The Globe and Mail gets it badly wrong today.
In its masthead editorial about a report showing how Canada can meet emissions reduction targets that scientists tell us we must make to stop our atmosphere from deteriorating, it tries to equate protecting polluters with national unity, and also gives politicians a blank cheque to simply give up on science itself.
Luckily, Globe columnists were more balanced. John Ibbitson summarized "Better a decade of discomfort, perhaps, than a century of misery." And Jeffrey Simpson thought of the modelling:
"Scaremongers would have to eat their words if they gave this study a fair-minded report, but so, too, would those who paint cost-free scenarios of reducing emissions."
