Have you ever heard of the Dorset Dice Trials? The Guardian article linked examines declassified MOD files that describe a series of biological warfare experiments performed on an unwitting British public between the 1950's and 70's in the south west of England, Military personnel were briefed...

Many such cases

I don't believe this is the case. Every flat earther that I've ever spoken to grew up believing the earth is a globe but changed their long held belief because they did not reject the text which does not reinforce their view. They may be wrong, they may be crazy but they're not bogged down in...

The only real global trend for which there is abundant, undeniable data that even the layperson can interpret without needing an expert to explain, supports the hypothesis that governments tell lies and waste money and we get to like it or lump it.

In an earlier reply you said you were an outsider to the area and wanted to integrate yourself. If it's a rural area and the locals have noticed your presence, what you're doing there is probably a hot topic within the community so introducing yourself under the premise of needing advise about...

No, I don't accept Wikipedia as a reliable source and if you read their own "Conflict Of Interest Editing on Wikipedia" page diligently, including the subsection titled "Incidents" (it's quite long), you probably wouldn't either.

The problem with computer simulations and projections being used to justify an intervention is that when the projected outcome fails to materialise it's touted as proof the intervention was a success even though the outcome would be the same if the intervention did nothing and the projection was...

I did not read the link, i have not considered Snopes a reliable source since they were forced to retract 60 articles that were plagiarized by the sites co founder David Mikkelsen who was also embroiled in legal disputes with former business associates over ownership of the site that generated...

The same, Yet he somehow managed to pull the wool over enough experts eyes to become vice president of Pfizer and a the worlds leading expert on respiratory diseases. Somewhat implies the industry doesn't care too much for due diligence if his shenanigans weren't exposed until long after he'd left.

If this your field, could you shed any light on whether what Doctor Mike Yeadon, ex vice president of Pfizer has to say has any merit?

For clarity the point i was making is that because it's the consensus isn't proof of being right and being influenced by your own views, fears and prejudices isn't proof of being wrong but I agree, people can make up there own minds and if enough people share your opinion that will surely...

I'm not suggesting anything of the sort, you're skipping over the point i was making and attacking a suggestion that you made, not me.

No, I'm providing an example of when masses of people in near unanimous agreement were wrong and thus proving that consensus is not proof of being correct.

Flat earthers, right or wrong highlight the mechanism used to trick the mind into accepting a theory as fact, The heliocentric model revolves around the big bang theory (first there was nothing, which exploded and created everything) which, for all intents and purposes sounds like a miracle...

There is a very famous WW2 photo of a lone man at a political rally in Germany with his arms conspicuously folded amongst a sea of people saluting a notorious Austrian painter. At the time, the consensus was that the Austrian painter was a thoroughly decent fellow and the lone man refusing to go...

If you have land and a local farmer with a telehandler a 40ft shipping container may be an option. comparable cost to a decent metal shed, way more secure and you can hide your old tyres behind it.

"If it was not captured and used this way, then it would just be released straight into the atmosphere anyway" If industries that capture and purify the c02 do so to prevent it entering the atmosphere but the fizzy drink industry buys this captured C02 knowing it's customers will ultimately...

Plants and trees capture carbon dioxide and turn it into organic food and oxygen but unfortunately plants and trees don't have a website so no one takes them seriously.

If your priority is storage it may be worth considering just buying a non runner/spares or repair van, they're cheaper than a cheap shed, secure, don't need assembly or a prepared surface to put them on. It will buy you some time while decide on something more permanent.

If you settle on a metal shed, put it where you can see it from your bedroom window but as far way from the house as possible because the noise from rain hitting a tin roof when you're trying to sleep will drive you round the twist. If your priority is storage it may be worth considering buying...
