Bill, you could show the sort of moral leadership Connie Headguard dreams the EU (in receivership) can exercise by disowning your worldly possessions (internet connected PC included), turning your back on the comforts of civilised life and adopting a ‘low footprint’ feral existence somewhere properly wild. Show your commitment to the cause by taking your kids with you.
Greenland is still mostly wild, it’s one of the poster children the cause warns us is being destroyed and you’d be conveniently located to join the unwashed minions at future ‘no-arctic drilling’ protests.
If you’re unprepared to do that, but are prepared to waste energy running a PC for the purpose of moaning about reducing energy availability by 40% then I’m afraid you’re talking out of your greenhouse gas vent old son.

What makes you think, PG_Bill, that whatever the EU (representing barely 10% of global emissions) might do would make any serious difference? The so-called “developing economies” (65% of emissions) made it clear at the UN conference at Warsaw last November that they had no intention of signing up to binding cuts. Nor will the USA (14%). Nor, it seems, will Canada, Japan, Russia and probably Australia (in total 10%). In practice, there’s only the EU left.

Or do you take the Hedegaard line that the EU is exercising leadership to the rest of the world? But these days the rest of the world isn’t very interested in what the EU may or may not do. To pretend otherwise is, I fear, embarrassing, patronising, neo-colonial, out-dated “White Man’s burden” nonsense. Sad really.
