Loathe as I am to agree with you about anything, diversity targets are bullshit.
They were talking about that at work, quotas in the Senior Leadership Team. I call bullshit on that.
Positive discrimination is an oxymoron.
Don’t give me the job because I’m the white heterosexual male, but don’t deny me it because of that either. Give the job to the best person for it.
Of course if Sky "News" was concerned in any way with real journalism (which it is not), it would verify the following (using two on the record sources) before releasing this latest piece of propaganda.Quote:

Always ask yourself what the purpose of the latest piece of propaganda from the fake news media might be.
Everyone is a hypocrite with regards to this to some degree.
IMO the changes need to come at governmental level if it's going to make a real difference. Which doesn't mean we shouldn't take any personal action.
But yeah, I'm not going to stop going on holiday or start walking everywhere. It's just not practical and, frankly, like most people I like the convenience and comfort.
I hear they are making environmentally sustainable jet packsQuote:

yes the real change is needed at government level but I know so many people who claim to care about climate change and yet the next minute it's "oh i popped over to [insert name of country they flew to here] for the weekend" etc - it's got to stop - I haven't flown for eight years
also everyone needs to eat less meat - i'm not vege or vegan but increasingly go for those options when eating (in or out) - and actually discovering in doing so that meat is far from essential for a really good meal, plus i enjoy meat all the more when i do eat it
You are right. I certainly agree about the meat thing, we should eat less for our health as much as for the climate.
But having made work trips to China and India it is tempting to think "oh what's the bloody point?!". Unless they get their act together, and the US too while we're here, it does feel futile.
Warmists :rolleyes:
