Climate curmudgeons



Fascinated today to hear that the UK government is reported as being in dock with it's own advertising standards agency over a climate change advisory.

The ad is above. Apparently almost 400 people have complained. If this ad ran in America, Limbaugh and Beck would have blue fits, and tens of thousands would complain.

But that's not to say it isn't a terribly effective and even quite clever ad, in which I agree with most of the main points.

Although I think the drowning puppy was a bit OTT.

Anyway, see for yourself. And circulate. Circulate widely.
