Price of fuel, environmental issues, world resources and excercise?

Question

The UK is now suffering from soaring fuel prices, global warming is increasing, the amount of resources in the world are rapidly decreasing, and many countries are becoming more and more obese. My question is; can we not all cycle? After all, surely the positives outweigh the negatives?

Answer 1

Brits, bring back the famous Raleigh bike factory!

Answer 2

Cycle as in Bicycle? I do it all the time. It's a bit tricky for work,but not impossible. My next plan is for an electric bicycle,I'm as lazy as the next person. But with solar re-charging.It can be done,but with will power.

Answer 3

You've been brainwashed, my friend!

There is no global warming or shortage of fuel, it is all down to mans greed. It is a con to get more money out of us.

Things are no different now than when I was a kid in the fifties...  We had flooding, heat waves, long snowy winters, hot steamy summers and vice  a versa, water shortages and hose pipe bans...  but we were poorer then because it was just after the war and the government at that time, already had all of our money... and fuel.

Things got better over the years and, up until last Christmas, we were all fairly well off,  now this government wants to take all of our money again, so they deliberately hold back on fuel and food and make out there is a problem with global warming. I have seen it all before. I bet they don't lower taxes to help the poor and hungry (which they could easily do)... or help the people who cannot ride bikes or don't have a bike (the elderly and infirm come to mind), ...and how can service engineers, undertakers, milkmen, taxi drivers, etc., make a living from riding bicycles?

The rich are dominating the world by using the media to brain wash everyone, ...and it's working on you!

Obesity is mainly caused by over eating by greedy people who know there is no shortage of food, ...good luck to them, millions of people died in the last world war to give people their freedom to do what they want with their lives. They do not want to be dictated too by people who think they know what is best for them, ...anyway, obese people have helped the economy by buying lots of food, making money for the government.

Don't wear blinkers, learn to read between the lines when reading a newspaper or watching TV and you will soon realise there is a bigger picture to be seen, the world is full of conspiricies... try not to get succred in.
