If the economy is stuffed your kids won't have a country to live in so global warming warming will be the least of our problems. If you read what I said there has to be a balance. So please discuss with some foresight this time.

Any reduction in emissions is good. Starting small is the ONLY way you're ever goign to get anywhere in something of this magnitude.

Well if big things start from small things I think you should do your bit and give up your petrol vehicles, motorsport, power-sucking electrical gadgets, plasma TVs then. It's only fair you back up your own beliefs or isn't it important enough for you to give up these things.

there is more than life to R/C (believe it or not)... and one thread topical to a reasonable number of people is hardly going to dilute r/ctech to the point where r/c takes a back seat

if you dont like it ... dont read it, if you dont like it and do read it dont post 'stupid' off topic posts otherwise the thread will be moderated ... your posts will be removed

however to the punters who like to comment it is a fair point to make regarding profanities... there are many words in the language to describe a range of situations, choose one other than a profanity to get your point across

Absolutely agree - having those things is hypocritical of me, and I said that in my original post. But if we could use those elctronics with clean(er?) power, and I could use my hydrogen car, surely that's a long term workable solution, and should be our aim.

There's no point in having an economy if you don't have a livable world to have one in

But yes.... RC...

Agree but theres also no point in having a liveable world with no economy.

Now if only we can get these politicians to give us money for our hobby.

Also start saving to buy cheap houses its interest rates are almost set to hit a 15 year high!

Agreed, scary times ahead.
I believe Labor will hold office for one term, the libs will be back in 2010.

Gee, glad you thought about it
