Oh dear Steerpike, haven't your high priests at Greenpeace and the WWF told you that CAGW is soooooo yesterday and that they have used Rio +20 to move onto a different scare?
They have realised that,as CAGW isn't happening any more, people no longer fear it and no fear means no control. They have left a few expendable zealots behind to fight a rear guard action (perhaps your one) but when it finally collapses they will have managed to distance themselves from it.
So what I can hear you asking has replaced it? Why biodiversity and sustainable development of course.
They claim that our plant and animal species, natural resources, air and water, and our planet are in such desperate trouble that they must take control. They will then defend “biodiversity,” and to do this they will decide what “sustainable development” actually means and how it must be implemented. Oh and by the way the Rio +20 version of “biodiversity” and “sustainability” did not include humans.

Toodle pip dear boy.
