I sort of already knew that too much cricket was one issue
It is on a BBC article that said there were two warnings, one was the
obvious too much cricket, but it took a bit more diligence to notice
the other.
"But cricket, a sport with a size 13 carbon footprint that is also
heavily impacted by climate change, has been given a glimpse of the
future."
These type of comments are frequent on BBC reports. Recently they
proudly announced that global temperatures have got higher by 1.1°C
'since the industrial era'. It was never mentioned that the
"industrial era" began 260 odd years ago.

I actually pay a licence fee just to have a device to watch this shit
on .

yes, the BBC's endless preaching is extremely tiresome
and is not part of their remit

If you don't consider the destruction of the planet as a suitable
environment for human life a sensible subject for the BBC to warn
people about, given that far too few people are doing anything serious
and we have a Conservative leadership campaign in which actively
making things worse is being thought a serious option, then it's no
wonder things are going to hell.

Cheers,

Here's a graph of the actual global mean temperatures over time, https://en..wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_surface_temperature#/media/File:20200324_Global_average_temperature_-_NASA-GISS_HadCrut_NOAA_Japan_BerkeleyE.svg
note that the vast majority of the rise is since the 1920s.

and that increased energy in the atmosphere causes increases in weather extremes, fire, flood, drought...

I don't dispute any of that. If I wanted to read about it I would have
went to the enviornment pages.
The headline is misleading and pretty much just click bait.

I've been involved in waste management for years and it seems clear to
me that over production and not recycling non consumable creates a
huge but easily addressed problem for the environment.
Food waste is crazy too, and think about the energy that goes into
creating food that just gets thrown away. Yet a small country like UK
applies green taxes to household energy bills,but it is still unable
to even recycle it's own waste. Sending waste overseas isn't helping
the environment it's just going by boat using tons of fuel into a
great big incinerator somewhere else. UK are actual well known
villains at dumping useless waste on other countries. It's sent as
recycling and is unsuitable and UK refuses to take it back.

In the Irish republic they have banned the burning of turf (peat)
Around five million people live in Ireland and only a very small
fraction of them use turf for heating and cooking.

Chopping down rain forests is a terrible thing to do and it causes a
right stink. Unless it's being done to extract lithium that is and
then you don't hear too much at all.

BBC should not drop influential material into random articles.
It might be only a line or two and it might well be and often is
absolutely true. Piggy backing a story in order to promote an agenda
is not cool. Some people will be spoon fed, but others (me included)
will feel like they are being force fed with food we have already
digested. The BBC is like a doting relative who keeps repeating the
same story to everyone somewhere in every conversation regardless how
many times they have heard it and ignorant of how thier 'audience'
behaved already.

The model T Ford was originally designed to be made from hemp fibre,
fitted with an engine that was designed to run on hemp oil.
Du Pont, Anslinger, Rockerfeller and Hearst put an end to that little
early days environmental initiative. Those lads made the choice for
the world and that choice 'strictly commercial' (with a little racism
on the side) as it was began the rise in the graph that Hamish
supplied in another post.
Subsequent laws have made that anti hemp choice a law and that
enviromentally safe raw material is now a controlled substance.

it seems quite a topical subject. but who started these fires? houses dont
spontaneously combust just cos of hot weather.

Another example of the BBC sneaking in its opinions would
be using anthing vaguely about the Near East to amplify
its incessant Israel-bashing.
