Watch the full HD version at Vimeo for the best effect.

In the absence of an open thread: Suzanne Goldenberg, Christian Parenti and Jeff Masters on the new climate and its exacerbation by the Republican War on Science on today’s DemocracyNow!
Well, the old one is still open – but it has fallen off the front page. I’ll start another one later.
Oh, I’m not complaining – just trying to excuse my laziness.
I really do recommend watching the DN! episode – Heartland gets a look-in as well, and Parenti discusses the issues along the lines of Gwynne Dyer. Such that I’m going to have to get the book! Ah, and now I have – gotta love the kindle era!
And, this is priceless – one of Watts’ loyal acolytes has established a Climatewiki ‘skeptical’ of SkS. It would be fair to say the results are not impressive. (And Josh, as ever, is not funny.)
