Standard agenda being pushed again by the BBC on 09:01 - Sep 15 by Zx1988
If that 'agenda' is stating the facts about how the climate is currently heading for hell in a handcart then, yes, you're quite right.
Indeed. I suspect the OP is pushing their own agenda here — and I doubt that it’s particularly factual or evidence-based.
The Qatar World Cup was moved because of the extreme heat in the Persian Gulf. Having summer temperatures just shy of those in North America — often along with ridiculous humidity — *should* create the same level of concern for player and fan safety.

Climate crisis. It's so predictable.
Even more predictable are the sheep on this board that lap this crap up
You got evidence that its not happening, or is this just your opinion? Because there are thousands of actual scientists that can scientifically prove it is happening.

The science on this has been utterly settled for 2 decades now, yet we still have this motivated reasoning. It's basically, "I don't want to have to do anything about this, so it can't be true".
When an issue is so pervasively huge people can’t fathom the intangible consequences, let alone the globally life changing requirements necessary to change the course of the future. For many the impotence this invokes results in anger at those who make them think about the topic. The lower end of discomfort on that anger scale is to deny there is an issue and blinker themselves, with the next step up being to vocally blame those talking about the problem as if it’s the talking about it which is what’s making them angry.

When have FIFA shown any concern other than filling their pockets. They don’t give a crap about the welfare of players. Be happy to see the WC binned off to be honest whilst FIFA are happy to take money from Russia, Qatar, and Argentinain Junta etc.
I’m just waiting for the next tournament to be in Iran, China, or North Korea.

Why is it always the thickest who can see the truth that is hidden from the sheeple?
And who doesn't have the ability to even look out of their own window and note how even in our lifetime, the climate has changed for the worse. Or watch the news and see what is happening elsewhere in the world.

It is an incredibly childish mode of reasoning.

Hate to disagree with you, but I don’t think “reasoning” has anything whatsoever to do with his views here - it’s a concept totally alien to him from what I’ve seen of his posts so far!

Spot on. There is a lot of "Oh yes, we should all be worried about climate change".
"Great. That means you shouldn't fly as much, so maybe holiday in the UK a bit more..?"
