So, he's an economist by trade, but is accepted as "a leading authority on climate change".

Are any of these climate change types actualy climatologists? Or even scientists?

Nope, none of them, the only "experts" are people who stand to make fortunes from the gullible fools believing climate change is manmade and can be altered by a tiny proportion of people changing very small parts of their lives

"Lord Stern, a former chief economist of the World Bank"

That would be the same World Bank that gave billions away and has just realised it's short of cash and will run out in less than 12 months? If that's the level of economists they employed at the world bank then his stature in non-financial matters is as out of tune as Amy Winehouse.

Politicians have become obsessed with "climate change" and are going to legislate us into the stone age, even though (whisper it) it is not really that important.

Are we surprised?

Eco warriors are often commie veggies so this is just another method of attempting to enforce their belief by deception.

Out of interest, where does stuff like couscous, quinoa and soya come from? Kent?

I can't believe these people take themselves seriously, I really can't. rofl

If meat gets banned from the shops, we should go cannibal. No prizes for guessing who'll be first to the slaughter...

I dont think they posted my comment. It went along the lines of:

Why not stop farming meat and simply eat vegetarians. We save methane, we save on the noxious gasses they seem to produce and we depopulate the world, another key way to fight climate change.

I'm in...

Oh, god, not Stern again...

If I'd received the same derision he did for his last report, I'd not dare show my face in public again.
