So pleased for you Sandy, and for Environmental Coffeehouse, as if there was any doubt you’d been wrongfully accused. The question is will you trust YouTube again.

And just a point, should I be ditching Twitch then🤔

He said even less about his posting to Burma and fighting the Japanese. But amongst his medals was the Burma Star.

He hated the Japanese, he gave me this book👇. He was not happy about my buying Japanese manufactured products, but had no qualms about my buying German ones🤔

At the beginning of the war father was with BEF at St Nazaire "The Forgotten Evacuation". He was due to board Lancastria but it was bombed and sank in sight, he boarded SS Oronsay also bombed but he an it survived.

Later in the war he was posted to Burma👇

Insurance Co’s actions reflect the reality of anthropogenic global heating (AGH), driven by hard data and financial necessity, not greed. Their withdrawals and premium hikes mirror the escalating risks of floods and fires, directly undermining AGH denialist claims🤔

I’m not into horses ‘Zuthal’, though the skills of stable groom, farrier or blacksmith could well be priceless in the future.

“WHY ARE WE STILL BURNING HYDROCARBONS?”

A good question, which this book goes a long way in answering 👇, obtain yourself a copy, but not if you’re into wishful thinking🤔

…these ideals could be limited to pockets of resilience, with broader society struggling against fear, scarcity, and division. The future would hinge on how effectively these principles are taught and practiced before and during the collapse.

Or through chaos and anarchy turn into this👇🤔

Ever wondered ‘Green Living’ what might to happen if lights go out, trucks stop running and mental institution’s and prison’s wardens and officers leave their duties in search of food and survival, leaving some of the worst of humanity to fend for themselves. “Hell is the truth seen too late”👇🤔

Think you’ll find Kythra it’ll turn out to be nearer a renewed interest in Nuclear, rather than a Nuclear Renaissance.

So just a reminder of the Nuclear Energy mountain to climb👇🤔

The Jem Bendell paper "Deep Adaptation" Originally Published July 27th 2018. Revised 2nd Edition Released July 27th 2020 to which you refer Bill Atkinson, confirms my comment. We’re now c5 years on and Population, Energy, CO2 (pollution) have only continued going one way..

We (Humanity) though we don’t like to think so, act like sheep, if those around us don’t mention or act in response to climate change in numbers that are noticeable to us, then we don’t react, and so yes in the end, people will suffer. Cont’d👇)

Don’t want to give too much away of “An American Famine” ‘Buddysystem’, but when trucks stop running food rapidly disappears especially in urban areas. Ask yourself what happens to high security prisons and mental institutions when warden’s and officers start to abandon them🤔

‘#9 Dream’: Masking is dependent upon mask type, most just give the wearer and those around a false of security from infection. Even in the case of coronavirus (SARS‐CoV)‐1 and SARS‐CoV‐2, N95 use only decreased viral infection by 17% compared with wearing a surgical mask. ‘Twitter’, note date👇🤔

Not sure ‘#9 Dream’ if that’s meant to inform or frighten us, but whatever who’s to say some billionaire tech/bio bros with their own fully facilitated bio lab doesn’t decide there’re just just too many humans to for a sustainable planet so decides to cull us😮🤔

I did say “likes of” Anatta, but whatever they all require vast amounts of energy to maintain those essential goods and services for anything like a modern civilisation. Just a reminder of energy slaves, and couple of books you might like to check out👇🤔

Leaving grief behind by planning for the future is difficult Gwen, when you don’t know what the future has in store. If it’s concern about surviving the coming collapse then read Kurt Dahl’s “An American Famine” to learn what humans will do to survive and protect themselves and loved ones🤔

My sincere apologies Seren, I hadn’t coupled first part with the second, I put it down to much Sun and a senior moment, must pay more attention🤔, please for give me🙏

This is the restriction I’m under ”i-don’t-like-AI”. My family and friends know I’m an Ecological Doomist and know my views. I’m not allowed to tell any of the children, that is unless they ask.

And of course those of us breeders are really the ones to blame👇🤔
July 9, 2025 at 7:18 PM
Don’t know how much you know Seren of Lyle Lewis @race2extinct.bsky.social but he’s written a great book (yes,I have a copy) 👇which you may find offers you some solace, but I’m afraid when it comes to ecology and the environment my Doomist view is humanity is F❤️cked🤔

And then Jim, there’s Abiogenic Oil as hypothesised by distinguished Austrian-born American astrophysicist Thomas Gold (1920-2004) with his notable academic and scientific career. Just saying👇🤔

Wendy, Cunt (Germanic kuntō) a vulgar word for the vulva in its primary sense, the word used in a variety of ways, including as a term of disparagement. Cunt’s used to be useful, but now they’re one of humanity’s primary problems, the other’s the penis👇🤔

Sorry you’re leaving Vegi. It’s been fun perusing your output of some 13 years, that’s not far off how long YouTube’s been around, you deserve a medal.

In the meantime Vegi I’ll leave you with this in the off chance you realise there’s still plenty for you to do: youtu.be/OvfkyppvCQI?... 🤔

It does, but ever wondered why Ireland has so few trees🤔

A friend in need is a friend indeed. China borders Russia and they’re an exporter of food, so you scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours, as they say🤔

Good idea Eliot, a go to source of Doom Quotes🤔

A Doomer that’s hard to engage in comments with hmm🤔
Thomas Hobbes - Hell is the truth seen too late”. This is the opening quote to Kurt Dahl’s “An American Famine - (subtitle) A Rosetta Stone for the coming collapse” A glimpse into a horrific future, not a book for those of a nervous disposition👇🤔
