It will take a major global climatic event to change anything. Such as a major drought. Or forest fires that block out the sun for months at a time.
current level of CO2 is 415ppm.
Driving on motorways, I reckon it can be double that.
Over 2000ppm, some old people may die. Possibly a blessing!


250-350ppmNormal background concentration in outdoor ambient air
350-1,000ppmConcentrations typical of occupied indoor spaces with good air exchange
1,000-2,000ppmComplaints of drowsiness and poor air.
2,000-5,000 ppmHeadaches, sleepiness and stagnant, stale, stuffy air. Poor concentration, loss of attention, increased heart rate and slight nausea may also be present.
5,000Workplace exposure limit (as 8-hour TWA) in most jurisdictions.
>40,000 ppmExposure may lead to serious oxygen deprivation resulting in permanent brain damage, coma, even death.

reports suggest that level of atmospheric CO2 has gone up 20% in the last 5 years. That geometric progression will kill us all in maybe less than a century.
Justice at last, why should only a few of us die shortly? We're in the age of equality after all so we should all go together.

With all that lovely CO2 it will be the age of the grasses. No longer oppressed and imprisoned to be savagely cut down and eaten, they'll have an idyllic future. Not so most of the rest of the plants though, unless they work out a new way to get pollinated.

Looks like a recall is necessary. That's going to spoil a few impromptu holidays.

I've got some large bills to pay this week.
The Pound rose sharply on the news, it did put a smile on my face!

So my understanding is the queen can now kick Johnson in the taint till he starts crying or she does.

Momentous stuff.

I think the queen and her advisors were complicit. Fortunately we still have the likes of lady hale, who seem the kind of sweet granny who would tell both in no uncertain terms where they are getting off

I'm happy. I insisted in here, like many, that Johnson's prorogue was illegal on the grounds that its true improper purpose was frustrating parliament, so it's good for us to be proved right.

I am particularly pleased that it was 11-nil. A more even balance might have been claimed to give some support. A whitewash is what I hoped for.

I had expected a more nuanced response, but am delighted to see the clarity of the judgement. It would be difficult to see how the cabinet surviving this.
