Cells are programmed to group and belong. On one level, science has documented research to back up the spiritual metaphysics. Likewise, EQ would indicate that the need to belong is a primary motivator.

But what is more fascinating is how such groups frequently flock to areas that are heading for disaster at best and total destruction at worst.

Think of California or Thailand and now England. I have long believed, well before reading about it in science magazines, that parts of Southern England would sink into the sea. Yet it is the part of Britain with an ever-increasing population. With ever more human lemmings heading here, and more governmental morons aiding future destruction with endless building of houses and roads.

Meanwhile, I thought I lost a canvas and spent at least an hour looking for it. Corel Draw took over an hour to download; even longer to install… and then told me I had zero days of free trial. So I removed it and won´t be buying it.

Anyone noticed how much Russia is mentioned on the idiot box these days?

As it happens, I have been growing quite intrigued by the country and make a point of watching the programmes, the best of which, so far, is Jonathan Dimbleby’s Russian Tour. I mentioned it before and it is definitely worth catching up on BBC iPlayer.

Not a good move having The Art of Russia on at the same time as Spooks though!

What really annoys me about these climate change dogmatists, is their utter confidence that humans are totally to blame. All that science, as that emotional butterfly, Bryan Appleyard, opines "…can ever be is the best guess of the best minds."

True. Who knows what really caused the last Ice Age? It could have been down to flatulent dinosaurs.

If the powers-that-be really wanted to make a difference with their climate change policies, they´d use the internet, YouTube and videoconferencing to hold this conference. As this conference actually INCREASES greenhouse gases, I will be ignoring any of their findings.

Humans are definitely to blame for a lot of planetary change.

Greed usually makes others insensitive to the needs of the whole, and it isn´t just human sentients who share this organism.

But the key issue surely is whether change could be stopped or even slowed down. Probably not, unless we want a return to the Dark Ages.

Too many people vying for the same resources - actually, probably reduced resources given the scale of building of houses and roads … and Tescos… covering every spare inch of land - those are what will irremediably change life on Earth.

A bit of abstinence wouldn´t hurt anyone either but, such is the way of the world today, we actually incentivise far too many unworthy humans into dropping babies like bullets.

Why should we believe and pay up based on best guesses?

A couple of years ago, I attended a talk at St Margaret´s Church in Angmering. Unfortunately for the speaker, who seemed to have a massive carbon footprint, the slides he showed of green shoots appearing as ice melted were, to me, a fabulous sign of new life cycles.

It is their turn.

As one area dries up, so arable lands are created in other parts of the world. Siberia, the new Disneyworld - circa 2050. Or whenever!

BUT, I am absolutely and vehemently against raping and pillaging the land, even on a small scale. Not that it will stop any time soon. Meanwhile, this will be another excuse to tax and limit our freedoms.

Climate change, global warming, the Sun dying out, ice caps melting… yup, clear as mud. Science seems to have become the new religion because it supposedly provides `proof´. Except it does not. And some scientists over egg their case for rather non-altruistic reasons.

Science can only really prove something based on known criteria, otherwise its findings would fall into the realms of religiosity and mysticism. And I´ve asked this before, but how can anyone know what frames of reference there were even a million years ago, let alone mindboggling numbers like 34 million? Or even in the billions? It is all supposition. The facts are only facts based on known criteria, and there is always the possibility that some as yet unknown fact will kibosh all those scientific facts. (No apologies for the repeated word `fact´.)

It does seem warmer than the winters of my childhood in England although how that squares with another ice age is beyond me. And that´s the problem. Conflicting evidence doesn´t seem to stop the gospel of climate change becoming ever more frantic. And blaming humans.

Blaming humans, of course, means there is an excuse to charge the taxpayer yet more dosh while curtailing or stopping things we can do! Those who take it upon themselves to lecture us, needless to say, are not subject to those same limitations!

The Blessed Gore has a climate change footprint wider than his rather substantial butt. (Not sure what he currently looks like but he seemed to be getting fatter and fatter the more he pronounced…)

Of course humans have an effect on the whole, though it should not just be human activities that are measured.

Yes, human activities, like deforestation, do cause a very real threat - to other sentients and to the planet overall and our place in the cosmos, spiritual or otherwise. But then so too do the massive building programmes here in England; roads and houses, reclaiming land and so on, but I don´t hear anyone crying out for that to stop.

Every cause has an effect. The bigger the cause the bigger the effect. Science measures known facts in known timescales. But what if we do not know when the payback will be?

Time is measured by known criteria like the rising and setting of the Sun, or previously through lunar movements, but the effects of any action could take some while to show, and could in turn be reduced or changed by other, non-human, actions.

Ultimately, all of life, including the climate, is subject to change. It´s the nature of the beast.
