Cutting the grant for new electric and hybrid cars and start fracking, seems a resonable indication of what we are doing about it.

Dr Lindzden's speech was telling a sceptic audience what they wanted to hear.As I pointed out five days ago, the question "What are we doing about it?" has been answered.
Nobody outside takes the sceptics seriously any more. They inhabit a fantasy world.
The argument has moved on from "Is climate change happening" to "What are we doing about it?"
Nothing.
The IPCC report was published on Monday. It was read and analysed by the world's experts through the week. And the conclusion was that it is irrelevant. The correct conclusion.
If Governments have to cope with climate catastrophe in 12 years time then it would show up in the 10 year bond yield. But a lot of very clever people, who are experts on computer modelling, reviewed the flawed science and rejected it. Nothing moved.
If companies have to cope with regulation then the costs will show up in the share prices. But the shares were unaffected by such fears. The whole word has realised the green policies are not required, not workable and not going to happen.
The Sceptics occupy the real world.
The Fantasists still believe the millennial fears of 20 years ago still have nay influence. They don't.
The Age of Newsworthy AGW is over.

On the subject of nuts, the total score for peanut butter this summer was about a dozen mice of various types. The numbers tailed off by the end of August.

Even sandwich boards require nutter-free filling, as first the voting public and now the politicians, develop allergic reactions to Climate Science, and all its harmful products.
According to Cook and Lewandowky Peer Reviewed Climate Science, 97% of Climate Scientists can't be honest.

On the BBC’s The News Quiz on 12 October, starting at about 7:13, the panel takes the piss out of the latest doom-laden IPCC report with the approval of the audience.
Hopefully a tiny sign of the end of the scam. To be laughed at is death for an ideology.

I notice that you choose not to address the divergence between GISS-NASA CO2 GCM and an enormous *actual* data set.
One might have a little more respect for the alarmist congregation in climate science if they engaged with data that appears to contradict their prophesies - but as a general rule - like you - they don't. Does science advance by correcting mistakes?

Wise words, folks. Uibhist’s observation that the doommongers will simply move on to the next one is shrewd. If they had any decency they would concede that the dire predictions of 30 years ago have failed to happen - even a “so far” would help. Last week the IPCC’s “12 years to save the world” is raising a laugh except at the BBC and the Guardian, curse their commie-red eyes.
“The End is Nigh” was once the preserve of nutters in sandwich boards. Nowadays there are university faculties spouting this hogwash. Nice work if you can get it. But the end of their scam is nigh. Imagine being a Jobcentre officer with a newly redundant Climatologist before you. “Mate, you’re not even qualified to stack shelves. Don’t you have ANY useful skills? Oh, God....”

Doom and Gloom FOR Climate Scientists

The whole World will be SO much happier without Climate Scientists squandering money that could have been used for something useful and beneficial.

You and all of Climate Science have tried to "move on", and continue to obfuscate, as you have failed to prove Global Warming is happening, particularly as a result of CO2.
You should have resolved why the climate has changed in the past, before fantasising about doom.

@EM We've spent quite a lot of money across the globe reducing CO2
So how much non-warming has that bought us ?
If we'd done nothing would the temp be say 0.5C warmer than today's mean ?
