Climate Common Sense: Climate Change Clean-out is Coming!

There is little doubt that a new Coalition government in September will be disinclined to commit more than a token amount towards the climate scam and given the requirements for budget cutting the Climate Change bureaucracy should be quaking in their boots. Campbell Newman in Queensland has given a foretaste of the future by ruthlessly closing down the Queensland Office of Climate Change.
The Financial Review estimates that 20 billion dollars of cuts are likely with a new federal government.

- Bishop Hill blog - Lindzen at the Oxford Union

The Lindzen debate at the Oxford Union was, I think, a rather significant moment in the climate debate. One in which sceptic views got a fair hearing in an open debate. Lindzen was to be accompanied by a panel of invited experts consisting of David Rose, Mark Lynas and Myles Allen. Part 1 was an interview of Lindzen with interjections from the panel, while part 2 opened up the debate to the floor.

The star of the show, however, was David Rose, whose controlled aggression and moral outrage was combined with great lucidity and an ability to get complex points over in an accessible fashion. This was star in the making stuff. His opponents on the expert panel on the other hand were strangely muted and almost seemed as if they had no stomach for the fight. There was in fact a great deal of agreement on many aspects of the debate - for example, everyone agreed that Hasan's "97% of scientists" line was irrelevant (and as Barry Woods explained later isn't true anyway). Perhaps more importantly, everyone also seemed to agree that current policy choices are foolish, the main differences being over whether emissions reductions are required.
