Here’s a great video from BBC’s “Horizon” – fascinating watch that puts Delingpole firmly in his place.

The idea that scientists and scientific methodology are somehow at fault for the societies lack of understanding of Climate change I think is naive, it is far more simpler, vested interest corruption is the cause.
This can be seen in ‘condensed form’ underway right now in the denial/corruption of the dangers of Fukushima/radiation.
“Now the Japanese government has moved to crack down on independent reportage and criticism of the government’s policies in the wake of the disaster by deciding what citizens may or may not talk about in public. A new project team has been created by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communication, the National Police Agency, and METI to combat “rumors” deemed harmful to Japanese security in the wake of the Fukushima disaster.
The government charges that the damage caused by earthquakes and by the nuclear accident are being magnified by irresponsible rumors, and the government must take action for the sake of the public good. The project team has begun to send “letters of request” to such organizations as telephone companies, internet providers, cable television stations, and others, demanding that they “take adequate measures based on the guidelines in response to illegal information. ”The measures include erasing any information from internet sites that the authorities deem harmful to public order and morality.”

Perhaps the most stark evidence of the depth of this corruption/denial is disparity between estimated costs of Chernobyl, such extreme denialism holds little hope for rational discourse.
Sadly, you are probably correct jcrabb. Actually, your comment reminded me of Paul Gildings new book “The Great Disruption”. Great book and a great read. http://paulgilding.com/ Similar sentiments.
