The Telegraph reports that:

Michael O'Leary, the controversial Ryanair boss, has denied the existence of man-made climate change.

Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary denies man-made climate change. His comments have struck a sour note with environmental campaigners

The chief executive is known for ruffling feathers, previously suggesting he would like to charge passengers to use the lavatory on his flights and make overweight passengers pay extra.

His latest comments, in which he said the idea man-made pollution is heating up the planet is "horse ****", have struck a sour note with environmental campaigners – something which is unlikely to unduly trouble O'Leary.

Well, the scientists couldn't convince me, but now I'm a convert. ;D

It's good to get such a scientifically articulate opinion from a respected independent and objective observer.  I feel better informed now.
