During my stay in Antarctica in February/March last year I met a lot of scientists working there on different bases: Americans, Europeans, Australians, Argentinians, Chileans, Russians and even Chinese.

They were far from home, far from their universities and political systems. I couldn’t find anyone who’d deny AGW. Not a single one. And after several bottles of vodka, the opinions didn’t change. Everyone chimed in with a piece of evidence she/he had.

And there is no place on earth where you can speak more freely than Antarctica.
