Do you aye, class that you spent your time looking. There is probably different lists but Make Analysts has us dropping from 8th in the world to 12 and around 2% of global manufacturing goods, which they blame on brexit. Regardless if it's 2% like they say or dropped lowe it'll definitely be above 0.85% of our world population.Quote:

"Part of the UK's drop from the top ten is down to positive manufacturing growth in other countries.
China, the US, Japan and Germany continue to dominate, accounting for 55% of world manufacturing output while the UK accounts only for 2%.
Manufacturers in these four nations are ramping up investment in industrial robots, AI, automation and electric vehicles, with strong governmental support and investment"
Al the above just accounts for goods UK is now the world's 4th largest exporter due to our service industry being massive. There is Co2 linked to the service sector, from the use through tourism, banking and technical services which all use power. Whilst brexit is affecting goods badly the service sector is flying and as a service nation that's what probably is keeping us in growth

Services trade sees UK become world’s fourth largest exporter
Miles Celic, CEO of TheCityUK, said the news was “very encouraging”, adding: “The UK’s strong export performance has been supercharged by services generally and the financial and related professional services industry in particular.
“Britain is the largest net exporter of financial services in the world, and the second largest exporter of financial services overall, behind only the US.
“The industry is an enormous national advantage for the UK and one that generates jobs and drives growth across the country.”
Labour have given them the nod with the carbon capture nonsense.Quote:

not sure if the floods in Valencia are attributable to climate change but this was the aftermath in one part this morning
https://scontent.fman1-2.fna.fbcdn.n...Rg&oe=67281BD5
They received 343mm of rainfall in 4 hours. That's absolutely not 'normal' and most likely attributable.Quote:

They are fine, quite a bit further south of valencia. Apparently roasting sunshine.Quote:

There was a devastating flood in Valencia 1957. That was before climate change though. Not sure what the scientists attributed that flood to?
Also a big one even further back, in Noah's time. I don't think The Scientists are claiming that floods never happened before, rather that they are becoming more frequent.Quote:

There's records that go back much longer but the use other factors like geology to back up scientific findings. I wouldn't ask for someone on here or any form of social media to give you the information. I'd go to scientist that have studied it for decades, 99% will agree and back it up with data that the world has seen an unprecedented heating. This heating brings higher rainfall, therfore more floods. I'd say the evidence is so clear that only people who havent tried to look at a range of scientific sources wouldn't believe in man made climate change.Quote:

I'm on my phone so can't do the copy/paste of relevant papers and links, but look up the scientific discipline of palaeolimnology. Search for articles that use sediment deposition, isotopic proxies to measure changing flood frequencies.Quote:

Well we have had a few ice ages thrown in there too so not much flood data there. Plenty of evidence of glacial erosion. Oh and the fact that the ice and permafrost is the lowest levels in human history.Quote:

I've just gone ahead with solar panels and battery storage. Expect to have them fitted in February or March.
We've had ours for a few yearsQuote:
