I'm not convinced that humans are responsible for "Global Warming". I *do* however believe in global warming, 'cos that's something that's a fact, the planet is getting warmer. It's good to make machines which are cleaner and more efficient too, of course, but the rest of it is something to give tree huggers an excuse to not work, and a cash cow for some governments who tax things based on emissions.
People love to moan about how smokers cost the NHS a lot. We do cost them a lot, but the amount we pay in tax is huge in comparison.
In fact, tying in with both the above, if we actually did listen to the government and took it to an extreme by stopping smoking, stop drinking alcohol and stopped driving, the UK government would *SHIT* itself, guaranteed.
