    But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
    Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

    Do you have any proof at all the climate change occurs? And before you answer take into account that for every so called "study" you can post, 10 can be found refuting it....
    I'm going to save Endus a whole lot of hassle and just point to these old threads where he, and others, handily tackle just about every question/objection/myth/talking point one can raise about the subject. It's a lot to read, and an astute observer will notice some fun-filled patterns.

    Thread 1, thread 2, thread 3. Enjoy.

    True. Still, I don't think there's 10 opposing for every 1 supporting.

    Yeah, China has a pollution and smog problem.

    This is the reason WHY they are investing so much into improving things, funnily enough.

    It depends on how you define a 'study'.

    "Had a look outside my window, been raining all day, climate ain't changing. That's that debunked. Now onto dinosaurs..."

    http://www.conservapedia.com/ will probably provide that. The haven for uneducated idiots.

    The global warming theory is the liberal hoax[2]
    The first few words make a promising start.

    In fairness that is compelling evidence. In other words I see your point about defining.

    I went there once, I was horrified at how devoid of facts some topics were.

    China is the highest CO2 emitting country in the world, it is an over-populated environmental disaster.

    To add to all that, a new visual piece that I quite like;

    http://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/20...ing-the-world/

    Tracks the major vectors, including the things deniers always bring up, like solar cycles, and plots them against observed temperature. Then combines them all in a final set of graphs, where the total matches the observed trend pretty much exactly. The only factor that's been increasing at any significant rate, of course, is human emissions; all the rest are either constant or declining; they drag the effect of human emissions downwards.

    Oh and even if climate change wiped out 1/3rd of arable land, there would still be enough to sustain several billion people. Advanced countries will beat climate change!

    Climate change is a gentleman, it respect national borders. Mr Ocean is especially respectful.
