It may not be possible to challenge Morano in open debate, since he is so adept at twisting the spin to craft his case. But he does need to be challenged, as he is taking part in a well-organised, wide-ranging anti-Science drive

The Climate Change “sceptics” are living in their own little universe, too, with its own set of invented truths and contested facts, its own interpretation of governance, policy and economy. Because most of the Media people seem to believe in relativism (not Relativity), they feel that the Climate Change “sceptic” universe has an equal voice to the voice of Climate Change Science.

This is a completely invalid perception. For example, I doubt if Marc Morano has ever compiled a temperature record for his own back yard, let alone for his Nation. Without the data, he has nothing to stand on. Let’s be clear here : he is not a scientist, he is a social activist. He takes this stance because of his political allegiance, not because of any knowledge of the facts – in fact, I don’t know if he has any acquaintance with Climate Change Science at all.
