Stolen emails from a British climate center lead U.S. Congressmen to call for investigations of British scientists. On the eve of the Copenhagen climate talks, comes this November surprise.
A second climate institute, in British Columbia, was also broken into, twice, and a computer stolen. Part of a push by ....who?
So the good news is, there is no climate change! The melting arctic, dead pines, extreme rainfall events and droughts - were all a plot by tens of thousands of scientists to turn your life over to the Bildebergers, the Illuminati, or something. Relax, climate science has been defeated. Get out there and shop in a big V-8!
Dr. John Holdren, Obama's top science adviser, answers over the top questions from Congressional deniers. Jane Lubchenco explains science. Get the highlights, and the lowlights, in this Ecoshock digest of Committee Hearings last week. The whole 1 hour 46 minute recording is also available from the Climate page of our audio on demand menu, at ecoshock.org. Recorded 091202
Then, we take a break for some fun. Hedgehogs have been around for 70 million years. Hugh Warwick was selected from a crowded field to represent the threatened European hedgehog. The only problem, he has to get the tattoo...Warwick brings us an entertaining look into Nature, with a serious purpose.
Followed by a little more climate insanity news from Australia and Canada. UK journalist George Monbiot labels Canada as the biggest threat to international negotiations. All because of $$$ from the sticky tar sands.
