The blogger at carbon offset monger, TerraPass, says environmentalists are “horribly off-message”, and that they haven’t made much progress in successfully communicating their message:
In a former life I was a journalist for a national radio news program. Stories about the environment were always difficult to put on air. Whether the topic was rainforests, pollution, ozone, endangered species or one of so many other things that falls to the Environment Desk, we always struggled to make it sound interesting and relevant. The truth is, it’s very difficult to get most people to care.
Now that the man-made global warming science has been exposed via Climategate > Glaciergate > Amazongate > (please insert any “gate” I’ve forgotten in here), their messaging has been made yet more difficult. And for that they can blame the “scientists”.
