Political Incorrectness


It can't be right that employees of the State of Florida have reportedly been banned from using the terms 'climate change' and 'global warming' (http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/mar/08/florida-banned-terms-climate-change-global-warming). It is especially worrying that the State Governor, Jeb Bush, is said to be thinking of making a tilt for the Presidency of the US. I believe that the Bush family largely made their fortune with hydrocarbons. Low-lying Florida is especially at risk from climate extremes. If they can be convinced that this is a good idea, one immediately thinks of turkeys and Christmas.
