Looking at the top voted comments there's very little of the usual denialist canard, very little factual comment at all. One jerk attempts it by stating that over the last 14 years there's been less than 1 degree's warming - well at 0.17degC per decade what do you expect?<br /><br />I've been pondering whether my hardline stance on the sceptics/denialists is warranted. Then I come across Booker, Littlejohn, and the sort of crap Lawson comes out with, and I'm forced back into thinking they're a shower of tossers.Chris Reynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16843133350978717556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1367053740188758246.post-6791752332685250002011-12-08T09:11:23.427-08:002011-12-08T09:11:23.427-08:00Have you seen Bonkers Booker's piece in the Da...Have you seen Bonkers Booker's piece in the Daily Mangle about David Attenborough, Frozen Planet and the BBC?<br /><br />http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2071358/BBCs-bias-global-warming-An-inconvenient-truth-climate-change.htmlLazarushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139033650731770470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1367053740188758246.post-77076897276876931112011-12-07T14:20:08.058-08:002011-12-07T14:20:08.058-08:00Another good post.

Having just viewed the program, if my memory serves, David Attenborough actually mentioned 1 meter of sea level rise by the end of the century. <br /><br />Your quote is a classic and hard to disagree with;<br /><br />"If part 7 of Frozen Planet: "On Thin Ice" is alarming that is because the situation is alarming, not because Attenborough is being alarmist."<br /><br />I have used a similar idea when discussing climate change; "Don't listen to environmental alarmists, the science is alarming enough!"Lazarushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139033650731770470noreply@blogger.com
