Julia Hartley Brewer schools Just Stop Oil activist

More than 200 people have been arrested as climate change activists enter a third day of protests at oil terminals.
Just Stop Oil activist, Xandy, calls for an immediate "emergency response", but Julia asks what the alternative would be to gas and oil to heat homes.
Warwickshire Police said the force has made 54 arrests for offences including criminal damage, obstructing the highway and public order in relation to the ongoing protest at Kingsbury Oil Terminal.
In Essex, officers have arrested a total of 155 people following protests in the Thurrock district.

I am 40 years old. Climate change isn’t anything new. When I was 8, my teacher said that in 100 years, Dubrovnik and Venice would be completely under the water. This was 32 years ago, and if teacher was right, both of those towns should be 1/3 under the water, but Dubrovnik stays as it was before. Yes, Venice is sinking, because it’s build on oak planks that hold buildings…

Hi I completely agree with you. I'm 63 and I remember when I was at secondary school being told that the Maldives Isle would be lost and under water within 10 years when I was studying geography at the time.

I was told the same that Holland and Venice would be under water I'm now 56 and they're still here !!

Yep, same here. Almost 40 and I remember (as a 10-year-old) being scared to death when I first heard about Global Warming in a London Planetarium. But it hasn't happened! All the places that were supposed to be underwater by now - they're not! For God's sake, Al bloody Gore bought a beachfront villa in 2010, that was a huge red flag! And half of the 'climate science' is built on computer modelling, and we've seen how reliable that was during covid! And I was completely FOR green energy up until about 3 years ago!

When arguing with my eldest daughter and granddaughter a few months back regarding global warming.

[@kevinbartram5302]

Just in the U.K much more than 500 years ago This country was completely under water under a tropical sea. just check out how the rock quarries all over the country were apparently formed. Blows man made climate change out of the water. (Pun intended) unless these climate activists are claiming other scientists have faked the science. The next thing just explain how we have a reasonable standard of living in an "environmentally friendly" way without any oil at all would be good.
