Now In Defense of Marxism has the second part of the article (still to be 
continued) at
http://www.marxist.com/global-warming-socialist-perspective-part-two.htm
where Brian J. Baker goes on to discuss other bêtes noirs of so much of the 
"Marxism" debate, such as
GMO food crops (see my web-site with similar arguments from 2000 on at
http://apling.freeservers.com/Foods/GMetc.htm and linked pages) and the 
idiocy of
supposed "sustainable development", organic foods and the like, as well as 
continuing his well-based arguments on the global warming nonsense.

Also see my web-site for comments on the nonsense of the "Precautionary 
Principle", at
http://apling.freeservers.com/Foods/PriceOfPrecaution.htm - dating from 
2001.

It is amazing that it practically impossible to get discussion of all 
these - so important - matters in:
    the capitalist press (apart from local papes like the Eastern Daily 
Press, in Norfolk, I must say)
    left-wing discussion groups
    scientific journals (where e.g. Chemistry World, and Chemistry and 
Industry have both had short discussions - which have been stopped by the 
editors, who cling to the attitutude of the establishmenet)

I have written umpteen letters, but the only publications I have had is in 
the EDP (Eastern Daily Press) despite my long term Fellowship of the Royal 
Society of Chemistry and other scientic organisations.
There is a *vast* programme of establishment censorship on all these 
topics - and any working scientist denying the establishment views is liable 
to lose his funding - and the best way to ensure success in seeking funds is 
to link one's research to "global warming".   Science in general  is being 
polluted by nonsensical politics, which few are willing to raise their heads 
against  - but numbers of the scientific opposition are *definitedly* 
growing and I feel sure that real world developments will leave a lot of 
people with egg on their faces before too long.
