"Wholly predictable last week was the ghoulish eagerness of the warmists
(including David Cameron) to blame the Philippines typhoon disaster on
“man-made climate change”. Those sceptics who actually consult the evidence
wearily pointed out that in recent years tropical storm activity, including
Pacific typhoons, has been less intense than for decades; and that Asia was
hit by even worse typhoons in the past, notably in the late 17th century, at
the height of the “Little Ice Age” when the world was much colder than it is
now.
Meanwhile, in Warsaw, 10,000 officials and climate activists are gathered
under the auspices of the UN, in yet another desperate attempt to agree that
we must all be taxed and regulated into further reducing our “carbon
emissions”. An innovation this time, however, was a 50,000-strong mass
demonstration nearby, in support of a “counter-conference” sponsored by
Solidarity and other Polish groups, to protest at how the UN’s bogus science
is being used to “deceive the world”. As the country that relies more on
coal for its electricity than any other in Europe, Poland is leading the way
in resisting the pressure for the EU to commit economic suicide by raising
its insane “carbon-reduction targets” even higher — pressure led by our own
Government.
When can we hope to see 50,000 people turning out in Britain to protest that
we have the most idiotically self-destructive energy and “climate” policies
in the world?"
