Lord Christopher Monckton

3rd Viscount Monckton of Brenchley

In November 2006, Lord Monckton wrote a science-based article in the London Sunday Telegraph explaining exactly why anthropogenic “global warming” is not a global crisis. Within two hours, the newspaper’s website had received 127,000 hits – more in a short time than any article it has ever published. In a second article, Lord Monckton pointed out that even if the UK went back to the Stone Age and did not even light fires the growth in Chinese would replace the UK’s entire output in less than two years. Tony Blair, then Prime Minister, quoted that point in almost every speech he made during the remainder of his premiership.

Al Gore replied to Lord Monckton’s articles and, within 24 hours, Lord Monckton had shot him out of the sky with a 24-page response, citing 60 scientific references.

In March 2007, Lord Monckton issued a challenge to Al Gore to take part with him in an internationally televised debate.

Al Gore has not had the courage to reply to Lord Monckton’s challenge, despite thrice-weekly advertisements proclaiming the challenge in the New York Times, LA Times, Washington Post, and other leading national newspapers. However, Lord Monckton has made some 50 radio appearances throughout the US in recent months.
