So, my only question is, why isn’t there already a video this slick comparing Manchester’s climate and football?  What have our betters been doing these last three years since the birth of the Climate Change Action Plan?  Holding yet more meetings about sub-groups and terms of reference is what. If it weren’t so serious, it would be funny.

Look, forget the people who are supposed to be sorting this out- they have no clue what to do. We are going to have to do this ourselves. Who is up for making an animated film of this length and this quality? And then publicising it to the hilt? If you are up for this, even if you don’t have the relevant skills, get in touch, please. mcmonthly@gmail.com

And if you know someone who DOES have the relevant skills, send us their details, and we will emotionally blackmail them into doing some pro bono work…
