Peter Sinclair, the creator of the โ€œClimate Crock of the Weekโ€ series, has a new video posted at the Yale Forum on Climate Change and the Media documenting just how out of touch with reality the Heartland Institute’s recent offensive Unabomber billboard campaign is. Featuring the calm and insightful comments of Margaret Thatcher, Sinclair shows the stupidity of Heartland’s claim that all of us who acknowledge climate change science are โ€œmurderers, tyrants, and madmen.โ€

Watch Sinclair’s piece, part of Yale Forum’s โ€œThis Is Not Coolโ€ series:
