The ThunderDragon: Greenpeace Threatens Hoodie Terrorism

Greenpeace Threatens Hoodie Terrorism

The video below, via Matt Sinclair [with whom I agree entirely on this], shows precisely why I dislike the climate change debate. It says that you are either a "friend or an enemy". Either you believe and do what they want you to do, or you are, basically, an evil mass-murderer - a demonstration of my prediction that "soon leaving your TV on standby will be classed as a crime against humanity!".

The video gives predictions and possibilities as incontrovertible facts. None of the "facts" presented in it - such as famine and disease epidemics - are anything more than their prediction, nor much more valid than a statement that global warming will just mean that we all live on what is basically tropical islands.

It is pretty much calling for so-called "deniers" - a term on which I have written before - to be violently attacked - not very peaceful. It is this sort of thing that drives sceptics like me towards the actual deniers. Engage in debate rather than scaremongering and extrapolation and you may well win the support of the vast majority who waver on this issue. Ads like that, however, work against your real aim. [It is quite a good ad, though. Well written, hard hitting, even more so through being spoken by a child. Just a pity it's so sick in content really.]

"Already an A lister, technical whiz Thunder Dragon shows that not all A listers are stuck up stats groupies who’d sell their grandmothers for more traffic.

He's also the technical brains behind Blogpower, along with Ian at Imagined Community." - James Higham
