"Bob Hobden" contains these words:

The root cause of CO2 is population, so why are we in this Country still
paying people to have children? ( the Chinese alone are doing something
about this and should be applauded)

Hardly! The Chinese policy has led to the killing of many unwanted
girl children. Within one generation,
it has led to a serious social imbalance (too many males, not enough
partners for them); and there is also concern, among the
Chinese, for the future social consequences of so many only-child males
who have been spoiled rotten and brought up to
think they are the centre of the universe.

That is because the Chinese, like a lot of countries believe that male
heirs are the most important thing in their lives and they will just have
to get over it or die out. Certainly, as it's going, there will be an even
bigger reduction in people in China as there simply won't be the ladies to
have the next generation. All good stuff for the environment IMO.
As for spoiling their male heirs rotten and bringing them up like Gods,
happens already with a number of peoples, Chinese, Indians, even some
ethnic English families do it. Obviously a throwback but people will get
over it eventually, they will have to.
So often when I was at work the Indian ladies would say, "my husband does
nothing in the house", to which I would reply "so what are you teaching
your son and making him do? Ironing? Cooking? Cleaning? etc".
To a person they just continued to perpetuate the problem.

If it's getting warmer in this country, why do so many pensioners die of
hyperthermia?

I'm sure you meant hypothermia, didn't you?

There is a difference you know
