Climate change

Damn that Stephen Fry.

He's summarised my frustrations about the nay-sayers in the global warming and climate change debate in his latest blessay - Getting Overheated (for the impatient, you can skip the first half of the blessay which is about inadvertantly irritating Terry Pratchett fans). Being erudite and articulate though, he manages to convey it in a persuasive and well thought out, reasoned manner.

This is someone who professes an ignorance in all areas scientific, whereas I have enough scientific background to find the whole thing terrifying (especially the inaction and indifference of so many people over this issue).

It makes me feel even more inadequate, even though he's a legend.

Dammit.
