BRIT ATTITUDES ON GLOBAL WARMING START TO CHANGE – AT 5:11 P.M. ET:  From the notoriously leftist BBC.  The scandals are having their effect:

The number of British people who are sceptical about climate change is rising, a poll for BBC News suggests.

The Populus poll of 1,001 adults found 25% did not think global warming was happening, an increase of 10% since a similar poll was conducted in November.

The percentage of respondents who said climate change was a reality had fallen from 83% in November to 75% this month.

And only 26% of those asked believed climate change was happening and "now established as largely man-made."

COMMENT:  The number of believers is still higher in the UK than in the US, where many people caught on to the "science" of global warming much earlier.  But at least Britain is moving.
