climate science: BEWARE THE ENVIRONMENTAL TALIBAN
The 3 photos above all show a so-called "eco-activist" throwing a custard pie in the face of someone they disagree with. (1) is a US negotiator at a climate conference, (2) is Bjorn Lomborg at the launch of his book "The Skeptical Environmentalist" and (3) is a CEO from the coal industry. What they show is how intolerant these "activists" are of any opinion that differs from their's. Without a rational discussion such people can never reach any considered opinion. They are really terrorists and it will not be long before they go beyond custard pies and things take a much more sinister turn.
RedState: Why Scientists Sometimes Lie
I do not claim that scientists who support anthropogenic global warming are wrong, merely that it is unwise to massively reorder our society based on interpretations of extraordinarily complex data conducted by people who are not neutral as to the result.

When scientists who believe in global warming stop calling colleagues who disagree with them “Flat Earthers” and “Neanderthals”, or insist that “the debate is over” and therefore it is illegitimate to question them, then I may be willing to listen to their arguments. Not until then. [Via Skeptics Global Warming]
