The debate over man induced climate change continues with the new [ConDem] government making PC noises about costs associated with combatting AGW [Anthropogenic Global Warming]. To me the idea that they can do anything or that it is expedient given the evidence is a huge fabrication, but it keeps on rearing its “Hydra”, using a different head for each imagined fear: Sea Level Rises; Increased precipitation; glacier melt; artic ice sheet reduction; etc., etc.,

When I was at school, I recall being taught physics and it is the lasting recollections of that time that have caused me to be confused about the science of climate change; the present daily dose of verbal abuse from our political apparatchiks and the endless stream of doom from the msm (main stream media), have left me wanting to know the truth about what is happening. I say this because I have lived through times of previous doom laden predictions, all of which failed to materialise to the extent predicted. But there is a difference this time, my understanding of basic physics is being undermined.

I am extremely concerned about the loss of rain forest for example, having witnessed first hand the deforestation in Malaysia in the early nineties, when I worked in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. A trip across the causeway over the Jahore Straits into mainland Malaysia, provided ample evidence of the destruction of the forests, there is now no prime jungle in the peninsular.
