Bullying the BBC

Have a read and watch as a story reporting that increases in global temperature had reversed, taking temperatures back to roughly 1998 levels, morphed into a story that foretold ominous increases in temperature.

The activist who wrote to the article’s author is an interesting case. Pay special attention, O Reader, to the threat she makes to the columnist in her last message to him, by suggesting that she will strive to impugn his credibility. For bonus points, note and laugh at how she points to the oceans as heat sinks, when it has been discovered that oceanic temperatures have not changed at all in as long as we’ve been monitoring them*.

I actually take it as a good sign that proponents of alarmism have to resort to bullying in circumstances like this. It means, I think, that they are beginning to feel a strain on their credibility, and that they are realizing that more and more people aren’t buying in to their lies.

* of course, the lack of a change is also a clear sign of the danger that global warming poses to us all, isn’t it, O Reader? ;)
