Burnside chokes on warming ignorance

It is astonishing that Julian Burnside QC still thinks - after years of debate over global warming - still thinks we are talking about soot and not about carbon dioxide gas of the kind he exhales in vast quantities. "Our children and grandchildren will struggle to breathe if we don’t act sensibly and look at what the scientists are telling us."

It is astonishing that Julian Burnside QC still thinks - after years of debate over global warming - still thinks we are talking about soot and not about carbon dioxide gas of the kind he exhales in vast quantities.

Here he is on Q&A this week, demanding action on global warming:

 Our children and grandchildren will struggle to breathe if we don’t act sensibly and look at what the scientists are telling us.

(APPLAUSE)

I'd suggest Burnside consult one of those scientists himself.
