31 Jan '11: [DNC writes] Professor Joe Romm, once a white house staffer of the Clinton era maintains a very interesting blog http://climateprogress.org/, including this article about the British attitude to Climate Change. Despite the downmarket nature of our national tabloid media, we are fortunate not to have the Fox News effect, where a channel can ruthlessly propogate a poisoned philosophy, instead of the truthful news. It turns out that a good majority of the British public sampled understand the difference between Weather and Climate, and recognise that if the UK got colder in December 2010, this doesn't mean that 'global warming' isn't happening, because there has to be a global balance. Most of us are aware that Greenland and the Canadian Arctic had the warmest winter ever, despite the UK's cold weather.
