The answer to global warming? Put contraceptives in the water
Richmaur Brier Hey Lane Mytholmroyd
Lord Stern is advocating yet another crazy idea, that we all stop eating meat because the animals produce too much methane which is damaging the ozone layer.
Last week I went to Colne, and all the windmills were stopped. Thank goodness we don't rely on them to keep the lights on.
The reason for global warming is that the world's population is increasing at an unsustainable rate. It is estimated that the UK population will increase from 60 million to 70 million by 2020.
Obviously, TV has lost its appeal, so I propose we put contraceptives in the water. No doubt the global-warming enthusiasts will consider this to be a crazy idea. But at least it would work.
