Some time back I averred that pub patio heaters would end up in the sights of the Joy Police (thought it was on the blog, but I cannot find the evidence), and lo and behold this is what is coming to pass on the other side of the Rhine:"The heaters, known as Heizpilze in German, became hugely popular in trendy bars and restaurants, particularly after the smoking ban took effect.
Yet the district of Pankow, which includes the Prenzlauer Berg area, has altered licensing rules in order to ban the heaters – because they contribute so much to global warming by releasing vast quantities carbon dioxide".....
"We have put ourselves at the vanguard of the movement,” Green district councillor Holger Kirchner told the Berliner Zeitung. He said he did not want to prevent people from sitting outside, “But one doesn’t have to heat up the outside in November.”.
- NEXT THING YOU KNOW THEY'LL BAN FARTING!
- AND FOR WHAT!?!?
- AGW IS TOTAL BS.
- AND POLCIES LIKE THIS ONE THEY'RE PROPOSING ARE BS, TOO:
- THEY HAVE NO EFFECT ON GLOBAL MAN-MADE CO2 LEVELS,
- AND NO EFFECT ON GENERAL GLOBAL CO2 LEVELS - PERIOD.
- ALL POLICIES LIKE THIS ONE AND KYOTO DO IS MAKE THE POSTMODERN LEFTISTS/LIBERAL FASCISTS FEEL GOOD.
- CROYDOINIAN APTLY CALLS THEM "POINTLESS GESTURES" AND HAS ANOTHER WHOPPER HERE.
- DON'T FALL FOR IT - DON'T BE DUPED.

Banning patio heaters? That's stupid any way you look at the measure.
