this thing about immigrants raping and stabbing - ok it's bad, but it's not the worst thing they do. The worst thing is what all of them do. They all use our water. They all need land for housing. Immigrants out by violent means. No compassion. No excuses. To say it's OK to build build build has shown Labour and Conservatives simply don't care about the countryside. Turning the whole place into some suburban concrete mess of human nests. We should discriminate against any homo sapiens who want to come and live here. Do without new doctors and engineers from abroad, bringing their familes. If our doctors aren't enough, we sacrifice something else and pay more to stop ours going to Australia as soon as they are trained. It's worth closing the borders off with violence to save whats left of the countryside.

New gear ≠ new replacement parts.

de-rail thread title says new kit - not 'what replacement parts have you bought?' No, that's not an idea for a new thread

NASA still seem to agree the increase in carbon dioxide has warmed the planet Carbon Dioxide - Earth Indicator - NASA Science SCIENCE.NASA.GOV Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases trap the heat from sunlight, warming the planet...

the new skin job sex robots could possibly reduce reported rapes, unless the skin jobs have to consent first

ah well if it takes our job, at least we can rely on Border Force if we need to score

how is that relevant? Germany was also fighting Russia, would need to exand the scale, us Brits alone didn't do the whole 7.5m Germans

that barchart says it all. 2008 to 2023. This is the backdrop - events leading up to when Hamas attacked. Of course people can say 'Hamas lied about those figures too'.

there's an extra g "Gingko" is the common misspelling of Ginkgo (or Ginkgo biloba), a unique tree species that is often called a "living fossil" because it is the sole survivor of an ancient order of trees dating back over 200 million years.

So in your summing up you have not one bit of empathy for all the Palestinians murdered by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank. Of course the UN says the settlements are illegal, but what with the UN being in with Hamas and all they would say that wouldn't they. Talking to you and trying to reason with you about this - I feel like you're on the side of oppressors, completely brainwashed. Like our government who banned Palestine Action. Of course Palestine Action and similar groups want to hit out at anything they think has helped arm Israel. Israel is to my mind a vicious apartheid state. I'm like so what about the murders commited by Hamas, honestly. The reason is because for decades all Palestinians have been treated terribly by Israel. Israel steals their land - it's a fact. If the news reports of de facto annexation are made up, then maybe they made up the whole war.

When Amsterdam was occupied the Jews suffered terribly, banned from public places, many rounded up and sent to the camps to be murdered. Now what? Now some of todays Jews, namely hardline Israelis have dealt some out themselves. Israel has committed genocide in the Gaza Strip, UN Commission finds 16 September 2025

at least a lot of the composite blades for wind turbines are made in UK

however, even though the Our World In Data checks out - agreeing with johnsond's search screenshot figure of 50.8% UK electricity from renewables (in that year) BOTH sources are wrong. Why? Because they include biomass in renewables. What a con that is. Can't see how we get 7% credit to our renewables target for shipping in wood and burning it. Burning trees is an impatient way of burning oil - both release carbon dioxide to form an insulating layer in the upper atmosphere. Carbon Payback Period: It takes a long time for new trees to grow and reabsorb the carbon emitted from burning older trees. This means that burning biomass can contribute to warming for decades or even centuries before a "payback" occurs.

42s Our World in Data link does show the UK if you type it in the search and the figure matches that in the bottom of of the above search screenshot - 51% ~ 50.8% . Even James Harvey would be happy.

now it is 40% coal powered ? - too wet for hedge cutting, so I'm in fact checking mode and you are found out once more In 2024, coal accounted for approximately 59% of China’s electricity generation, with wind, solar, hydro, and nuclear contributing most of the remainder. You made it sound like coal use in China is already coming down due to renewables, it hasn't come down (there has been no transition over 15 years, as you claim. I agree with you it will happen, but coal use hasn't been reduced yet, the renewables have added to capacity, not replaced fossil fuel burning. So far China's total electricity generation has gone up, but coal hasn't come down. unlike UK or US - China is still building more of these coal plants
-
why another week - China is polluting and spying on us this week.
-
true enough - I'm quite happy for them to destroy the planet for future generations, as long as they will send me copy carburettors through my letterbox for £15, better than paying £100 from a local dealer.

just because China aren't as bad as US or Canada per capita, doesn't mean they are in the clear, rather being responsible for 35% of world CO2 emissions, but only 17% of world's population means China are still world climate enemy number 1. All the coal they still burn - absolutely atrocious.
-
China is still twice as bad as us - and there are billions of the blighters at it
-
what you are getting at is China is not the worst polluter per capita (US is the highest polluter per person at 14 odd tonnes CO2 each per year) China only 8 tonnes and the angel like Brits at a mere 4 tonnes.

China vs. the world in CO2 emissions Total Emissions: China is the largest single contributor to global CO2 emissions. A 2023 report by the International Energy Agency (IEA) found that China was responsible for 35% of global CO2 emissions, exceeding the combined emissions of all developed economies.

even with tyres it's asking a lot of the slabs - I don't own a 500i, but that would have been my favoured tool - along with another tool to lift it off the ladder/ spikes

sorry can't comply - had my fix of attention seeking behaviour for now. Time for me to withdraw and compress
