A little story in the Independent about a report produced by a travel company—Intrepid Travel—catches my eye. It’s about personal carbon emission allowances, and how holiday flights may have to be accounted for. It even suggests that as the world gets hotter tourists may prefer to alter their plans and go to cooler places. Well, I bet that’s already happening. The story has an opinion tracker, and when I looked it seemed a lot of people were in denial about the need for personal carbon allowances (allowance is such a nice word compared to ration). The comments below the line were similarly dismissive, and of course highly literate. Here’s an example: ‘what a load of rubish most of these called wild wires were caused by arson.this has been proven ,probably by the same people pushing the climate agenda,dont believe ,gb news posted this ,dont belive the rest of the globalist media been fed to you’ So that’s what climate scientists do when they go on holiday! Never mind the arseholes with their throwaway barbecue kits who seem determined to burn our precious moors. It’s high time the psychologists found a means of penetrating the brains (sic) of these people. Now we have the spectacle of the Tory leadership determined to give succour to the brain dead denialist numpties. And we’re told not to despair.
