50 years of predictions that the climate apocalypse is nigh
For the past two weeks in Glasgow, Scotland, world leaders have gathered at COP 26, the United Nations Climate Change Conference, to listen to the same message: Disaster is just around the corner.
Does it matter how old the article is if true?
One of the advantages of being 'long of tooth' is having lived during what is now history. This opinion piece in this right-wing tabloid is misleading. The environmental issues in the 1970's was planet pollution (chemical, nuclear, industrial, etc) not planet warming. It was Nixon who started the Environmental Protection Agency in the US in 1970. Yes, environmental catastrophe was averted because significant actions were taken to address pollution.Good article.

I remember being in Jr high and hearing of an up coming ice age, I have also lived through this.
Environmental pollution was a real issue in the mid to late 20th century. A burgeoning ice age not so much to put it charitably.
Again I will say this, yes the climate is changing it is expected with the population increase. And no, there is no emergency to stop it now. Things like a carbon tax or requiring people to go EV will not alter what the climate is doing. Common sense should tell you that.
Agree to disagree. Strongly disagree. There is a planet warming emergency that requires immediate actions today. We can mitigate this crisis if we take steps to do so and not ignore this climate reality.
Again things are being done but a 3 - 7 year delay will not cause a catastrophic doom to the world but it will most likely assist in saving our economy.
Nobody likes the word 'tax', but it was my understanding that 90% of the money collected was being returned to households and 10% to businesses. So there's that.
You actually believe that?
You really do believe everything the government tells including about covid mandates and vaccines. Use some critical thinking here please. If 90% of taxes collected are really returned then why collect in the first place? Does not make any sense. The reality is the money is being used by politicians like Trudeau to live a life of luxury while he makes everything for ppl living paycheck to paycheck even more expensive. Also every April the carbon tax goes up, all MPs in parliament get a big pay raise while ppl struggling to pay bills got to pay more for everything. That is a big slap in the face. See the scam here.
What I post is what I believe so please refrain from opining about what you think I believe. The carbon tax was created to encourage energy producers and users to move away from carbon-based fuels. There is no evidence to support your outrageous allegations about the PM and MPs. Please stick to facts and evidence and not your wild, unfounded imagination.
You are dodging. I stated facts. So I ask again if households get 90% of the carbon taxes back then why collect in the first place? And I posted many times data from the Canadian Federal government website and facts prove the carbon tax had no affect on reducing carbon emissions.

Climate change is one of the most important environmental issues of our time. Climate change is caused by the increase in concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

You say energy producers move away from carbon fuel but that is also false. They just pass on the cost to the customer as we seen how everything is costing more including heating your home. Why does Volkswagen need a $13 billion subsidy to build a battery factory if carbon taxes are so effective?
Volkswagen cuts EV output in Germany as demand craters
Volkswagen is curbing production of electric vehicles at 2 German plants due to falling demand and shrinking government subsidies. Read on.
Volkswagen is cutting EV production as demand craters. Demand stays up so long as taxpayers money is being funnelled. Green tech is on life support. You cannot tax a nation to prosperity. How much more facts do you
For once I agree with you. I too will continue to post facts and challenge far-left propaganda about the climate change hoax.
