Crikey readers task us to task over Sinclair Davidson article yesterday on the CRU emails. Oh, and Derryn Hinch blasts The Oz.
Climate change 
Your Say: Daily Mail readers' feedback: Shame Crikey shame
Careful with that climate science, Sinclair, it’s complex
One of the biggest problems for contrarian commentators on climate change is getting to grips with the complexity of the subject, buttressed as it is by a vast weight of scientific evidence, writes Ben Eltham.
What’s really behind emissions trading?
For workers struggling to pay their bills, the CPRS is bad news. In its second year, the CPRS will probably cost the average household about $300 extra for electricity and gas, writes Peter Jones.
Political snippets: Sex, lies and hyperbole
Columnists this morning think scientists and politicians should not possess the passions of ordinary people, writes Richard Farmer.
The 12 C’s of climate alarmism
Paul Chesser’s report about the latest in the global warming debate is brought to you by the letter “C”: condoms, cattle, consensus and corruption.
Poll: It’s still the economy, stupid
This week’s Essential Report shows the ALP staying strong at 55-45, and finds, despite all the CPRS brawling, only 14% of Australians plan to vote around the issue of climate change — as opposed to 48% on the economy.
Your Say: Daily Mail readers' feedback: The politics of climate change
Crikey readers weigh in on the climate change debate.
CRU emails reveal a worrying pattern of bad behaviour
Leaked email exchanges between climate scientists stolen from the University of East Anglia are causing a rather juicy online scandal, writes Sinclair Davidson.
Bargaining over CPRS comes down to one thing: compensation
So after months of negotiations the CPRS comes down to one thing: how much should the government give to big polluters to compensate them for, or shield them from the effects of the scheme, writes Andrew Macintosh.
Smiling assassins: how Rudd is killing renewable energy
Despite strong and consistent public support, renewable energy has been held back for decades by Australian governments, writes Dr Mark Diesendorf.
What I saw on my trip to Canberra: self interest and infighting
As a fresh HSC graduate from Newcastle, Georgia Lowe was invited by GetUp to give MPs from NSW some insight into youth sentiments on climate change. She came away from Canberra with more questions and few answers.
Milne: The Coalition is surrendering its one hope
If the Coalition agrees to the government’s ETS, it surrenders the one issue it can actually fight an election on, says Glenn Milne. There’s still a broad base of voters out there who don’t believe in climate change to be won over.
The hacked emails causing climate sceptic chaos
Hundreds of private emails and documents from climate scientists have been unleashed into the wilds of the internet, and climate sceptics are calling their contents “the greatest scandal in modern science“. Ruth Brown investigates.
The Week In Faith – with Abigail and Jasper
Including the Xenuphon-Hamilton Scale of Theologiclimatery-Denialistology
You can’t moralise on climate change unless you’re a monk
Hamilton and the rest of the Australian Greens are political opportunists of the first order, but pretend to be above all that by cloaking themselves in the Colors of Giaa, writes Simon Mansfield.
The nuclear option: too slow, too costly
It’s not radioactivity or scare campaigns that are the nuclear industry’s biggest problem, it’s the maths: the numbers show that for decades to come, it will offer less and less of a solution to climate change, and simply takes too long and costs too much to develop.
Sinodinos: The environment is too important to be left to The Greens
The environment is no longer a niche issue that should remain solely in the hands of socialist Greens, says Arthur Sinodinos. Major parties can advocate for the environment without giving up on capitalism.
Apocalypse fatigue: is the public tired of climate change?
Recent polls have found both Americans and Australians are growing less concerned about the threat of global warming. Are people losing faith, or just interest? Is the relentless press coverage of climate change actually damaging the movement?
The coal industry wants your cash to save them
The coal industry realises that without massive public funding, carbon capture is dead. Without it, the coal industry and power companies locked into coal-fired power stations will, at best, be on life support, writes Bob Burton.
The science of climate change is only a small part of the discussion
Equating climate change doubters and dissenters with mass-murdering war criminals is the mark of a moral dwarf, writes Sinclair Davidson.
A radioactive issue for the Coalition?
Why has Ian Macfarlane completely reversed his opinion on Carbon Capture and Storage — from such a strong advocate of the when in government to his recent denunciation on Four Corners? asks Michael James.
Political snippets: Climate change, coast to coast
Australia’s Department of Climate Change has finally started seriously looking at future options for when Australia’s temperature rises, and further evidence of global warming from the US.
Take your CPRS and shove it
Bernard Keane is sick of Penny Wong’s tedious droning, Kevin Rudd’s sanctimony, Coalition climate denialists, Barnaby Joyce, rentseekers and everything else tied up in the never-ending CPRS debate.
Hamilton: Denying the coming climate holocaust
Which is morally worse: Holocaust denial or climate change scepticism? It sounds like a no-brainer, but the real-life consequences of climate sceptics succeeding may far outweigh those of Holocaust denialists.
