If you have a good enough recipe it's extremely difficult to tell the difference.

Went to a lot of mock meat restaurants in SE Asia and I can only say my mind was blown.

That stuff is fartalotus! Are you sure it's the cows and not SE Asia? How many cubic meters of methane do you get from a 300g mock rump? ;)

Nuclear power is the future. The technology is not close to maturity and has been kneecapped by overzealous environmentalists.

Even global warming expert, Greta Thuberg, sees the writing on the wall.


Nope.

The fact that decommissioning nuclear power stations and burning coal instead is a bad idea does not mean nuclear power is the future.

David Attenborough, the propagandist.

The documentary attributes blame to the private sector of the economy; the desire to increase profits leads to a disregard for the natural environment. Suggested solutions include retrofitting improved technologies to buildings, moving to solar energy and other renewable energy, reducing food waste, maintaining land conservation or producing meat or dairy more sustainably. Attenborough revisits the East African Virunga Mountains, where he interacted with mountain gorillas for his documentary series Life on Earth (1979). At the time, there were an estimated 250 mountain gorillas. Action taken by the Rwandan government to develop agriculture and use money from tourism to pay for rangers and conservation has led to a growth in the population to 1000 mountain gorillas. Attenborough ends on a hopeful message that positive change can be achieved.

Let the government tax people and they will change the weather or something like that.

It is outright propaganda. Let have a look at a government free from the evils of the private sector, like China, and see how they are doing. You know since the government is the perfect entity to do everything:

Anyone who talks about the evils of overpopulation should be very specific of who they don't want to be born.

And where exactly did Attenborough say that?

Calling David Attenborough a propagandist based on some BS strawman argument must be one of the more bizarre things I've seen on this forum.

Would be fun to hear Attenborough describe the behavior of the ignoramuses on this thread.

Attenborough reeks of propaganda. A really good speaking voice for example can do wonders to get people to believe whatever he says. Just listen to his dulcet tones and believe everything he says.

David Attenborough knows everything. Just listen to him! He cannot be wrong! How can someone who speaks so well and so eloquently be incorrect? You must listen to David Attenborough. David Attenborough can solve all the problems in the world. David Attenborough even knows how to fix failing marriages. David Attenborough is so clever that he can square the circle and fix Jonny Depp's disastrous marriage. I have pictures of David Attenborough above my bed that my wife and I use for sexual stimulation. David Attenborough is love. David Attenborough is life.

More strawman BS?

I'd say you can do better but we both know that's not true. :confused:

You literally argued that Attenborough was any sort of authority on anything to do with climate change.

You didn't reference the scientists that support the theory and backed it up with objective and verifiable evidence. You referenced the guy that told a nice story with pretty pictures and a smooth calming voice and expected me to view him as some sort of authority on this.

It isn't even a proper appeal to authority fallacy, it is an appeal to propaganda.

Where?

What theory?

What planet are you on?

You're just imagining that I said a bunch of stuff which I never did.

Maybe it's time to stop listening to those voices in your head.

All I said was the claim that Attenborough is a propagandist is horseshit.
