Coherent or simply banal?

Coherent or simply banal? As I said in my recent Op Ed piece on the website, one of the things that changed my day on Friday last week was that I had eventually seen the motion that caused our GLD motion to be bumped from consideration at the Lib Dem Online Conference at the end of September. If you recall, the letter sent to me from the Federal Conference Committee (FCC) indicated that the motion that was chosen was supposedly "more coherent" than the GLD submission.

Trees and Bees in Hertfordshire - the County Council Responds to Situations and to Public Concerns

There's no doubt that global heating is changing the UK's climate and making it noticeably warmer. Not all changes are uniform of course. Most people will have heard of the Gulf Stream. This is a stream of warm water which drifts across the Atlantic and keeps the UK 5 degrees C warmer than the corresponding parts of Canada. The ocean movements are quite complex but the Gulf Stream is slowing down. At the moment there is a 15% chance is could stop by the end of the century. If that happened then the UK would feel the chill quite quickly. Of course that might not happen and, if it did, then it might still be centuries away.
