That is true, but these subjects can get out of hand quite quickly, when they do the thread will be closed.I note that the rules for ETO don't preclude this subject, so here goes:
Hi Spec,
My view is that the source of the problem is that the world population is greater than the earth is capable of supporting with the amount of energy used per person to live the type of life we expect. (Cars, heated houses etc.) The only country that seems to be tackling the cause at the moment is China.

Good thread, ...
...in my opinion, population has to do what it can to limit energy use , plus recycling. Burning fossil fuels will one day have to stop, current I don't think CO2 levels are greatly influenced by 'man' plus I think methane is a bigger threat to GW .
However ... a short story.
Wife has a small tin of sardines for her lunch, and as per local council instructions , she rinses tin with hot water , does not want a smelly tin in the kitchen, so takes it out to the back yard recycle bin, its freezing out there , but leaves the doors open for a few seconds ... energy saved ? The council take our recycling 100's of miles in massive trucks to Kent ( 3 per day ) to get it sorted . energy saved ?
Fossil fuels are by definition likely to be depleted one day
Whether there REALLY is such a thing as man made global warming, I am very sceptical. If I were a climate scientist I would be absolutely sure that mmgw was real in order to get my research money from to government.
As for the outpourings of the BBC, much of that is inspired by left wing media lovies who do not have a trace of technical/scientific knowledge or ability.
When you have guzzled your Coke in Deutschland, you can take back the thick plastic bottle and get 0.5Euro back.
Which is better, a one trip flimsy bottle, or a multi-trip rugged bottle?
Exactly the same principle.I'm sure we all remember when we used to do that with milk bottles here .. .. .. what was the reason we stopped ??

In which case it makes sense to use those fuels sparingly and to use renewable alternatives where possible.

Further to granddads sardine can.
In the UK we recycle plastic bottles, in my case they get put into the blue topped wheelie bin along with paper and sardine cans. They are then hauled off every two weeks to be sorted and...???
In Germany, soft drinks bottles are made from a thick hard plastic, unlike the flimsy ones we have in the UK.

Morning Guys
Oh I don't know Jim, there's still plenty of old fossils about !
<<<<<<<<<<<<< look here ! ...
In Vietnam this is the first time 35,5°C in the winter
Someone mentioned 'Coke' where do they get the CO2 from ? .... and the billion similar drinks like them consumed globally every day, if governments were serious , surely that could be a target to reduce emissions ?? Or is it just about green taxes...

So I choose class AB is good, save many power. As an electronic hobbyist, I say we will powered a lot of circuit in the future with solar or wind power, and replace normal fuels with electric and solar power.
