Do you believe in climate change?
(Thinking bits in italics )
Minister : Yes I do-- everybody does.
so what else about climate change do you want to know ?
He's thinking
The correct answer is that I am not here to tell you what I think ------but what the party thinks
If you were to ask me
---whether I believe that AGW is changing the climate my answer is
I don't know ............ Normal now but never stated
Interviewer
What would you do to stop climate change ?
Min Exactly what the opposition says they are going to do----- only we would do it better .
The opposition don't know what to do either . By me drawing attention to them they will be forced to dream up some new scheme which stinks with the credibility of quick fix desperation. tokenism ,big industry bashing and skating on ice superficiality
Interviewer
thinking to herself
--The numbers of people who are worried that we are ignoring the risk of climate change is diminishing -this worries those who push for CC .
--A growing number are sceptical that we should or could do something .If so whats so ,Silence on this is now deafening . Noone is really talking real actions - just waving the party wand and the stick at the opposition , coal or something that kicks big business . .
I met that rare person yesterday who asked whether I trust politicians to do the impossible ,to use my money to do miracles with those who must be coerced ?
He asked whether i was cloned with them ; those who believe they are god like.
Got me thinking ; first about them - then myself .
