4) Why have we had three cold winters in a row (with a fourth predicted) when we were told that AGW would mean that snow in the UK would be a thing of the past?

6) Why are we building more wind turbines when we need power stations running in the background to provide power when the wind doesn’t blow?
7) Why are people who question AGW derided, insulted and described as “mentally ill” by AGW supporters?
8) If the science is “settled” why do we need more money pumped into research?
