In the pub on Friday night a pal mentioned that he'd seen my name mentioned in the Independent a few days ago. I think this may have been this article by Tom Bawden responding to the SciTech committee's report on climate change communication, which cites me as saying something eminently sensible about sea-level rise.
What struck me about the article was that Mr Bawden eschewed the use of the d-word, something he has not felt constrained about in the past.
Perhaps we are having an effect.
