UK Guardian credits Morano with being visionary on Aussie govt policy: ‘Coal is the moral choice,’ said Morano…it is now Australia’s official political position’
UK Guardian: 'When a climate science denialist starts congratulating your country on its stance at major international climate change talks, you know things have gone decidedly bad. 'Australia gets it,' said the climate science denialist talking head Marc Morano, a man most often seen verballing peer-reviewed science on conservative American cable news channels. But Morano made another statement that seemed to be an attempt make the brains of as many greenies as possible go kaboom. “Coal is the moral choice,” said Morano. But what appeared then to be a ridiculous statement, is now Australia’s official political position. We’ve had Prime Minister Tony Abbott’s “coal is good for humanity”, the Treasurer Joe Hockey’s “we export coal to lift nations out of poverty” and the Finance Minister Matthias Cormann’s “coal is good”.
