Aunty BBC strikes another blow for sugar

I love Aunty but she is sometimes prone to dementia. :banghead:
 
Aunty is the best we have by a long distance and she is allowed to lose the plot now and then....

Aunty is obsessed with balance, though she's still not got it right with low carb yet....

Other areas too. Was recently criticed for qiving equal weight to Lawson on climate change and Minford on economics. There is no balance or equivalence between mainstream opinion and headbangers on the edge of the debate.

With Lawson, you are so right. When I did my PhD on photosynthetic algae I used a CO2 concentration of 330 ppm in the air in the early 80's.... it is now 405 ppm... we're actually screwed and they ask him for his views..... :banghead:

Actually IMHO the amount of methane is a bigger threat,as is the loss of the ozone layer, neither of which is linked to CO2. This is epitomised by the attempts to grow more trees to absorb the Co2. When a tree dies, it decays and gives off CO2, but slowly, so the net effect of trree planting is that short term it works, long term it just delays the inevitable,

What are fossil fuels? simply vegetation that has not finished decaying.
