Over hundreds of years the earth has fluctuated in its temperatures, just take the ice age for instance, there's no telling we could go back to those times. Lets say yes, we have concrete evidence that the environment is suffering, so why haven't the govt done anything concrete concerning the environment? Think back only to the year 1947, ok technology was not so good then, but many inventions have been thrown upon us since then. Back in the Victorian times we recycled literally everything, waste from the toilets were placed on the vegetable patch, old rags were re-stitched for their high-tech rugs and pig sty's next to the outside loo, food for thought; I will leave you with these thoughts. Nearer time, just only 8 years ago, just after the drought of the year 2000, rationed water and hose pipe bans to boot. I remember the water table being the lowest for 8 years, even then we were blaming global warming and with the media and govt predicting desert like areas, down came the rain and the heavens opened followed by the serious floods. Could we have saved all this water I ask,
