Excellent letter here from the Dr. Sonja Boehmer-Christensen to the BBC detailing just how subtle but pernicious it propagandises on behalf of the AGW lobby has become.
The BBC is the subject of a post on Watts Up With That today, which finishes with:
All in all, this was not a well thought out or well researched video presentation by the BBC, and in my opinion it does a disservice to the citizens that pay taxes through television licenses to support the BBC.
mentions Tol but, unfortunately but predictably, the article itself has not been a featured page in the ongoing propaganda fest. However, even though the article has the appearance of even-handedness, the authors cannot forbear to include this statement
“These critics are not climate change sceptics, but researchers with years of experience who believe that human-induced climate change is real and that we need to act now.”
In other words: the science and the statistics and the economics may be crap but let’s do something – anything!!

Can I advise her not to go walking alone in the woods.

Also on Bishop Hill, Richard Tol joins in to eviscerate Stern’s highly dubious economic take on AGW

No mention – that I can find – by the BBC. However, to be fair, this 3-year old article co-authored by Simon Cox
