I propose we have a cull of bad drivers.

It will get rid of millions of idiots, cut traffic congestion, reduce emissions and leave our roads safer for those who enjoy using them.

I think it's closer to say that bikes produce more carbon monoxide than cars...quite a bit more, but a little bit less carbon dioxide.
I'm not sure how engine size & RPM factor into all that - and I'm sure they do, but the end results "are-what-they-are".

Yes but without oxygen for us to breathe in in the first place, then we cant release the CO2. :D

Human driven CO2 production is increasing by about 1.5% every year.

The issue is we are destroying the natural balance of the way the world works.

Humans are the worst thing that have happened to the planet.

I think homo sapiens (literally, wise man :x ) was probably the worst thing.

No. I only recently learned how many different types of human there are, Cav, so you are not alone.

And if you want your brain to really be reprogrammed then read this book. It will make you realise that much of what we are taught to be true, is actually a lot of bullshit.

Humans didn't just "happen", we evolved ...we're by far the best "thing" to have happened to this planet.

Hippy. :D

We're not. We should be thankful that the other animals haven't decided to get together and see us off.

I saw a documentary the other day about animals getting rid of a farmer. So don't tell me it's not possible.

That's animals against one man, acting solely upon instinct....it's not a group "deciding" to band together. Animals don't rationalize in the way humans do....there's no 'good or bad', no morality.

Very true..my dogs are all happily waiting for me when I come home from somewhere , I don't expect all 6 of them to be plotting behind my back devising plans on how to snub me for being slightly longer than I told them ( I know they don't really understand when I tell them I'll only be 5 mins when I leave)

Now if I'd gone out and told OH I was going to be 5 mins and was 2 hours longer without calling , he would go nuts and vice versa

The other morning I'd completely forgot to open up the duck house at dawn... it was nearly 7 when I realised all was quiet... they happily came out to see me when I opened up the shed.. not one of them gave me a wing clip as they got out :)

I read the book....if memory serves wasn't it just a post-WW2 "The-Commie-Hordes-Are-Coming!!" analogy??

......I could well be wrong about that, it was 40 years ago that I read it.

I've fired off an email to HJC customer services AND been to my local stockist to send back my latest visor which I bought in Feb

Not happy with it at allImageImageImageImage
