Readers will enjoy this transcript of an interview between the BBC's Adrian Goldberg and Professor Hugh Montgomery of the Lancet's health and climate thingy.
"Tell us just how how bad things are Professor".
"Well it's really, really bad Adrian. We're probably all going to die".
"I think listeners would like to know just how painful their deaths are going to be, Professor, or can I call you `sir'."
"Well, Adrian, I think it's going to be like purgatory, only more so"...
Sheesh.
