Fox News:

Approximately 40 of the ape-like protesters invaded the Unilever factory near Liverpool and the company’s headquarters in London Sunday, disrupting operations for the soapmaker and overrunning production lines, the Daily Mail reported.

The environmental advocacy group said they’re doing their part to protect the endangered orangutans.

“By doing nothing to stop its suppliers destroying rainforests and peatlands to grow palm oil, Unilever is helping to kill off the last remaining orangutans on the planet and massively speeding up climate change,” Greenpeace Executive director John Sauven told the Daily Mail.

Why I left Greenpeace-by Patrick Moore

[…] after six years as one of five directors of Greenpeace International, I observed that none of my fellow directors had any formal science education. They were either political activists or environmental entrepreneurs. Ultimately, a trend toward abandoning scientific objectivity in favor of political agendas forced me to leave Greenpeace in 1986.

The breaking point was a Greenpeace decision to support a world-wide ban on chlorine. Science shows that adding chlorine to drinking water was the biggest advance in the history of public health, virtually eradicating water-borne diseases such as cholera. And the majority of our pharmaceuticals are based on chlorine chemistry. Simply put, chlorine is essential for our health.

It is not onlly the biggest advance in the history of public health, it’s part of the periodic table of basic elements. Manipulating “science” for politics has been a part of the Lysenkoists’ tactics for a very long time.

My former colleagues ignored science and supported the ban, forcing my departure. Despite science concluding no known health risks – and ample benefits – from chlorine in drinking water, Greenpeace and other environmental groups have opposed its use for more than 20 years.

Al Gore debates global warming

Moonbattery produces hysterical politics that forces manipulation of data and manufactured computer models…and government grant money if you include the words “global warming” in your grant application.

For now, the Lysenko-style climatologists have found a cash cow; but to the detriment of the scientific method. God help us…
