I'd expect they would be more in favour of HS2 than against due to mass transit systems being generally better for the environment than personal transportation.
Totally agree. They won't protest in the countries with the most environmentally chaotic policies because they would receive short shrift from the authorities and get a good clip round the ear and a spell in prison. Here we give them loads of publicity and indulge their" infringement of civil rights" when they don't care a stuff about the general population s rights to get to work and earn a living
Before a country tries to take the moral high ground and starts telling other countries what they should be doing it need to be doing everything it can (or at least making a fair fist of it) in the first place. Surely.
No we are not. We are nibbling at the edges. Be honest with yourself.

Does that change the validity of their message though? If they lived in a mud hut in the woods, or stabbed seals every morning, it wouldn’t change the accuracy (or lack of it) of their message.
Could they be owned by anyone with an agenda?
I've heard that if you took the top 6 cruise-liners (vessels, not the companies themselves) out of business it would have the environmental equivalent of taking every car in Europe off the road.
I agree. ER turns people off by their weird actions. Mucking about with normal life does not endear you. Probably same people on these activities are the same people covid deniersI've heard that if you took the top 6 cruise-liners (vessels, not the companies themselves) out of business it would have the environmental equivalent of taking every car in Europe off the road.
HS2 is going to destroy so much land and ancient woodland it's almost sickening.
I want to get behind a group who can do damage to these bigger ticket items. Blocking roads really turns me off / increases congestion and pollution and reduces air quality
I wonder how many people have actually changed their opinion because of ER

Also, 100 companies have been the source of more than 70% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions since 1988. It’s big business that is polluting the earth. But the media make sure that anyone who tries to promote a green message is ridiculed and pointed out that they also exist in the world, have cars and don’t ride donkeys everywhere. I wonder why
... and HS2 doesnt have any tangible benefit for anyone living along the route eitherI've heard that if you took the top 6 cruise-liners (vessels, not the companies themselves) out of business it would have the environmental equivalent of taking every car in Europe off the road.

The Guardian view on Boris Johnsonâs oily politics: not-so-slick green policies | Editorial
Editorial: How can Britain persuade other countries to ditch fossil fuels when it won’t do so itself?
From what you've posted before I have no doubt you are doing 'your bit' (more than possibly). Having an obvious passion for the matter I don't understand why you are believe our government is doing what it can when it clearly isn't.
Get the snip; save the world.
It almost becomes like peeing into the wind when things like this happen in Germany.
