Cars

I was thinking of cars and their conflict with climate change, when, a minute afterwards, an email appeared in my inbox from Volkswagen about their electric car range!  How precipitous is that?!

Cars are the next big challenge on the environmental agenda which I don't really think we have taken grasp of to date.  Electric cars are not the full answer they proscribe to be.  We will need a low-carbon transport mix which significantly cuts down on the amount of travel people make.  Think walking, cycling, buses, trams, rail, taxis, as well as lifestyle changes such as home-working and video calls.  We did a lot of this during the recent Covid-19 pandemic, so surely we can keep up the ante!

As an aside, why is everything so expensive suddenly?  I'm looking forward to The Festival of Thrift in Billingham on 23-24 September!

God's Plan with Mankind has been in the making for the past 6,000 years but the final Endgame comes into full force this weekend ahead of the beginning of the Sacred Year this coming Tuesday, 9 April. Politicians and businessmen think they have a generation left to "solve" Climate Change, but God promises that "for the sake of the elect", "time will be cut short".  This is not to give up hope - we will all be judged for our actions in these Last Days, and we are admonished to do all in our might not to destroy the Earth. ... Yesterday I went to Durham Cathedral for Evensong by St. Catharine's College Cambridge Girls' Choir.  Before I went, I removed all the contents of my under-stairs cupboard ready to sort out.  When I got home, to my surprise, there was a guide to Durham Cathedral in one of the boxes.   Har
