Global Warming Propagandist Slapped Down

William Connolley, arguably the world’s most influential global warming advocate after Al Gore, has lost his bully pulpit. Connolley did not wield his influence by the quality of his research or the force of his argument but through his administrative position at Wikipedia, the most popular reference source on the planet.
Through his position, Connolley for years kept dissenting views on global warming out of Wikipedia, allowing only those that promoted the view that global warming represented a threat to mankind. As a result, Wikipedia became a leading source of global warming propaganda, with Connolley its chief propagandist.

BBC Given a Mandate: Balanced Climate Change Coverage

Climate change sceptics are likely to be given greater prominence in BBC documentaries and news bulletins following new editorial guidelines that call for impartiality in the corporation’s science coverage.
The BBC has been repeatedly accused of bias in its reporting of climate change issues.
Last year one of its reporters, Paul Hudson, was criticised for not reporting on some of the highly controversial “Climategate” leaked emails from the University of East Anglia, even though he had been in possession of them for some time.
Climate change sceptics have also accused the BBC of not properly reporting “Glaciergate”, when a study from the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) saying that glaciers would melt by 2035 was discredited.

Top American Scientist Quits APS over 'Global Warming Scam'

Leading expert quits American Physical Society over media climate bias but is ignored as mainstream reports focus on "junk" climate scientist instead.
Skeptics who say media bias has been skewing the debate about man-made global warming appear to have had their claims substantiated.
On a day when eminent Professor Harold Lewis resigns from the American Physical Society (APS) alleging establishment and media bias, the Washington Post ignores the resignation in favor of giving prominence to an opinion piece by Michael 'hockey stick' Mann. Mann is one of the alleged “junk scientists” that Lewis claims was instrumental in perpetrating the “global warming scam.”
Blogosphere Support for Scientist’s Noble Stand
One of many internet blogs quick to add weight to the claims of Professor Lewis is Anthony Watts of the highly ranked and popular, WUWT. Addressing the Lewis resignation as being as significant as Martin Luther nailing his 95 theses to the Wittenburg church door Watts agrees on the issue of media bias saying, “What I would really like to see though, is this public resignation letter given the same editorial space as Michael Mann in today’s Washington Post.“

Global Warming Summit Heads for Failure Amid Snub by World Leaders

The last United Nations summit on global warming in Copenhagen, at the end of last year, ended in failure and recrimination. More than 100 heads of state turned up hoping to be part of a deal that would "save the world", but failed to get any legal agreement to stop rising temperatures.

World leaders have snubbed the next round of international climate change negotiations in Mexico next month amid fears the talks will collapse.
The last United Nations summit on global warming in Copenhagen, at the end of last year, ended in failure and recrimination. More than 100 heads of state turned up hoping to be part of a deal that would "save the world", but failed to get any legal agreement to stop rising temperatures.
This year, they are declining even to attend, instead sending environment ministers and playing down the talks as much as possible.
The process is dogged by a disagreement over the best way to limit the growth in greenhouse gases, which are blamed by scientists for rising temperatures. Environmentalists believe the best approach is a binding treaty that will force all countries to cut carbon emissions. But at the last major meeting before the Cancun summit, held in China last week, delegates were still in dispute.

As Another Freezing Winter Looms, Council Hands Out 2,000 Spades and Tells Residents: 'Dig Yourselves Out When it Snows'
source: dailymail.co.uk
The north London council's proposal involves a 'self-help' scheme in which people can ring and request a shovel.
Council chiefs have sparked outrage after proposing residents dig themselves out of the snow as Britain braces itself for another winter of Arctic conditions.
As long-range forecasts suggest the country will be hit by blizzards and temperatures plummeting to -20c, bosses at Camden Council prepared to hand out spades.
But their solution to the bitter weather has been slammed by those who remember the headache of last year's gritting crisis which brought widespread disruption and left people trapped in their homes.
