Oh, you mean that climate change policy where we throw up a few useless wind farms and subsidise the hell out of the energy sector in general? The public have no faith in that? Well I never.

The only people really stoking fear at the moment are Davey and some of the Tories for their own ends. I mean their response to the 'global warming-linked' flooding etc has been stellar :roll:

On Wednesday, Lord Lawson a former Conservative chancellor who regularly casts doubt on climate science, also criticised suggestions of a link between the floods and global warming as absurd.

He said: "You'll see the Met Office's own report denies it. It is just this Julia Slingo woman who made this absurd statement, but their own official statement makes it clear there is no proven link whatsoever.

"There's been bad weather before. And anyhow, climate change is a global phenomenon, and you don't attribute local things like this necessarily to some global picture."

The problem is that the 2007 were described as once in a century events and less than 7 years later we have even more severe storms.
