Funny, isn’t it, that Roger Harrabin’s worries about climate change don’t preclude jet travel? And funny, too, that he mostly turns up to demonstrate his knowledge at climate events organised and run by warmist fanatics. Next Tuesday, he’s off to Carbonundrums (geddit? what a fabulous wheeze of a title) in Oslo with his chum Fiona Fox, she of the Science Media Centre, along with a chap called Paddy Coulter, who runs the equally eco-crazed Oxford Global Media group. As usual, there’s not a sceptic in sight; they are worried, poor dears, that the media is not doing enough to spread climate change lies. I wonder which of the organisers is paying our Roger’s CO2-fest fare? The BBC? the British Council? The Norwegian Government? Himself?…somehow I doubt the latter. I look forward to their conclusions – no doubt those nasty, evil, sceptics will get fingered again.
LEAVING ON A JET PLANE…

He should take the ferry. Maybe he will now 😀
Well maybe Fred will get uninvited after his article in the New Scientist 🙂
Also, I bet they will all be very, VERY angry at that get together too!

The mad Fox woman and Harrabin – what a pair! Constantly jetting around the world following fairy stories burning carbon for no real reason.
This constant and pointless use of jets rather proves that they don’t actually believe their own stories. It won’t stop them repeating these fictions ad nauseum.
Incorrigible. Where does the hypocrisy stop? It’s OK for them to do as they like, in an effort to tell the rest of us not to do it.
Clearly, none of them give a toss about what we think, they are away with the fairies on their mission to save the planet come hell or high water, and we nonentities must NOT get in the way, for verily, it is for our own good that they embark upon these jollies, er, sorry, investigative missions.
And how come Fox and Harribin et al couldnt get to Lisbon?
Dare I say it, because that wouldnt have fit their alarmist agenda to be covering sane discussions by skeptics etc.

Malawi: Harrabin attracted to wind power conference there?:
“Malawi row over whether new law bans farting”

One starts to suspect the enviro-beat reporting, quango and NGO community are without any self-awareness or irony addicted to plane travel and meeting each other at every opportunity, no matter how trivial.
They’d attend the opening of a envelope if it has the merest hint of a green excuse attached. Does no one question what the value of these things are? No wonder ‘green jobs’ are booming… it’s simply ever more twerps visiting each other.
I sometimes fall about looking at the twitter exchanges of the entire sorry bunch, arranging to meet in airport bars to catch up en route.
Never was there a religion before which offered so many airmiles with club membership. They have to keep meeting each other to bolster up their self righteous fervour.
You begin to realise why they take such exception to deniers. Its not the planet that is in danger from sceptics, its their glorious jetsetting networking lifestyle.
Bet Harrabin could recite the room rate in any international hotel in the world just as some people can recite every cup final score. Over to you Roger: Honolulu Hilton? Check!
Dont be mean to him, the Honolulu Hilton is VERY nice! 🙂

Don’t you all understand? Roger Harrabins flights to the climate change gang parties… er I mean meetings and conferences -slip of the keyboard there-are essential travel! Its only cheap flights for the peasants on their annual fortnight in Benidorm that damage the environment!
