Why does it need to devastate woodland how big is the railway tracks? Jesus it should only take up a line through the woodland with a bit of space on either side. Ok maybe they cut down a lot of trees for access but can they not replant?


If you are buying the land for HS2, Why can you not plant trees alongside the route? Surely in places they had to buy the field to get acess so plant trees to offset the railways carbon footprint? Trees will also form a barrier to help catch the brake dust and pollution that goes airborne and causes health issues too.

That's pretty much what they're doing, something like 7-9 million new trees planted by HS2 to help offset some of the loss and make the project 'greener'. They're unlikely to be planted directly along the route due to the effect of leaf fall on tracks and the risk of falling trees/branches.

I guess the counter argument would be that you can't replant ancient woodland, or recreate those habitats you destroy along the route (despite new ones being created too).

HS2 ticket prices will be to expensive for people to use it regularly. Its already cheaper to drive than use a train and the gap keeps increasing.

Probably for the average person, but then the point of HS2 is more about the effect it has on the existing lines which are a lot more affordable (but still not great).

Had to Google him, can't see the man on the Clapham omnibus being riveted and elated by this decision. Not exactly Henry Kissenger, but looking at the list of Nobel Peace Prize winners from say 1970 to date I'd wager few people could name more than 5 or 6 of them, from memory. I tend to view most with as much gravitas as Eurovision Song Contest winners and can recall a similar amount!

Watched some more of her stuff, seems like it was her idea in first place, parents somewhat opposed as school. Yet we are all saying she's 'controlled' by 'lefties', maybe not as we think.

She said that her parents weren't interested and being autistic she couldn't understand why.
Eventually she nagged them to death until they got on board.

It's perfectly possible that the agenda behind the scenes has changed since she went viral and it became more obvious that she can be used as a tool.

Greta Thunberg has rejected a €36,000 environmental award from the Nordic Council.

Luisa-Marie Neubauer is her handler.

Wrong.

She's a member of "ONE Foundation" managed by BONO, Bill Gates and George Soros

Also wrong.

There's no such thing as the 'ONE Foundation.' There is a 'One Campaign', co-founded by Melinda Gates, Bobby Shriver, George Soros, Ed Scott, Bob Geldof, and Jamie Drummond. Neubauer is not a member of that campaign.

Bono is on the One Campaign's board of directors, along with raging hardcore communist David Cameron. But Bill Gates and George Soros are not.

It is possible, but there is absolutely no evidence that it's true. So until any such evidence emerges, it can be dismissed as false.

You say your first link proves that Luisa-Marie Neubauer Yes?
Then you go on to say that "There's no such thing as the 'ONE Foundation." But you first link says there is?

I think you are trying so hard to be a libs person your failing....BIG TIME

^^ you might want to read more than a couple of lines, and note the quotation marks around the one foundation bit.


"The posts featured pictures of Thunberg and Neubauer, and falsely identified Neubauer as a “handler” or a “supervisor.” They also claimed Neubauer has ties to the “One Foundation,” an apparent reference to the One Campaign, co-founded by U2 frontman Bono."

I think you are pretending to be asleep tbh.
