Andrew Bolt for years insisted that the REAL science showed us the world was cooling from 1998 until 2018. He falsely accredited himself with Adelaide University qualifications when he had none. He was even included in the IPA’s book published at the time of REAL facts and declared a “world expert. Today Mr Bolt is a nobody even in the current decibel output of the News Corp’s new brigade of climate deniers claiming to provide us with the REAL facts. They have all barrelled over the top of Andrew Who? Who has been left behind in their wake.

Given the gravity of climate denialism’s consequences, it should in the future be considered a serious crime. We would not be in this perilous position without it. This isn’t Thought Police shit, calm down Twitter Blue subscriber, this is about perspective, about survival, about punishments fitting the scale of the sin. We lock teenagers up for possessing marijuana; why not CEOs, and politicians and journalists for collaborating with our species’ own demise? At the very least, opinions as thickheaded as these should get you tarred and feathered on the back of a donkey as the village jeers and hurls mud, rotten fruit pelting perpetrators as they begin an exiled existence roaming the ever-warmer desert wastelands at the edge of the known world. We would all be better off for it.
