Don't wish to be the harbinger of doom but...

...it's already started. Just an ordinary day in the news with a headline 'mentioning' that 20 million (not thousand) people had been 'displaced' by floods in South East Asia. Now, last month 50,000 people had their water cut off and 2 people died in England and it was the main story for a week, yet 20 MILLION slips by almost unnoticed. This is one of many warning signs that global weather patterns are changing - and the reason for this is us, the billions of us pumping out shit into the atmosphere - and it's going to get far worse.

If I were you, I'd get some savings together, and I'd move to higher ground. Stats tell us that of the 3.5 million new homes recently and to be built in Britain, 2 million of them will be in unprotected flood areas of the future. This is how totally whacked this all is. Meanwhile, more people in Britain watched the Diana memorial concert than Live Earth. We are truly lost, and the stupid thing is, if we opened our eyes a little we could see it coming and do something about it.
