Finally, some adults in the room.
First - New York Times:
Obama’s Catastrophic Climate-Change Denial
The Obama administration’s decision to give Shell Oil the go-ahead to drill in the Arctic shows why we may never win the fight against climate change. Even in this most extreme circumstance, no one seems able to stand up to the power of the fossil fuel industry. No one ever says no.
Weepy Bill McKibben - the hypocrite. Hectoring people to use reusable bags but when he goes shopping?
Second - from The Radical Catholic:
Encyclicus Maculatus: Eco-Encyclical To Undergo Revision
According to Vaticanist Sandro Magister, Pope Francis has decided to postpone the publication of his long-awaited encyclical on the environment. The reason, according to Magister, is that the Pope realized that the document in its current state had no chance of receiving the approval of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith under the leadership of Cardinal Gerhard Müller. If it seems somewhat improper for a Cardinal to be telling a Pope what he can and can't write, don't fret, gentle reader: the text wasn't written by Pope Francis at all.
Heh...
