No more. What we need more of is the answer to the question: <b>What are we going to do about this nonsense?</b><br /><br />Do we complain loudly to the <em>Guardian</em>, naming names of 'skeptical' journalists? Do we flood Kelly's snail mail box with letters or something? Do we create our own video as a reply? Or do we just comment about it on one single blog and leave it at that?<br /><br />-- <a href="http://ijish.livejournal.com/" rel="nofollow">frank</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524070301101240472.post-83740094160597649352010-04-29T22:30:13.344-07:002010-04-29T22:30:13.344-07:00Michael Mann was a top UN scientist who was peddli...Michael Mann was a top UN scientist who was peddling stuff to the UN?poughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00892038673638383735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524070301101240472.post-14638905964837822482010-04-29T17:54:53.696-07:002010-04-29T17:54:53.696-07:00I find it funny that they’re quick to accuse other...I find it funny that they’re quick to accuse others of vested interest in the green movement when it’s been clearly demonstrated that many of the champions of climate denial are without a doubt on the payroll of oil. DesmogBlog likes to highlight this fact a lot.<br />Personally, I feel this whole debate has very little to do with science anymore. There’s far more at stake here than just climate change and people like these two in this clip do nothing but encourage inaction. It’s more or less kin to the Amish. If the conservative right is all about money and progress, they should rightfully acknowledge that adaptation to a changing climate is progress (regardless of the reasons, climate is changing) and effective resource management should include the realization that fossil fuels are on a downward slope of depletion and economies will need to run on other means of power..Mothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15894597496694539200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524070301101240472.post-80455965969404080672010-04-29T14:55:18.701-07:002010-04-29T14:55:18.701-07:00BafflegabBafflegabDavid B.

He just went directly to what he wanted to say. <br /><br />Which illustrates that there is no particular interest in facts at Fox.
