Wobbin of Sherwood's 1000 year old oak tree is threatened by fracking!
FoE are on the case ...
The procession of profoundly ignorant twerps spouting garbage at The Guardian continues unabated and shows no sign that any of them have made a New Year Resolution to inform themselves.
I see that my status as "in pre-moderation" now has a an exclamation emoji and text in scarlet - how charming.

Technically, my resignation is a retirement event"
"I’m ‘cashing out’ with 186 published journal articles and two books."
"The reward system that is in place for university faculty members is becoming increasingly counterproductive to actually educating students to be able to think and cope in the real world"
"I no longer know what to say to students and postdocs regarding how to navigate the CRAZINESS in the field of climate science. "

tomo, You might notice that the comments on that Guardian article are quite split.
There are some zealots who truly believe that Gasland was recited by Gabriel in a cave.
And some technical experts who tore apart the Greens with a brutal use of facts. The only defence was the claim that non-Greens must be paid astro-turfers.
The fact that the only proven astro-turfers were in the pay of Russia (and so opposed to fracking in the UK) was... inconvenient.
Or possibly a discovery of projection.
Seriously, check out the comments on that Guardian article.
They are revealing of the Green mindset; paranoid and defensive.
