With a massive chunk of the Mont blanc glacier about to fall I thought an attempt to name and shame companies that are being needlessly wasteful might help? Well it can't make it worse!


I may not be able to go to climate protests, be an influence on social media or get time with the government but what if we could all name businesses that are being needlessly wistful and shame them into changing???


I will kick it off with Sports Direct ALL winter they have their store so hot their staff wear shorts and T-shirt, they actually wear more clothes in the summer because they have the air-conditioning on!
The heat in the winter is actually to the detriment of the customers as they have to take their coats, hats, scarfs and jumpers off which then have to be carried which actually inhibits shopping not to mention the more disturbing effect on climate change:mad::mad:


EVERY person on this planet can help make a difference no matter how small an action you can make IT ALL ADDS UP!!!!!

    There is a surefire way to minimise one's carbon footprint. If the various watermelons clogging up London and other cities were genuinely concerned about the environment, they would take it. But in reality they're nothing but the usual authoritarian rent a mob. QED.
