Hasbeen: Who here would be prepared, [silly enough], to live in a high rise with 5 amp GPOs in each car position in car parks & 3.5Kw chargers installed for each car, charging cars over night?

First things first. "Who would be silly enough to live in a high Rise? Well definitely not me. I could not think of anything more restrictive if I tried. Of course, if you just wanted to stare at the Telly all day. I suppose.

I'd be lost without my Shed. I've got Electronics Projects going in one corner. Woodwork in another corner, Welding in another, Lathe & Milling in another. Then there's my vast Library of Tech. Manuals. My store with all the Nuts, Bolts, Screws, Electronic Parts, etc. Then there's the Storage of Metal & Timber, & more. Not to mention Saws, Routers, Drills, Planes & more.

It's an 9X8m Shed & it's too small, so I have two other smaller Garden Sheds. I haven't put the Awning on the Shed yet. That will be 3X4m. Coming to a shed near me soon.

The Computer is inside, of course along with the 3D Printer & Laser Printer. I like to keep busy. Idle hands are the Devils Playground as they say. Ay.

Yes Jyab, I have often wondered what you do with yourself if living in a city high rise. However it is the thought of living on my funeral pyre, without knowing just when it will be lit that would worry me.

I wonder how many climate denialists bother to "slip, slop and slap" when going out into the sun?

Apparently over a century of dumping carbon into the atmosphere has no effect but 40 years of spray cans have punched a hole in the ozone layer. Go figure. The science is very similar.

CO2 isn't the problem. The problem is "too much CO2". That's what "too much" means.

I've also noticed that many of the rusted-on denialists have stopped insisting that the planet is really cooling and have shifted to suggesting alternate reasons for it heating.

Perhaps "Population Denialism" is a bigger problem than Climate Denialism.

Human activities have driven the Earth to become greener - perhaps the strongest evidence yet of how people have become a major force in the Earth’s functioning.

Dried lake beds, failed crops, flattened trees: when we think of global warming we often think of the impacts of droughts and extreme weather. While there is truth in this image, a rather different picture is emerging.

In a paper published in Nature Climate Change, we show that the Earth has been getting greener over the past 30 years. As much as half of all vegetated land is greener today, and remarkably, only 4% of land has become browner.

Our research shows this change has been driven by human activities, particularly the rising concentration of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere. This is perhaps the strongest evidence yet of how people have become a major force in the Earth’s functioning.
