Ah yes,

"John Prescott has landed his most bizarre job yet - as professor of climate change at a Chinese university.

Prezza has confounded his critics with his new role at Xiamen University on the south east coast of the country where he will give occasional lectures on global warming."

WTF?

Hang on a minute! He's already opened his mouth:

"Developed countries will have to take the lead in fighting climate change by carrying a greater share of the burden of reducing emissions, according to John Prescott.

The former deputy Prime Minister will say at the launch in east London of a new climate change campaign called 'New Earth Deal': "Securing a deal at Copenhagen will be 10 times more difficult than Kyoto."

New Earth Deal?  :-?
 
"Headed by the Council of Europe’s Rapporteur on climate change, Kyoto negotiator and former UK Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott MP, New Earth Deal is campaigning for an agreement that is definitive, equitable and effective.

You can find out what you can do to play your part in securing that deal in our Action section.

New Earth Deal has also partnered with the environmental film The Age of Stupid to do a New Earth Deal tour of schools in England in September, explaining the climate change negotiation process and the need for a deal in Copenhagen."

Political campaigning in schools is in contravention of the Education Act.

Age of Stupid?
Haven't seen it, wouldn't want to. I like this review, though:

"The film is so cretinous it makes Michael Moore look like a modern-day Bergman; so scientifically vacuous it makes Lysenko look like Einstein; so achingly middle-class it makes The Good Life look like a kitchen-sink drama about miners’ wives.

Indeed, the film’s only virtue - and admittedly this is a big plus in its favour - is that it has exposed finally, beyond all reasonable doubt, the ugly elitism and end-of-days mania of the environmentalist movement."

I won't let my kids be brainwashed by it. If they come to my kids' school, I'll have them off sick.

sounds like he has hitched his wagon to another (even bigger) gravy train.
I would imagine his incoherent rantings will make about as much sense to the chinese as they did to us.

...that's the thing which twists my diddies about all of this concern for the environment - the utter arrogance of some who think that they can ultimately alter or control the way this planet takes care of its own business.

What utter tripe!

No need to be wasteful however, it makes sense to be prudent with whatever resources remain.
