The Capitalist economic system requires two things which by their nature are wasteful of the earth's resources, an ever-increasing population level and the manufacture and sale of goods. Yes im aware of this, but what are we going to do about it. If everyone could make the distinction between need and want that would slow down the rot. But they won't. We need the capitalist system to fail before an alternative is forthcoming because while people can amass 100,s or 1,000s times more money than they will ever need they will do so. Money allows this so the monetary system needs to fail globally. That would shake things up.

Yes of course but how would that fit with the capitalist model that seeks perpetual growth; a significant factor of which is obsolescence, in order that the capitalists can continues to make things and make fortunes while handing a few crumbs down to the ever growing hordes of folk working to enable this? So what are you going to do about it? At least this young lady is doing something even if she looks like "a mong." Nothing. I do respect mong face for having more drive in this department than I do myself. I'm not a leader, I'm a bystander who tries to cut through bullshit (often heard, and accepted as fact) with logic and humanity, in equal measures.

Lets hope he doesnt succed before it all goes tits up. Elon Musk is a capitalist simply interested in getting as much money as possible. Look - he's selling cars !! Colonies on mars are a publicity stunt like the self driving cars next year nonsense. The spacex thing looks suspiciously like a defence initiative. At some point there will be major global conflict. That's obvious as a result of rapid collapse of existing systems. If you can gain control of space transport you are going to get a lot of money. Surely it's going be more efficient to destroy other people from directly above them.

There is no doubt that climate change happens and is happening. What is open to debate and discussion is the extent to which man is influencing it versus it being a natural phenomenon. She and her acolytes wont accept that. I dont think alot of pacific islanders would say its open to debate. Nothing to stop them from coming to Britain and getting boats and parking up for free in Newark. CRT plays a blind eye to that sort of thing.

Yes im aware of this, but what are we going to do about it. We bought a new kettle on Saturday. Our old one was 10 years old and gave up the ghost. It was Made in Poland (Philips). The new one is the same model and also Made in Poland. 2 year guarantee.

Nothing. I expect though that at some stage, Mother Nature will decide that remedial action is required. Yes nature will rid itself of the cancer that is the human race. Who cares if humans are gone in another 200 years? The other animals and plants will flourish, the planet will keep going round the Sun, and the Sun will continue to revolve around the centre of the Milky Way galaxy. Everyone happy.

She has one of those faces I want to slap... really hard !😡 Personally,I think she is a 'puppet' with her parents operating the strings. She needs to get back to her education where she can learn to be a useful member of society,rather than telling others how to live. *In case you hadn't guessed,I'm not a fan.😄 I'm afraid if I was her mother I would be "suggesting firmly" that she needs to get an education under her belt in order to secure employment which will pay for her high ideals.. Principles, however laudable, need to be paid for.
