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.

    [PBL]……. (3) blowing flock into the eaves/sloping roof spaces. 

    Well if you do that last one here you will probably have condensation in the loft and then wet rot of the timbers.  

    Certainly a worry, but it hasn't happened with my building AFAIK. On one half of the building, we put in four new sloping windows (Velux), so had to cut out large sections of the eaves space. All dry; no issue with timbers. Replaced, though with rock wool because that is easy when you have the space open.

     

    If you insulate the sloping section (rafters) then a bit of experiment will show you must ensure free airflow between the back of the roof tiles and the outer side of the insulation 

    That is now part of standard (re-)roofing procedures. From inside to out: board, waterproof lining, joists, tiles. (And on the inside of the board comes your insulation and more board). But you can't retrofit onto an old roof such as mine. I'd need a new roof and that gets into real €€€€€.

     

     the loft is then warm and dry. There is then no real need for the ceiling rockwool. 

    That's right.
