Climate change sceptics: DIE DIE DIE!
Thanks for checking back, we really appreciate it.
Let me get one thing out of the way.
I feel really sorry for climate deniers. Especially rusty old crackpots like Ian Plimer, or, for that matter, utter crackpots like Bolt. Even as the Good Ship Humanity sinks into the murky depths, methinks he will protest too much.
But I digress.
Much has been made recently in Australia about the need to “discuss” whether we “believe” in the science behind the CC/AGW hypothesis.
No. There is no need (this means you Fielding).
Ian Plimer, an apparently respected Adelaide geologist, recently wrote a book, which I won’t link to as it’s rubbish and full of lies about climate change. In it, he uses and manipulates research, graphs and so on to push his barrow.
And snow lover, this is what you’re up against. Crusty old (and young – that means you Bolt) deniers seeking to halt, deny and delay change and action – the action required to salvage humanity (you can pretty much forget about snow seasons especially in Australia. Ironic huh? A snowboarding company writing about and cataloguing the death of our beloved sport).
The following links are REALLY good education as they show you the depths that these clowns are stooping to. Guys like Plimer are being thoroughly debunked all the time, but they still get airtime.
It’s utter bullshit that this happens.
So, Plimer wrote his book. Then Tim @ Deltoid jumped all over it.
Then Monbiot jumped on him…
So did Karoly…
And Lambeck…
And Malcolm Walter…
Then Monbiot challenged him to a debate.
All good so far. Condition was Plimer had to pre-answer some questions Monbiot had.
And then it fell down in a heap.
Luckily, we had the inimitable Tamino sort things out.
Anyway, that’s what we’re up against.
Here’s some more info about how to deal with skeptics.
CE Journal. Real Climate. Science Blogs – IllConsidered 1 and 2 (this one is REALLY good).
Clive Hamilton has a really good article on what obfuscation means for us.
