Surf? Skis? We dont get enough large waves for real surfing anywhere in the UK, all our beaches are good for, is to encourage city folk to visit on annual holidays and practice drowning because they dont understand things like 'offshore winds' or 'tides'....
I do hear the odd story's of people ski ing in the Scottish highlands, but its not a good place to be, last time I went up there (the result of a serious map reading error) it was full of hairy men wearing frocks and throwing telegraph poles around, crazy lot, best avoided..
4x4s are very popular in the UK with upper middle class wives who live in large city centres, and have to drive their kids the 300 yards to and from school everyday.. They make up for this apparent lack of 'green' concern by paying to have trees planted in outer Mongolia where they promptly get chopped up by the gratefull locals for firewood.
I guess a pass - through would be usefull to people who like to take rhubarb pies when they go for picnics on the village car parks at the weekends huh?
We used to have village greens with flowers, lil ponds, ducks n stuff, but a kid fell in one in 1732, caught a chill and died 7 years later, so they passed an act of parliament and got them all filled in, concreted over, and made into car parks charging £5 per hour..
As far as the global warming issues are concerned I think it will solve itself, we left it too late The climate will get so bad that it will kill 99% of the human population, the remaining 1% wont be a problem so the climate will settle down again' and we can be begin the whole polution saga once more
