It's been how many years working on emissions? Has the warming reversed? Or even slowed? Seriously, is enough emissions reduction really going to happen?

You are wringing your hands, writing about traffic jams, meanwhile more and more cities of the world are gridlock. Admit it, emissions reduction is too hard, too expensive, too slow. You don't have to give up on it altogether, just do something in addition or have a backup plan.

Global warming is going gangbusters, we want to reverse it. So far we are attempting one thing only to reverse it, and that is emissions reduction.

It is plain to see that it is not working, is not going to work. That is reality.

Maybe, just maybe, it is time to do a second and maybe a third thing to cool the climate? Or at very least do some research into alternatives to reducing emissions.

Maybe you should park your car in the garage. But I am led to believe this is against American culture?

Accuracy does not matter. Legality does not matter. The cameras and the data they gather are unconstitutional - end of story.

SCOTUS has abandoned us to the Leviathan, so do your jury duty.

Who says California is not conservative?

Finland's last landline call has been made as the Nordic country becomes the latest to retire copper-wire phones in favour of fibre.

Finland on Tuesday pulled the plug on analogue landline phone calls after almost 150 years, the latest country to push forward in a global transition towards digital infrastructure.

Estonia, the Netherlands, Norway and Spain have already made the jump as countries across the world roll out fibre optic cable that can handle both internet services and voice calls.

The thing about Australia is not that it is a nation descended from convicts. It is a nation built entirely by prison warders.
