"Brown Least Mad On Climate"

An excerpt from this Philip Stott post (see the post for links):

[UK PM, Gordon] Brown’s words are full of waffling warmth, while the proposed action is either ludicrous or absolutely non-existent:

A ‘Green hotline’ and web site to advise people on how to be ‘good’;

A ban on one-use plastic bags. As it happens, I am personally in favour of this, but what it has to do with climate change beats me;

And some help to improve energy efficiency in poorer areas.

Er, that’s it!
...
Brown will do nothing to harm the British economy nor to hurt the disadvantaged. Indeed, in the end, he may prove to be the man for us climate realists. In practice, he is the least mad of all UK politicians over climate. I don’t think, at heart, he is really interested.
