UK heatwave: Weather forecasters report unprecedented trolling 08:39 - Jul 29 with 1084 views | NthQldITFC | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-62323048 I wonder how much of the abuse was just the ramblings of ill-informed individuals and how much was deliberate, organised disinformation initiated by vested interests. I'm not sure which is preferable, and easiest to reverse? On the one hand to inform the ill-informed you tend to have to break through ego issues, but outright fear might be good at doing that as things get worse. On the other hand, the vested interests interests are only served by dis-informing up to the point when economies start to collapse. |  |

UK heatwave: Weather forecasters report unprecedented trolling on 08:44 - Jul 29 with 1041 views | DanTheMan | Unfortunately I think it's just people who have fallen hook, line and sinker for the outright lies told by the fossil fuel industry over the past few decades. There's probably a multitude of reasons why they won't change their mind despite the overwhelming evidence. There was that article the other day about how people who worked as PR for the fossil fuel industry, and even now decades on, they still refuse to admit they did anything wrong. |  |

So do you reckon the fossil fuel industry (and its subsidiaries) has done its job, and is just sitting back reaping the benefits of its earlier work and letting the conned masses carry the flags? |  |

Right wing populism, right wing media/pundits, right wing politicians to blame†on 10:23 - Jul 29 with 837 views | unstableblue | … and the PR pumped out by Big Oil in the late 90s and early 00s Watch the doc Big Oil vs The World Watch the Fox News talking heads and Trump question man made climate change, then look at the Tory candidates pledges and the look at Talk Tv and GB News pundits… The spending I am now seeing on climate change resilience is growing very very fast… so it’s not even a science, it’s a basic cost equation… doing nothing costs more 1976 and the option in this decade can’t be linked And finally the lack of a coherent Tory policy on retrospective home insulation is just a summary of the endemic malaise and politicisation of man made global warming… DONT LOOK UP |  |

This is one of my favourite conspiracy theories. If it were true it would be so easy to prove. |  | |  |
