"global warming deniers" Such an ignorant statment. Firstly calling someone a 'denier' doesn't make your theory so. The sun spots, it's cycle, the clouds, all have a bigger influence on the climate than we could ever hope to. And if you think modern carbon emmisions and stuff like that are radically changing the earths envirnment just ask a geologist or a historian about the medieval warm period, I'm pretty sure they didn't have cars back then. Global warming will ALWAYS happen, so will cooling.

@mnipgailid YOU, my drooling simpleton, are a cretinous, daft, foolish, half-witted, idiotic, inane, silly, dense, feeble-minded imbecile. A moronic, stupid airhead. A blockhead, boob, chump, clodpate, dimwit, dope, dumbbell, dumdum, dunce, fool, goon, ignoramus, lamebrain, lunkhead, meathead, nitwit, sap, yo-yo, brainless, dizzy, featherbrained, harebrained, ignorant, uneducated, unschooled, vacant, vacuous know-nothing who is touched in the head. Just ask any geologist or historian ;-)

I feel for the people of Tuvalu! I would say we'll welcome them in Canada, but It's likely too cold here for them. Hopefully they find a gracious country that takes them in without given the status of a second class citizen.

I know this isn't happening any time soon. Just saying best of luck to them.

@libanlibanliban The government of New Zealand has offered asylum for the entire nation. If current trends continue, by 2020 the soil is going to be so salty that no crops will grow. By 2050 the whole nation will be under water.

When I'm in charge all these climate-change-denying nutjobs (who are quite happy to trust the world's top scientists when it comes to medicine and the internet, I see...!) will be moved to Tuvalu.

More Global Warming! What can we do? Maybe, more Socialism & Carbon Tax so we can all live happily ever after. Let's all hope that the people of Australia will work harder & do with less, so that their new one-trillion dollar environmental bills will fix that part of the world. Al Gore says that we're all going to drown soon, if we don't stop living our lives in comfort & lower our standard of living; so no cheap electricity, no meat, no cars, no extra money & no freedoms. Karl Marx uber alles!

@baddogonline "If we don't stop living our lives in comfort"?? YES WE'D LIKE YOU TO SACRIFICE YOUR FIRSTBORN!! You've obviously got no clue whatsoever about poverty, the shit most people have to put up with every day of their lives. I bet you've never been out of Australia, the great island continent that *could* be a global player but is too busy doing everything in its power to remain nothing more than a seedy backwater of whining racists happy to pay $14 a pint for beer that tastes of arse.

@thatgingerscouser Wow, what a well structured, point filled, deep case against my argument. How could I possibly argue for scientific evidence when you use so many insults. I must be wrong.
