‘Shadow a Senator’ climate push draws inspiration from Tea-Party town halls | Grist
"[L]et senators know it's not okay to quit working to stop climate change," says 350.org. "The basic idea is to attend an event where your senator is speaking. Have a few friends stand outside with signs, and then have one or two people inside the event and ask the senator when they plan to actually pass a climate bill."
...
"The plan is, frankly, to be putting a little heat on these guys who failed so signally to do anything about climate," 350.org co-founder Bill McKibben told Politico. "We figured out where everyone is going to be and we'll be showing up and asking hard questions of them. We're training people to take on their political leaders."

C3: Why The Public No Longer Trusts Scientists: Another Nail-In-Coffin Is The Recent Bogus "Declining" Rice-Yield Study
The rice yield study is quickly becoming infamous for borderline science fraud, or would that be incredible science incompetence? Like so many recent journal peer-reviewed studies advocating the threats of global warming, this one on rice yields is flat-out awful. Even laypersons can easily understand this study's major failings and politically driven AGW stupidity. This type of science is effectively undermining the public's trust.
Michelle Malkin » All of Al Gore’s Chakras Release on ‘Right Wing Media’
I’ve said all along that Gore may find that people would be far more inclined to believe his global warming doomsday rhetoric if he actually lived like he believed it. I’m not going to buy a Volt from a salesman in a limo convoy, or believe that the oceans are dangerously close to rising because a guy who just invested millions in an oceanside mansion said so.

If we were to judge purely by actions instead of words, the highest profile global warming skeptic and denier in the world today is… Al Gore.
He can blame bloggers and Fox News all he wants, but the lie that’s run around the world is his — now he’s scrambling to hide the truth’s boots.
