Monckton discredited
Viscount Monckton, possibly the most infuriating climate change denier ever, has been thoroughly discredited. John Abraham, professor of mechanical engineering at the University of St Thomas in Minnesota, investigated a lecture Monckton delivered in October last year, and found that not one of the claims made in this lecture withstands scrutiny:
Some of Monckton’s assertions are breath-taking in their brazen disregard of facts. He has gravely misrepresented papers and authors he refers to, in some cases he appears to have created data, graphs and trends out of thin air: at least that was how it appeared to Abraham when Monckton gave no references and his graphs and figures starkly contradicted the published science.

I doubt it’ll make much difference to avid climate change deniers, but for the rest of us it’s at least a little satisfying.
