Can there be anymore massive a Red Flag than "Experts Say", "Scientists Warn" or "Environmentalists state"?
Of course not. It's all bollocks and is often accompanied with weasel words like "Could" "Might" "Opinion" - it's headline grabbing deflection and generally is to be ignored as it doesn't move anything on, it's packed with assumptions and generally based on computer models and adjusted data.
Start reading things with the actual data produced where you can go and verify it yourself. Just one example was a recent one about Polar Bears and someone getting upset that they have licences available to cull certain Bears. BUT THE BEARS ARE ENDANGERED you hear them cry. Go look at the data and you'll see that some populations may indeed be, but others are thriving. You need to go beyond the headline and see through the tugging at your heart strings.
We have a problem with Deer that no one appears to be addressing because they are all like Bambi and no one wants to harm them, they're cute. Mmmm, tell that to the farmers and land owners and you might be surprised. If you've ever hit one in your car then you might also realise what a danger they are that way too. I don't expect the townies to realise, they don't live with them but the population is out of hand and they need to be controlled. So many do gooders live in the cities and I'm sure if they lived out here they might actually appreciate the problems we have.
These well intentioned, but generally badly informed, people know what's good for us and have a full conviction that they are right and we are not. There's no room for discussion about it. They actually ruin the countryside that they don't live in and are pretty much ignorant about how we live.
Anyway, experts eh? God preserve us from these "elites" and let us just get on with our lives free from these people.
