Presenting the problem as one of individual action is bollocks.
On the edge of no return. Yes, absolutely, the human race needs to see itself as children of the universe in order to tackle the big issues ( to paraphrase Richard Feynman) but now we have rabid populism politics and right wing reactionary xenophobia. Trump, Johnson et al and all their supporters can go to hell, condemning the rest of us and our offspring as well.

Bloody cold today although I have been in and out all day. Now sat at home and this is my view (obligatory foot and mug of tea shot).

Have you guys thought about getting a stove fan, to distribute the heat a bit better?

Very interesting that, Lindsay.

I've got an eco fan but stopped using it as we thought it was distributing ash throughout the room. It did help with the heat a bit but I don't really miss it.
