I hope the Climate Activists are proud of the effect their lies are having on the younger generation

Roger B

If this survey is real the messages these young people are receiving are completely wrong.

We need to reduce our impact on our planet but CO2 is a complete red herring. The current ECS (temperature increase for a doubling of CO2 in the atmosphere) is centred around 3°C (IPCC AR6). The 2°C will destroy civilisation is simply made up.

    I think that we should focus on the use of valuable resources like coal and gas that will run out eventually. My ideas are informed by the book ‘Sustainable Energy - without the hot air’ written by David JC MacKay.

    I believe that we should be looking to make use of these resources as efficient as possible while minimising any emissions, including CO2. Then we should be identifying alternatives to these resources but taking the time to understand and offset the potential environmental damage done by these resources. Human beings are fortunate in that we have lived through a very stable part of Earth's history, so change is inevitable. We should be thinking about how to build homes and infrastructure so that is can survive these changes.

    Then each individual should be thinking about how to reduces their usage of energy. This is something that we have followed and in the last 15 years have reduced out the energy usage in our home by nearly 50%, which saves about £1,000 per year.

    As an engineer, I built a model of the home, identified the major areas of loss and thought about cheap ways of resolving it. I found government advise to be useless. We had an EPC assessment done, which concluded that we were using the original usage before we implemented our changes - so government don't understand what we have done, it is not in their model.

    If we all did this it would have a massive impact.
