Somebody sent me this Toronto Sun piece the other day and I tried to ignore it. Seriously, in two short paragraphs, columnist Lorrie Goldstein dismisses we โ€œglobal warming fanaticsโ€ as unreasonable, indecent, insensible, absurd, disgusting, juvenile, half-baked, self-righteous and mindlessย propagandists.

He then lays out a careful scientific argument convincingly refuting the global scientific consensus on climate change โ€ฆ no, I’m kidding. He just goes on being insulting for his entire 600-wordย budget.

Perhaps we should take heart that this the opposition has been reduced to thisย โ€ฆ.
