One of the cornerstones of the "global warming" pandemic is revealed to have been ... well, not quite a hoax, but certainly not remotely scientific or even justified. How many billions of $ have been spent and how many landscapes have been despoiled by giant windmills because of this one fiasco?

I hear an awful lot of "baa,baa" around, but now we are finding out it is really a wolf in sheep's clothing after all!!!!!!!!

...and we're hearing more and more things like this. Al Gore's mighty quiet these days, no?

The complete absence of scientific rigour that this shows, with all sorts of people glibly accepting it without any serious questioning, frankly terrifies me. The general public don't have access to the "evidence" behind such claims and have to decide whether to accept it according to the general scientific gravitas of the people saying it. This completely undermines this process. Although some "scientists" were presumably misled and themselves accepted the assertion of glaciers vanishing based on who had said it, I am quite confident that there were many people in positions of political influence who knew that the information was false yet endorsed and promulgated it. Can any reasoning person now accept anything "experts" say?
