Remember playing Hide and Seek?
They are warm... warmer... they are hot... boiling hot... etc... Found it!
And then Gran went off in the wrong corner: Cold, very cold, colder still, freezing cold!!
Well the current global media and Web 2.0 'Earth Truth' game is a bit like Hide and Seek, and rather frustratingly, the media, a bit like Gran, are (mostly speaking) stone cold! We are somewhat 'eyes tight shut' - in the middle of a media truth vacuum.
"It's over here!"- at the other end of the football pitch - cries a small childs voice... "You are at the wrong goal mouth!"
Here's what that child might be saying - if the commentator passed them the 'microphone' -
Wake Up. Freak Out. Then Get a Grip!
Please get a nice cup of tea - and then watch this little video - from my friend Leo Murray. It is rather important. To put it mildly:
This will help you explain to your bffs why you think this carbon thing is so very exciting!"
Listen up! The only real ‘debate’ at the moment - is whether the truth is worse than the IPCC and ‘the establishment science consensus’ portray it. It's not that it's being hyped up. It's being played down. A mass conspiracy of silence - a taboo - a deathly co2ver up.
co2ugh
Picture this – the media and TV crew are all focussed - and giving great commentary - on the game as two players with hockey sticks are fighting like crazy with each other - right next to the goal mouth!
But its a noisey mock battle (a phoney ‘debate’)
Right at the other end, at the goal mouth, being totally ignored (and looking rather sad) is the player who has the ball, and is on the ball! She is waiting and wondering how to grab anyone's attention – how to be seen and heard - how to silence the noise from the other end
In fact she has slammed the ball hard into the net a few times and cried goal! ... but noone notices... so she get's the ball back... and waits patientiently. (the goal keeper is down the far end where the fight is, and all the 'news' is too!)
Most players know the raging ‘debate’ to be phoney – and a distraction – they know that BOTH ‘sides’ are wrong – and that it’s much worse than we want to know, thank you.
In other words – the diversionary tactics of those who say it's all a hoax - the Gore bashers - and those who bother to argue with them (dave - ok- on a bad day!) are distracting attention from those who know that the mainstream science reports are badly underestimating the scale and speed of the collapse in the pipeline:

It's 11 minutes long – but please watch it - it gets across a shed load of latest science - and it might just change the rest of your life - and mine - and ours all!
Nice fun approach, Dave. Jim
