Green taxes?

 

Newest Review: ... care home in Britain at some point. Once you get over 80 you are a drain on resources and ushered on your way. 90% of your contribution to the NHS through National Insurance is spent on the last 6 weeks of your life. You come into the world in a pile of fluids and go out that way. It happened with my dad and we were pressured to sign his life away. The point here is that because life is so precious then we need to have more people to look after the elderly and so the population always increases with those green house gases, those young people getting old, putting more strain on resources once again. People are ranting and raving over the g... more

I think we would all agree that over population is the principal reason for the increase in greenhouse gases and not so much selfish human activity, unless you count having more than two children selfish. Either way no one can or will stop people having children so we have to collectively accept the consequences and stop worrying about global warming and ride it out, enjoying warmer English winters in the process, if and when they ever happen. Electric cars that go 40 miles before a five hour charge up are not going to save the world and nor is less packaging on your fruit. Is it not coal powered plants that create that electricity that charge those batteries? And I ...  Read the complete review

Green Taxes Titled: Final MELTDOWN ------------------------------ There is one matter that we cannot control apart from Sir Fred Goodwin's pension, and that is climate change. It is shocking that over the last 25 years we have now a generation that has been aware of global warming and CO2 emissions, and yet have not clamped down on the corporate giant perpetrators, by introducing green taxes half a century ago. If Westminster imposed this tax the UK would be leading the world in climate change and the US would have been forced to tow the line also. Yet we have wasted time. Time we cannot afford to lose. Our politicians have been bathing in wealth from the ...  Read the complete review

Well to speak of how we became un-green is not a reversible process now.And what we got to stress from now on is how could we stop the process of becoming un-green Step 1 Reduce the vehicular emission. We have been using carbon fossil fuels from many decades, this has not only casued air pollution but also degraded natural resources. The green cover has been uprooted and mankind has displayed how cruel it is to the mother nature. Lighten the car load that we travel.please do not carry unnecessary load in your car. Step 2 Reduce the usage of unwanted industrialized products Products such as usage of polythene bags which we ...  Read the complete review

Brown will exploit global warming when he introduces green taxes. UK makes little impact on global warming. Big boys are in Asia and in USA. I don't want green taxes it is a con making people think they are doing something for the environment when they are not and in the process taking their money to spend on things which have nothing to do with savig the planet. Lot of people will be willing to pay green taxes so they feel good. I don't because it is money I can't afford to lose. The global warming is a lost war, too much damage has been done in the past. Global warming won't have much bearing on this island, I am enjoying the ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Green taxes?: Flavour Of The Month (596 words)

As we enter November it appears that the hot topic of the month is the environment, climate change, global warming and people who drive 4x4 vehicles. Next month it’ll be something else, and then the month after it will another thing. I suppose it’s the government’s way of diverting everyone’s attention away from the other things going on. Now don’t get me wrong, I am all for saving energy and being more resourceful. However I feel that those in power have been very pro-active in offering solutions but have skirted over some of the other issues that go hand in hand. Green Taxes is all very well and good but we are living in a country where it now ...  Read the complete review
