I try and avoid all those appeals on Africa as YES those images are disturbing
I just block it out
Avoid thinking about it

I'm not saying its a good thing if they were to suffer
but rather them than me

Weeks?Have you noticed that during the past few weeks the term 'Global Warming' is being replaced by 'Climate Change'?

It's safe to say you won't be winning any humanitarian awards or even recognized as a decent human being any times soon, but you might be up for a position in the religion of self...
I think the vast majority of people, if they are truly honest, do think "I'm so glad it's not me" when hardships hit others. MadForIt's way of phrasing it was more crass than most are willing to be (in public at least) but we all have a pretty damned large amount of me me me! within us.

7. These green taxes dont go on green ventures. They go straight to Gordon Shitface to hand to the unemployed chavs and propping up the banks
5. Bring it on! Chances are we wont be around when the shit hits the fan
I agree, though it should be noted that is not a "rather them dead, than me" situation, in which such an attitude would be understandable. In his own example, it's a case of "rather they lose their land, environment and access to clean drinking water, than me having to take public transport" which makes his attitude absolutely deplorable.

Wow, talk about idiotic posts...
Since it looks like you'll be joining them soon enough, I would think you would appreciate this...
This one is my favorite though:
Classy and well thought out, bravo
How insightful...
Others just back up your self proclaimed "selfish twit" mentality.
........................You have a Masters Degree?
as BONO says, "And tonight thank god its them instead of you"
You really think Bono is celebrating the "me" mentality in this line?
we are so lucky to be where we are and dont have to face the crap they do
There is nothing wrong in that
Global warming also leads to an increase of double posts.

he (i'm assuming mfi is a guy) certainly is not at all tactful, but i'll bet his lifestyle (in regards to consumption of resources) does not differ significantly from anyone else's in this thread.
3. Its cold in the UK, a bit of warmth would be great
It doesn't rain in Melbourne anymore.....
Fair dinkum, nothing. I remember as a kid growing up in the 90's it used to rain heaps, always had to be kept inside at school cause it was raining.
This month we haven't had a drop. While it is the heart of summer, at least we used to have storms back then, a sudden downpour to fill up the dams. We don't have that anymore.
Today it is 43 degrees, yesterday it was 41, tomorrow is expected to hit 40, and the same on Saturday.
I don't recall heatwaves like this. In Adelaide, they've got like over 7 consecutive days of 40+, yesterday it was 46 over there. Unimaginable.
