So I was right about the BP oil spill… – Telegraph Blogs

Whether it’s BSE or Sars or Swine Flu or the Millennium Bug or the Exxon Valdez or Deepwater Horizon or – the biggest con of the lot – “Man Made Global Warming”, the trajectory followed by these scares is exactly the same: a vaguely plausible threat gets exaggerated by journalists, publicity- and funding-hungry “experts” and activists to the point where it seems very real and captures the public imagination; in steps the government keen to be seen to doing something to address this urgent new public concern; vast sums of money are squandered to deal with this non-existent threat; the story moves on to a new scare (repeat ad infinitum); afterwards it emerges that the supposed threat wasn’t nearly as great as had been supposed but – yesterday’s Telegraph piece being an honourable exception – this is rarely reported because the story has moved on.
...It will be the same, one day, with “Man Made Global Warming.”

Unfortunately, by the time that happens, the money will have been spent and the country ruined with wind farms. And all for the simple reason that our political class – and the majority of those who vote for them, unfortunately – have no grasp of history.

C3: Why Is The Best Polar Climate Research Being Done Outside The U.S. and UK? The Problem With 'Fat & Happy' Scientists

American and UK climate scientists working for Nasa/GISS, NOAA/NCDC, NCAR, CRU/Met are primarily computer jocks who prefer the security of their cubicles and the speculative, virtual, computer climate models.

In contrast, climate scientists from other countries actually pursue scientific truth by venturing outside, experiencing the weather and hardships, taking real-world climate observations and conducting physical experiments/measurements. The U.S./UK generous government funding of our climate researchers has made them 'fat & happy' leading to reduced intellectual curiosity and extreme mental/physical laziness.
