Do you think anyone has told her that they have petrol motors. And she's trying to link it with the 'Biosphere' beggars belief. https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/garff-mhk-joins-department-for-enterprise/ It'll be interesting to see/hear how she squares that one away. She can't of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(The islands air is okay when it is windy, but when it is not, is is full of all sorts of SH1T that most first world countries have banned. I'm calling bullshit on pretty much all of that statement. 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may not have a condition like I do that makes me very aware of air quality. You are lucky. Trust someone who knows, The islands air quality is SHIT WHEN THE WIND DONT BLOW, especially in Douglas. The knackered diesel cars/ vans pumping out black soot for one thing because you don't have MOTs is one reason, no smokeless zones, a Gas burning power station in the middle of at city and an incinerator that runs below optimum temps due to lack of fuel on the outskirts of that city are more reasons. FFS. should I mention the old lead mines, the heavy metals in Peel bay, the, Oh forget it, your brain is obviously too far affected to understand from the lead. When I lived there I was involved in a small project to monitor air quality, this was before my lungs mostly gave up. The project was active for about 3 years then quietly removed due to the bad results and that was 30 years ago, before knackered diesel vans/ cars were even thought about. If you don't have home PH2.5 filter yet, buy one ASAP AND KEEP YOUR WINDOWS SHUT Dyson fans can have them and Phillips do a good one, it would be the best money you spent.

I'd have to disagree with all of that Blade. Spent a long time working around Catterick Garrison,Harrogate,Ripon MOD base and Menwith Hill. The air quality even for my youngsters who both suffered with asthma,greatly improved after moving away to settle here. There was also a lot more lead mining going on around you in the past than there ever was here,and over a larger area,Blubberhouses to Swaledale was crawling with lead mines. As for knackered diesel cars pumping out black soot,that'd be a rare sight over here and no more prevalent as to what I see when I visit family back over that area a few times a year.
