Highly likely, I'm afraid Martin.  :(

I guess you know my views by now.  ;)

Even the second bridge caused all sorts of changes to the rivers ecosystem --- Lord alone knows what this barrage would do !

It is all this carbon 'dangle berries' again.

global warming or not, I am old fashioned, I think that minimising POLUTION, minimising USAGE, and planting lots of trees is more important.

Also why does Heathrow need a 3rd runway?

so they can evict 5000 people from there homes and give the taxman loads of revenue from the extra 170,000 flights a yr. thats why hes taxing everyman and his car to get you off the rd so they can increase the flights to cover the extra emissions thats gonna polute the air

Suddenly the environment isn't such a concern when they stand to gain some money from destroying it instead of protecting it.

When Manston has one of the biggest runways in the country collecting dust (well not quite, but you know what I mean!)

The projects this crowd are coming out with fill me with despair.

Severn Barrage - lose wader areas and Severn Bore

Heathrow - houses gone, pollution will go up, air travel will be a large proportion of our carbon credits ::)

CO2 obsession - I prefer cutting down on usage, and shutting power stations due to this is mental. Also plant some trees OK!

Nuclear - just build the damn things, alongside existing ones.

IT schemes - what a way to waste billions, and why should they track us so much - isn't this a free country or does Labour think 1984 is an instruction manual >:(

Massive wind farms - small are fine, the ones planned are ugly and take up masses of room - however only work when windy - what do we fill in with?

Martin, I agree 100%

Governments (and not just ours) are spending billions on this huge scam. Of course we need a gradual adjustment to new forms of energy in the future (and they will come naturally once we're past this credit crunch and R&D takes off again).

This knee-jerk enviromentalism is far more destructive than the perceived problem it claims to be addressing.  

Besides which, suppose it's getting colder not warmer? Read David Bellamy's piece in today's Washington Times:

That's an interesting article, :y and I would trust David Bellamy above the rubbish people are trying to scare us with. :( But this article also fits with what I given to underestand as a school boy in the 1960's there was talk then of heading towards an ice age.

Glad you liked it, Mike. I've just noticed this recent interview with David Bellamy on Irish TV (he's been "banned" by the BBC as he mentions!).

A really good bloke, IMHO. He cares for the environment, as I do, but will not buy the warming hoax.

A must-see clip.  :y :y :y
