Graham pens another letter of protest - let's join him


Beneath the Wisteria supporter, Graham Parton, also disillusioned by the recent publication by Melbourne’s Age of a comment piece from John McLean, has penned at Letter to the Editor.
Here is Graham’s letter:
 
Less than a week after the overwhelming rejection of the climate deniers view put forward by Maurice Newman you publish another one, this time from John McLean of the widely discredited “International Climate Science Coalition”. Unfortunately this just perpetuates the notion that there is some kind of “debate” about whether or not the climate is changing when in fact we’ve known for years that it is and that it’s humans who are causing it. You’d think after the hottest year since records began and all the other hottest ever records being broken we’d be ready to move on to what we are going to do about stopping it rather than still hearing from people who don’t even think it’s happening.
 
Beneath the Wisteria supporters are encouraged to write letters to local and national newspapers, along with taking the message about the need to mitigate our carbon dioxide emissions to their local members of parliament, State or Federal.
Beyond, the message also needs to be heard by Local Government and so your councillors also need to hear about the unfolding difficulties that will arise from climate change.
