  1. many a night i have been suffering from a big come down and have been lulled to sleep by his soothing voice.. but he does talk some bollocks... just now he said that fresh water is becoming in increasingly unpredictable. then he said 2/3rds of the worlds fresh water is locked in the poles, frozen in time.... im no expert but i think i can predict where the bulk of the fresh water is....

  5. He makes some fantastic programmes but I wonder given the success of them, if the next series has to be better and some artistic licence has been taken, even more so now the current one is via netflix so there is a return expected.

  9. I don't do dishes either.
    hmm, whisky without water? that's a no no.
     
  10. We have plenty of fresh water in the UK.
    It's just a matter of diverting it down South; to where it can have the most benefit to the majority of the UK..:eyes:

    The South being the power house of the UK.

  11. David Attenborough produced some brilliant series about the world, animals, insects, plants, environment etc etc etc.

    We (meaning most of the UK) enjoyed watching them over all the many years he travelled the world and the programmes were broadcast.

    So the UK population probably considered him to be a bit of an expert on all of it.

    But if he is such an expert, why 'On Earth' (see what I did there?) didn't he bloody well notice that the climate change was happening long ago, until now when he reckons we have only 10 years to do something about it?

    To me it seems like 'he who pays the piper calls the tune'.
