Heathrow third runway gets go-ahead
Further environmental and climate change hypocrisy…
GUARDIAN, 8 Dec 2009: The transport secretary, Geoff Hoon, gave the go-ahead to a third runway and sixth terminal at Heathrow airport today as opponents promised a decade of legal protests and direct action.
Hoon brushed off concerns over the environmental impact of the decision to announce that a third runway should be built by 2020, adding an estimated 400 flights a day at the west London site and increasing annual passenger numbers through the airport from 66 million to around 82 million.
“Doing nothing will damage our economy and will have no impact whatsoever on climate change,” he told the Commons.

Copenhagen climate summit: 140 private jets, 1,200 limos. 5 hybrids.
While the MSM gang up together to publish ‘collective editorial’ [propaganda] on how important the Copenhagen agreement will be to ‘saving the planet’ [saving the fat cats’ bonus packets], at least there’s still some sensible people out there. Apparently they’re being called ‘flat-earthers’ (typical tactic). In reality, this is the New Copernican Revolution.
DVORAK UNCENSORED, 7 Dec 2009: Ms Jorgensen reckons that between her and her rivals the total number of limos in Copenhagen next week has already broken the 1,200 barrier. The French alone rang up on Thursday and ordered another 42. “We haven’t got enough limos in the country to fulfil the demand,” she says. “We’re having to drive them in hundreds of miles from Germany and Sweden.”
And the total number of electric cars or hybrids among that number? “Five,” says Ms Jorgensen. “The government has some alternative fuel cars but the rest will be petrol or diesel. We don’t have any hybrids in Denmark, unfortunately, due to the extreme taxes on those cars. It makes no sense at all, but it’s very Danish.”
The airport says it is expecting up to 140 extra private jets during the peak period alone, so far over its capacity that the planes will have to fly off to regional airports – or to Sweden – to park, returning to Copenhagen to pick up their VIP passengers.

Crunch time for English orchards as apple sales plunge
DAILY MAIL, 22Sep09: The apple orchards of Britain are under threat as sales of the fruit decline, growers and conservationists claim.
Figures show consumption fell by 3.2 per cent last year to 501million kilos, or 1,104million pounds. That is the equivalent of around 100million apples being left on the ground to rot.
The drop in sales comes despite efforts by the Government to encourage us to eat five portions of fruit or vegetables a day.It could also spell disaster for historic orchards producing both apples and pears, which are already under threat from cheap, often tasteless, imports.
