    If we can keep the politics out of it there should be some comedy in this.

    Glasgow already has 200 electric cars (not in use?) but they weren't good enough for the delegates so allegedly they bought some Tesla's (now denied but will be interesting to see if any are there) Jaguar are providing a number of E-pace cars but there are not enough chargers so they brought in some diesel jennys. Bit of a scandal that so now the claim the jennys will be running on bio fuel made from waste cooking oil (is there that much waste cooking oil?)

    400 private planes have flown in delegates.

    The biggest polluter isn't going to be there and it looks to me like the big thing to come out of it will be the monetization of CO2. Big players will be able to buy and sell pollution and it will be joe soap who ends up paying but little action on reducing pollution.

    Funny when she doesn't have her provided script in front of her, strange things happen.

    Same way as every ****er else from abroad - minus the eighty-five limo motorcade though.

    Some of the delegates who have flown into Glasgow are being asked to attend meetings by zoom as there are not enough places in the meeting halls

    I don't see many, if any doing that. If anything, the people behind her are guilty of abuse.

    No because the deposit hasn't been paid yet.

    That's just lazy.

    She's been rolled out in a way that means pointing out she's uneducated and spouting a fair amount of scripted crap to prevent people challenging some of the abuses of science to push measures that are quite likely to change one problem for another, is viewed as bullying a damaged little girl.

    .It's intellectual cowardice on the part of those behind her.

    It's not being a denialist, it's quite the opposite.

    Like her, loathe her, whatever - she's the voice of youngsters who are gonna inherit the world - the politics behind her, leading her, financing her is moot and not for here or we'll end up closing the thread. Bottom line, Global warming's real and those that can do something about it aren't . My final word on it.

    COP26

    I like it when the guy says 'this is one of the most important meetings in history' - someone should tell sleepy Joe that...
