I expect so too. Our own stupid PM says that coal is the future and it is for someone like him that still thinks it is the 1950's cold war and all. Still talking about 'prosperity' from fossil fuels so we know where his interests are. Another right wing nutter was wheeled out on a discussion panel (why do they do that? lunatic opinions are not 'balance' nor based on any facts) and she said predictably that climate change was just herd mentality.
I just wish the UN would come out and state things more clearly and not be so softly softly. I know this is as blunt and direct, dare I say hysterical, as scientists get but the audience listening is not scientists and there is still plenty of wriggle room for the invested and/or deluded.
