Whooa I did not stay on top of this thread but it seems to have generated a great debate so let's keep it going. Of course it's not all about Greta, but talk about climate change and environmentalism. She's a catalyst. Like Joan of Arc was a catalyst in French politics, but who remembers the French politics of the early fifteenth century, tell me that? It's big names and stories that get us talking, so thanks Greta and I'm firmly in your corner.

Thanks Floisme I decided on this one, very cheap and blingy. I considered the second one you posted. I just want to show I'm a Lady Hale supporter. Support all the girly swots.
Sorry I've neglected the thread I had a tooth out earlier and I am now officially deflated and pathetic for the rest of the day. The rest of you are all very impressive, on the other hand.

@Floisme the IPCC has been somewhat hampered by its past reputation, past leadership etc. Whatver message it has often gets drowned by the weight of it issues.

Ex PM of Australia published on it

Thanks for the link Samphire. I remember dismissing all the ClimateGate news out of hand at the time because they were the good guys!

CuriousaboutSamphire · 27/09/2019 07:58

I have dismissed much of the IPCCs ouput from 2002 because of Dr Rajendra Pachauri, once described as The Clown of Climate Change. He did a lot of damage, scientifically and personally - from awful science to sexual harrassment!

They have a lot of work to do to make up for him, let alone the internal inconsistencies McKitrick describes.

Pachauri is currenlty heading up Protect Our Planet and the World Sustainable Development Forum. So he hasn't really gone away and is still peddling his poor science, corrupting the good works of others. I hold him in the same level of contempt as I do Andrew Wakefield.
