Partys! Nice occasions to get used to being in public wearing some steampunk outfit. Or an easy (fake) excuse to explain the outfit.

Halloween... you might get a few double-takes but no one will make anything of it.

After realizing that Britain will fall short of its green targets the Government has decided to ban the wearing of clothes during the months of May until October. This will it is hoped save millions of tones of co2 being pumped into the environment from the need to wash, manufacture, and import clothing. It is also hoped it will reduce millions of tonnes of waste clothing being discarded each year. From April the first 2023, only the police and politicians will be permitted to wear clothes.
The new greener face Britain is showing to the world.

Let's not bring government into this. Trying to own things they did not create.

What a great idea. If we have to have fake news it might as well be fun fake news. I'd love to see that discussed in parliament. The government, such as it is, would have to deny it but then the opposition would accuse the government of backing tracking on its green commitments. So the government would be forced into a u turn which the opposition would have to back so as not to look stupid for their original criticism. Before you know it everyone in Britain will be walking around naked for nine months of the year. :D

OK, Shannon, I'll be a good boy and not mention the government again. But if you hear about it on the six o'clock news one day, it had nothing to do with me :) .

I'm all for the free expression. Government talk may be ill-advised here, but I am more or less trying to keeping speech here uninfluenced by them. And not have us fighting their battles for them. And in song.

"green naked" :rofl:

Seriously though, I wonder how much co2 can be saved by not wearing your clothes. You wouldn't wear them out so fast so that saves by not having to have replacements made. Most clothes in the UK are made abroad so that would save on transport emissions, then there is not having to wash them so often, so saving electric, wear and tear on the laundry machines, saves washing detergent and water. I think becoming a full-time nudist in the warm weather could be a very green thing to do and so give you a credible excuse for going around naked.
Going naked to save the world, you heard it here first, maybe, I dare say if I searched I'd find someone was already saying it.

To quote a figure from the past, "Government is not the solution to the problem. Government is the problem.

Government intervention will just make things complicated, messy, and generate reams of paperwork (which isn't green at all) and red tape (which is... red... :facepalm: ).

If anyone wants to go naked, it's their business. A lot might do that without regulation.

They just have to remember to put sunscreen on everywhere... no one wants certain bits sunburned... :shock:

That figure would be Ronald Reagan. Also, "The nine most terrifying words in the English language are ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’”

we will still need them for our winter cover-up.
There will be a special dispensation for maids, they will have to wear a little white apron and carry a feather duster.
