better place? It’s too easy to be pessimistic. 

To answer your question the final result will be the same as what happened during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Big money coupled with the politicians, won the battle against the medical community.   

Why should the climate change problem be any different?  Money equals power!
