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.

    Roger Bryant:  The German Greens have done well so far, forcing the closure of viable nuclear plants so the electricity shortfall is produced by burning lignite or importing fossil fuel electricity from Poland.

    Not really an accurate summary of the situation.

    It was the centre-right CDU that exited nuclear, namely Angela Merkel. 

    The reason lignite is being burnt is that the miner and energy producer RWE (which has two large open-cast mines at Hambach and Garzweiler SW of Cologne which are continually the subject of demonstrations), has a government contract to do so which runs a while yet and cannot be forced to stop early (people and politicians have tried). 

    By the end of 2020, almost half of the electricity in Germany came from sustainables (46%). Current goal is 65% by 2030. We might well get there earlier.
