"The majority of people in Britain are in denial about the risk of global warming in our lifetimes, according to a new study into the psychology of climate change."

What, just in denial about climate change?

They are in denial full stop about anything and everything that might mean a change.

Our belief systems are our downfall.

I thought that climate change meant that Egyptians would be in de-Nile?

Well, at least it's not as bad as the citizens of Le Havre and Rouen -- they'll go in-Seine

Don Piddle around!

Rheidol, here we go...

Be it ever so Hamble, I Asker you, it's Tame, nay even Teme to say Wye oh Wylye Dorn we Lugg our Tweed, Roding on the Camel to the shop to Swale them in the Otter water (stops me Itchen, and I can Test the Wear on my Cocker). Wyre we there I'll see my Exe (a Taff) Dart around (don't Bovey here though) and we can Crouch, and Churn the Ash to Leach out the Ouse, Uck and Ock Rother than do it at home where Blackwater might Irk the Tonge. We'll shout “Medway”, like Orwell-ian fiends, and with a Blyth Blithe spirit, Fleet of foot we'll Cam down, Nene stopping for drink to the Hipper-Drone to see a Wensum Lark and his Dove – I Esk you, you've never Lyvennet until you Ribble on the Mersey.

Douglas, Sid, Rea, Clyde, Dee, Ray, Ken and Greta might think me a Lune, but it's about Tyne (North and South) I Went to see Tamar. So Ystwyth great pleasure Eye think I'm Ely done; Tees time to Idle in Eden and now is Tay time for Cothi –-

Ryton dudes!

I make that 74!
