Oh dear Lord. I suppose we all only hear (or read) what we want to……..
“Scientific consensus? There is no consensus, there very rarely is in “science”. Because unlike many people on this forum, scientists know they don’t know everything and that there’s a better than average chance they’re wrong.
I also don’t disregard anything. I just seek as much information as I can, from as many sources as I can, and then form my own opinion.
As opposed to having my opinion given to me.

So, having intelligently done your "due diligence", where is the evidence that the consensus is wrong?

Well you’ll have to tell me exactly what the “consensus” is?
If you mean, is the climate changing? I’ve never disputed that.
If it’s more than that, then tell me what it is

Again, thank you. You have also confirmed that, at least for you, it is all about the money.

Absolutely it is, and when you have to pay £12,000 for heat pump equipment that doesn’t heat your house properly and change all your radiators, and probably have spend a further few grand to insulate your house, when you’re paying more than you’re paying now for your energy. When you have to pay £15 a day to drive out the street you live in, when your summer holiday is prohibitively expensive. I could go on and on.
Or maybe you’re so fabulously wealthy non of this matter to you.
But do you know who it does matter to?
All the parts of the world in my previous post, who don’t give a toss what you think, they’ll burn their coal, use their oil, burn their gas and will use their internal combustion engines. Because it’s cheap.
So can have a cheap dig me, my pleasure. But it doesn’t matter what I think. Or what you think.
