AGW: Upright thinking from a land down under

Greenhouse sceptics to congregate - National - theage.com.au:

"'Environmentalism has largely superseded Christianity as the religion of the upper classes in Europe and to a lesser extent in the United States,' Mr [Ray] Evans says in the publication [Nine Facts About Climate Change].

"'It is a form of religious belief which fosters a sense of moral superiority in the believer, but which places no importance on telling the truth,' he says.

"'The global warming scam has been, arguably, the most extraordinary example of scientific fraud in the postwar period.'"

I couldn't agree more.

And, it seems our Aussie friends have just as many spineless politicians as we do. According to Ray Evans, "Cabinet, from what I understand, is by and large still sceptical of climate change, but it is scared of the drought and worried about how Labor will make use of it."
