A proposal to stop labelling carbon dioxide as a pollutant and instead celebrate it as a "foundational nutrient for all life on Earth” will be up for debate at the United Conservative Party’s annual general meeting in November.
There’s already been a vetting process to weed out some resolutions, but this one made it through, which suggests “someone in the party thinks that this is worth debating,” Young said.
“I think this reminds us that the base of the UCP is host to a pretty substantial group of people who do not believe that climate change is real, or they don’t believe that it is driven by human activity, and they think that any actions taken to transition away from fossil fuels are unnecessary.”
Blaming individuals for what is a systemic failure could make them less receptive to change.

I generally don’t correct grammar until I’m already annoyed. But once someone is a silly, well, as the Emperor urged, I give into my anger.

And that’s not the fault of individuals, but of a failing education system.
