The devastating impacts of climate change are becoming impossible to deny. Scientists have for 30 years been pointing out the dangerous consequences for the planet and its inhabitants. There is no reasonable doubt that global warming is real, it is manmade, and it is serious.
Responsible citizens have been pushing for effective action to reduce fossil fuel use. But a core group of denialist journalists and organisations have been brutally sabotaging their efforts. Now that the devastating effects are becoming impossible to ignore, concerned citizens and journalists the world over are compiling lists of these cowards.
School children can see their planet and their future are being wrecked. They will be voters and adults in a few years, and in increasing desperation will demand drastic action. There is a growing effort to track down those most responsible.
Deniers, you have been warned!

Some examples. Sources in my dropbox at https://tinyurl.com/v9stq5m .
1. Malcolm Turnbull’s ‘do-nothings’ who argue fact or fiction on climate science.
2. Unearthing America's Deep Network of Climate Change Deniers: A new study attempts the first tally of those driving the peculiarly American strain of climate change denial.
3. Network structure and influence of the climate change counter-movement.
4. Merchants of Doubt: How a Handful of Scientists Obscured the Truth on Issues from Tobacco Smoke to Global Warming.
5. Australia, your country is burning: dangerous climate change is here with you now - Michael Mann, currently on sabbatical in Australia.
6. A Burning Nation, led by cowards – Angus Hervey.
7. You will die of old age; I will die of climate change – student protest placard.
8. Your 50% risk [of collapse and extinctions] is simply not acceptable to us… the young people are starting to understand your betrayal… we'll be watching you… we will never forgive you – Greta.

'compiling lists of these cowards.'

Don't you believe in democracy?
Don't I have a right to my own opinion and dissent?

Or is it all Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil! Yes mein Fuhrer now?
You don't happen to sport a Hitler moustache do you?
if not you should, maybe it'll suit you.

So what are you trying to do, scare me?
Do you want me to curl up into the fetal position and piss all over myself in a state of pure fear?

Don't you know it's 2020 and the Women who advocate against Domestic Violence say ITS WRONG to use fear or violence, (or fear of violence) to try to control other peoples behaviour?

Even those nutcrackers know IT'S WRONG.

You know what's really sad?
You wouldn't be saying that so proudly and confidently if people were coming door to door to round you up.
You look forward to punishing them don't you?

- But remember it goes both ways.
Maybe others are also writing lists with people like you on it.
You wouldn't be so confident if you were also in the firing line.

You're the one driven so mad by your beliefs that you're thinking about rounding 'deniers' up.
And that makes you an angry little coward, does it not?

- And BTW if you look forward to punishing others, that makes you an extremist.
You're a bona-fide danger to society.

" You will die of old age; I will die of climate change – student protest placard."

Oh a student made a placard? Well that changes everything!!

And Mr Bryce falls for Oreskes load of tripe. Nuf said.

"School children can see their planet and their future are being wrecked. They will be voters and adults in a few years, and in increasing desperation will demand drastic action."

Well school children can see what they've been indoctrinated to see. But when they become voters and workers and taxpayers and parents, they'll see what the rest of us can see. That the futile effort to control the climate isn't worth the cost. and they'll vote accordingly.

Wow. An excitable newcomer really putting the boot in. Lists of "cowards", eh. Shades of 1984 and popping off the Romanovs in the cellar. What hysterical nonsense. Shot his bolt straight way.
