Britain closes down global warming bureaucracy

The almost unthinkable has happened. In a clear sign that the global warming fraud has peaked and is on the decline, an actual government agency has been abolished, because it was dedicated to global warming. Andrew Follett of the Daily Caller writes:

Britain’s new government abolished its Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) Thursday morning, ridding the country of its global warming bureaucracy.

Officials stated that the DECC has been abolished and U.K.’s environmental policy is will be transferred to a new ministry called the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. Some former DECC’s functions will be outright abolished, while others will be handed back to the new ministry.

Maybe even a return to Magna Carta and adoption of a Bill of Rights.

If this is due to Brexit - then Brexit is paying bigger dividends than ever expected!

Hallelujah!

ZULU was talking about the “Hairy” Mammoths, not the “Wooley” Mammoths...

The “Hairy” Mammoths are still flourishing in San Francisco...

He’s probably had to retreat to Windsor castle to contemplate the awful news. He and algore are truly wack jobs. I give charles a slight edge though in nuttiness.

WOW! That makes 2 steps in the right direction now. First telling Brussels to take a hike, now slapping the ecowackos where it hurts. In the wallet. What's next? Telling the u.n. to butt out? Maybe a crackdown on the non-assimilating mooselimbs?

Amazing, after they elected an Islamic Thug as London's mayor, many of us felt that the old sod had become a living hell.

Now as you point out, they are showing signs of sanity and maturity instead of suicidal PCism.

Global warming bureaucrats have chained themselves to their desks in protest.

The libs always point towards European progressive polices as something we should strive towards.

I am sure they will quickly climb on this bandwagon!

They're shutting it down because people finally realize that wind power is NOT the way to go the UK, given the expensively meticulous maintenance needed for wind farm installations.

On vacation there last month I noted a good proportion of the offshore ones don’t appear to be turning, even in a good wind.
I assume the salt water environment is an engineering challenge.

All "Green Energy" projects paid by tax payer money should be halted immediately.
If the industry can prove that a project will supply energy that is reliable, sufficient and cost effective (without subsidies) we may reevaluate that one.
Until then, all such waste of public money based on a false premise should be scrapped.

If a private company wants to seek out alternate energy sources, good luck to them.
We'll pay you when you deliver, not before.
