... David Cameron, who once promised that if you voted blue you would go green, now appoints Owen Paterson, a man who is not just ignorant of environmental science but proud of his ignorance, as his environment secretary. George Osborne, who once promised that his Treasury would be "at the heart of this historic fight against climate change", now gives billions in tax concessions to the oil and gas industry, cuts the funds for onshore wind farms and strips the Green Investment Bank of the ability to borrow and lend
All of which is a long way of saying that the global warming deniers have won. And please, can I have no emails from bed-wetting kidults blubbing that you can't call us "global warming deniers " because "denier" makes us sound like "Holocaust deniers", and that means you are comparing us to Nazis? The evidence for man-made global warming is as final as the evidence of Auschwitz. No other word will do.
Tempting though it is to blame cowardly politicians, the abuse comes too easily. The question remains: what turned them into cowards? Rightwing billionaires in the United States and the oil companies have spent fortunes on blocking action on climate change. A part of the answer may therefore be that conservative politicians in London, Washington and Canberra are doing their richest supporters' bidding. There's truth in the bribery hypothesis. In my own little world of journalism, I have seen rightwing hacks realise the financial potential of denial and turn from reasonable men and women into beetle-browed conspiracy theorists.

Headline: “Nick’s Knickers Knotted Now”.
As soon as these lefties can get their buds in china and Russia to implement their anti carbon policies, get back to us in the west.
Dats racis.
Climate denier = impervious to bovine excrement
LOL
Odds are against it. Massive global climate change at this time in history is unlikely. That's because at any time in history the odds are against it. I'm going with 'what's common is common'...
On the other hand liberals have been using fear tactics about the world ending unless they GET MORE POWER and MONEY - forever...
Before the "global warming scam" there was peak oil, club of rome, population bomb, nuclear winter, global cooling, no water, natural resources will disappear, and many others. As soon as one 'the world's going to end' bullsh*t scam' is debunked, they come up with a new one.
All these scams have one thing in common. We're ALL going to die and suffer IF we don't give Liberal elites more money and power.
I am soooooooo sick of these blowhard democrats and their 'the world's going to end sandwich-board mentality.
A world of 'honest journalism'? LOL - good one Norseman... that bird has flown the coop...
Leave it to The Graun to even hack a simple headline.
Fact is climate always changes, and for factors not influenced appreciably by the most heinous of human activity.
And that's the point.
Lying leftists and lying leftist rags like the Guardian promote the anthropogenic global warming scam to grow government at the expense of individual freedom, but they are losing.
Trying as hard as they will to propagandize ... but their lies are not swaying any but those who are lifelong useful idiots.
Uh, it's a joke. Godwin's Law, right?
Deadpan is hard in text.
Thanks that’s excellent! Now I don’t have to read this garbage!
LOL! Yeah, I know...
