I did that. I collect water in buckets now
I stopped taking showers.
True dat, spend the freakin bonuses on fixing the pipes. What can you really be getting a bonus for anyway, the more it rains the more of a bonus you get?
Also when will people realise the earth works in cycles, of course the planet will get gradually warmer...just as it got gradually colder in the ice age.
One more time. Global warming increases the AVERAGE temperature and - maybe more importantly - it causes the atmosphere to be more dynamic. This not only will increase the strength and frequency of storms and other turbulance, it will also change general weather patterns - some places will end up colder.
It also effects the jet stream and where it is located and how easily it moves, for instance between north of the UK and south of the UK. Thus you will find it more likely in the future that we will have a few hot days then suddenly it will be brass monkeys for a few days, just like happened over the last few weeks.
Oh - and you might find that drought periods will increase and water will all be metered and charges for it will increase substantially.
The good news is you will be forced to drink beer instead of water, so it's not all bad news.
Oh - and the beer will be made from recycled piss.
Mind you, if you have had a beer at the Emirates, you'll already know what that tastes like.
