Howard launches 'anti-warmist manual' for kids [View all]

Former prime minister John Howard has lent his support to a book aimed at school children which argues the theory of human-induced global warming is a scam.

Last night, the former prime minister launched the publication, the latest from controversial geologist Professor Ian Plimer.

The book, called How to Get Expelled From School, rejects the predominant scientific opinion on climate change.

The book is billed as "an anti-global warmist manual for the younger reader".

Shows that his 2007 pre-election promise to act on climate change was a non-core promise and would have been ditched as soon as he won. I try not to hate people, but for this little twerp, I make an exception.
