2006 in many ways was the year of recognition that global climate change is not a liberal fantasy. Thanks in no small measure to Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth and to incontrovertible evidence that the Earth is changing, it became harder and harder to deny the reality of climate change. This was the year that global warming deniers changed their tactic from “it can’t be proved” to “maybe it’s not such a bad thing after all” and “we don’t know exactly what’s causing it.” Ah, progress.
I promise there’s a gardening angle below the fold…
