If anyone can loan me a state and zip code I'll be there (or not), I'm in the EU.

Bugger! I have a cruise booked with them for next month. Not happy with Boots either.

I've already had a reply, sounds like its one that have used before.

Thanks I have done the same, can't post my full email but it starts; I am writing as a constituent to ask for your urgent intervention in the case of Heba Muraisi and Kamran Ahmed, who are currently on hunger strike in protest at their treatment and ongoing situation. I am deeply concerned about..

The Buddah isn't ironic, it's a sign that my Air miles are embarrassing. Your analogy breaks down. I don't want to be thin, I want legislation to solve the obesity crisis. Me being thin while the world gets fatter will make no difference.

I understand that. But why is the onus on those who want to be omnivores? I understand climate change, I know we should need Net Zero, I want Governments to make polluters pay and cut emissions. But I also want the choice to eat a burger, fried chicken, have cheese with port etc.

Because people enjoy meat and dairy, and because the blame is being again pushed on the consumer and not the polluters, which may include the farmers but not exclusively.

Any word from Mr. Gates about his comments are being misrepresented?

I give a lot of credit to those that attended that weren't invited.

It's a poem, from a respected poet BTW, that reduces countries to stereotypes and what the world knows them for. Do you think Germany is all about umpa bands? Argentina for cheating at soccer? You just have to learn and accept that the rest of the world sees the unacceptable gun violence in the US

Why would you being insular and not understanding the world bug him? 🙄

You clearly don't know what America is known for around the world

Sorry to be pedantic but surely you need a scale? The graph clear is indicative of increasing global warming but how do we know if the darkest colours represent 1 watt or 1000?

Professor Gilbert Hayes @profgilberthayes.bsky.social · 06/06/2025

So what is the scale in Wm/2 do the colours equate to?

Professor Gilbert Hayes @profgilberthayes.bsky.social · 06/06/2025

Sorry for my ignorant. So they represent Wm/2. With white being 0, red positive and blue negative.

Professor Gilbert Hayes @profgilberthayes.bsky.social · 05/06/2025

Nice. Can you include a link to the data please? What temperature does each colour represent?

And we stopped using gas lighting with the adoption of the electric bulb. We stopped using the telegraph with the adoption of the phone. We stopped fax with email. And we will stop using fossil fuels, a finite resourcewiyh other tech. It's a given.

That's makes as much sense as saying no population deprived of oil lamps. Progress to cleaner more efficient and healthier tech has always led to better lives in general. That's why your groceries don't arrive by horse.
