"According to the historian Edward Gibbon, the decline and fall of the Roman Empire was brought about largely by the decadence and arrogance of the ruling elite. Now a new theory has been put forward by modern scientists. They blame, wait for it, climate change. ......Funny, I don’t remember global warming being mentioned in relation to the fall of Rome when I was at school. If this is true, it will have profound implications. We’ll have to rewrite Up Pompeii, for a start."
