It’s hot

So easy to tell who reads the Daily Mail based on their posts on here.

I'm not - I am resigned to the inevitable now - there is nothing realistically that can be done now - its worth considering how the whole world is being played by big business

Very true, big business and spineless politicians have a lot to answer to.

You don't think Big business has too much say in policy decisions in Western nations? Serious question Alan.

Not as much as you’d like, no.

There is no groundswell to ignore climate changes, save for the far right parties.

If we hit the hottest temperatures since records began then I’d say it is pretty newsworthy.

In terms of personal responsibility, I get that but then others do have to think about collective responsibility too. Services always come under pressure in situations like this, be it from increased admissions from people with heatstroke, idiots going swimming where they shouldn’t, fire services stretched due to people having bbqs on ground that’s just one big tinder. All of them then have an impact on shifting resources to what could have been unnecessary, from dealing with unavoidable emergencies.

If you’re sensible and capable of applying common sense, brilliant. Some of the messaging and the fear aspect of it in particular isn’t for you, ignore it. If it stops even a few idiots and means that services are there for if you do have an emergency yourself, then it’s worth it.

If you're on the side of the Daily Mail with their horrible ignorant views then you're probably on the wrong side

They really aren’t.

They aren’t saying stay at home at all times or you’ll die.

Theyre explaining to people that they need to keep hydrated and limit their time in the sun during the hottest hours of the day.

Check on the elderly, infirm and vulnerable etc.

If that saves one life, has it been worth it or should all these people fend for themselves and have personal responsibility when they don’t understand the meaning of it?

they shouldn't be reporting melting runways causing cancellations

just let people turn up to airports and find out themselves, f'kin nanny state!

OK Tbh I'm pretty biased in my views on big business, which stems from their ability to always pay less tax than the rest of us and small and medium businesses. So I would take some convincing they don't have a say in policy decisions regarding climate change.
