Fox’s Minority Report offered us a look at the world after climate change catastrophe on Monday night. On an episode titled “Fiddler’s Neck,” Detective Vega (Meagan Good) along with pre-cogs Dash (Stark Sands) and Arthur (Nick Zano) head back to their hometown. A little place called, you guessed it, Fiddler’s Neck.

During an interview with Secretary of State John Kerry at a State Department climate forum on Tuesday, NBC chief foreign affairs correspondent Andrea Mitchell urged the Secretary to slam the GOP: “Republican candidates are not only silent on the subject, they are climate deniers. And even candidates who led the way in 2008, the nominee [John McCain], is now silent on the subject because of Tea Party challenges to himself and to others.”

Kerry ranted: “...when I hear a United States senator say, ‘I'm not a scientist so I can't make a judgment,’ or a candidate for president, for that matter, I'm absolutely astounded. It's incomprehensible that a grown-up who has been to high school and college in the United States of America disqualifies themselves because they're not a scientist...”

Philippe Verdier, a popular weatherman on the France 2 television channel, found himself suddenly unemployed after publishing a book entitled Climate Investigation in which he charges the “climate change industry” is “a war machine whose aim is to keep us in fear.”

According to an article written by James Delingpole at the Breitbart news website, “this went down very badly with his employer, which is funded by the French government and is ideologically committed to promoting the global warming scare narrative.”

The "mainstream media" came under attack at Salon.com on Tuesday. Paul Rosenberg raged against the Associated Press for refusing to use the term ‘climate denier’ after activists on the Left demanded that. Rosenberg argued that denier was more appropriate than skeptic or doubter, and gave undeserved legitimacy to the skeptic movement. Rosenberg would continue on to describe how Climate Change, or in this case, Global Warming, would lead to more fatalities than the Holocaust, claiming that Climate Denial is worse than Holocaust Denial.

Asked to name something that stands alone, a lot of people would say, “The cheese.” To New York magazine's Jonathan Chait, another reasonable answer is “the Republican party,” at least in regard to global warming specifically and hatred of government in general.

Chait’s main point is that the GOP is extremist not only in an American context but also by international standards: “Of all the major conservative parties in the democratic world, the Republican Party stands alone in its denial of the legitimacy of climate science…The fervent commitment to supply-side economics is also an almost uniquely American idea. The GOP is the only major democratic party in the world that opposes the principle of universal health insurance. The virulence of anti-government ideology in the United States has no parallel anywhere in the world.”
