The post below by climate alarmist/activist Kasper Benjamin Reimer Bjørkskov (“Consultant activist – Head of innovation”) began the debate.
I responded: “Ad hominem? Let’s debate. I’ve worked with dozens of mainstream scientists over the decades to reach my conclusions, which can be found in this 2003 primer for the IEA of London.”
Matthew Joseph.K of India demurred against the censorship approach:

Or ignore him. Blocking him is a sign of weakness unless he poses a security issue for you. It will just add fuel to his cause.
Al Gore: Climate Barking at COP29
By Robert Bradley Jr. -- November 21, 2024“To the Church of Climate, Al Gore will always be their champion. But back in reality, citizen voters have had enough as consumers and taxpayers.”

Fantastic! And consonant with Trump energy policy, as well as the about-face by Argentina on alarmist climate policy.…
