I'm still looking for that TV program from a decade or more ago where a "scientist" was examining four ice cores from Greenland. Three showed, conclusively, that raised CO2 trailed an increase in temperature by around 300 to 500 years and did not precede it; the fourth was ambiguous on the point. Obviously intent on keeping the grant money flowing, the "scientist" proclaimed that the fourth core absolute confirmed that raised CO2 caused Global warming. Puzzled by his claim, the interviewer questioned his conclusion - this being met by an embarrassed look - and silence. As the programme was probably by the BBC, it will have been destroyed....(03-01-2021, 01:09 PM)Tony Betts Wrote: and yes i agree we should use less paper.

On the contrary, young trees are grown for paper as a crop; reduce paper usage and we will have fewer trees absorbing that dreadful carbon dioxide (without which the planet cannot survive).
