Mental. Your obnoxious sprog is just another stupid Canute *-) ........... No single person, country or all the countries on this planet can stop climate change :-| ....... We have to adapt ;-) ........ Have you not read up on it? No of course you haven't. We can stop it or at least reduce it. If we dont and it reaches tipping point then we are basically fcuked. Doing nothing is simply not an option. Another "then we are basically fcuked" to add to Brexit , POTUS Trump , Tory Government then according to you the voice of doom and gloom ... if one aint guna get us the others will ... "Doing nothing is simply not an option" as I drive off for 6 months polluting the environment "doing nothing" Like I said motorhoming is probably greener than normal living. Say your running a house with heating, cooking, cleaning, using loads of leccy, driving the kids to school, going shopping and all the stuff thats needed to run a home, it all adds up but how does that compare to living in a motorhome? Ok so your running an engine between stops so its not ideal but when your parked up you can be really green and we as I have told you do tend to park up for long periods and between April and October require no electricity whatsoever from the grid. Scooter is practically emissions free! So which is greener? You don't heat the motorhome then , don't cook , defo don't clean , don't go shopping on top of driving around for 6 months of the year and then on top of that drive around on an old scooter struggling away with 2 of you on it ??? ... Ye your really green aren't ya and thats not taking into account when your then home for the other 6 months still on ya scooter and in your old motor ... Hypocrite It's a dam site greener and easier to heat a motorhome than a 250 year old large stone built house. We don't go shopping or site seeing in the van we use the scooter which isn't old. It's a modern Honda 110cc frugal engine. Honda are renowned for making clean reliable engines Of course when we are home we are the same as most people but my argument which is not remotely scientific is our style of motorhoming I think is probably much greener that the average couple or family living normal lives at home. As for cleaning. You could eat your dinner off the floor of our van, Mrs D is a clean and tidy freak but again you need less materials than you do in a house. Motorhoming I argue is therefore greener than house dwelling. Probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dykes and channels have been dredged in some coastal areas. Instead of sea defences they are allowing low lying land to become tidal salt water flats. Also flooding has occurred inland because waterways have become weed infested and choked with silt, hindering swift drainage to the major rivers and on to the sea.

jumpstart Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 That doesn’t help all the low lying ares that don’t have waterways. Just look up world wide maps that show what land is left after a 1m sea level rise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dykes and channels have been dredged in some coastal areas. Instead of sea defences they are allowing low lying land to become tidal salt water flats. Also flooding has occurred inland because waterways have become weed infested and choked with silt, hindering swift drainage to the major rivers and on to the sea. Indeed, but neither offers a defence against rising sea levels, as Dave was suggesting. Those measures might help reduce some river flooding, by allowing water surges to spread over a greater area, or to enhance drainage where obstructed waterways cause upstream flooding, but rising sea levels effectively raise the mouth of the river and when that rises in level, the water won't flow uphill. So, the tidal reach of the river will extend further inland whatever the level of its bed, leading to greater flooding further upstream than previously, and permanent inundation of areas that previously only flooded with spring tides.

The more immediate problem is not countries getting " dry " - it's low lying islands being covered by seawater. .It seems that in places like the Maldives, Seychelles etc the encroaching sea in getting into their groundwater supplies and contaminating their drinking water with sea water. We could pass on to them Daves tips about dredging, sandbags etc - but I doubt it will be much use to them. :-| Seeing as we can pipe gas all the way from Russia to all over Europe ;-) ......... I doubt its impossible to do the same with fresh water :-| ......... Just as I doubt building homes like the Dutch that go up and down with the tide is impossible *-) ....... What IS impossible is thinking we can stop climate change 8-) ......... Why do you keep all this expertise to yourself - or only post it on a motorhome forum ? Why not do the right thing and contact the governments of the threatened islands direct ? :-| p.s. They will, of course want to know where to pipe the drinking water from. Pelmet is undoubtedly a leading "expert" in plumbing......i've lost count of the number of jobs he claims to be "qualified" in! (lol) I imagine some countries where water is scarce, particularly drinking, ship bottled in by the truck load and in a few countries it's probably wiser if drinking water isn't properly purified. Hes no more an expert at plumbing than you are at superior German building methods that you know nothing about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
