At http://thegwpf.org/science-news/2225-benny-peiser-climate-change-is-civilisation-collapse/ is an interesting piece worth reading that attacks the environmentalist idea of civilisation collapse as a result of human exploitation of old mother Gaia. Benny Peiser is of course a former prominent member of the SIS, contributing articles and organising one of the SIS Cambridge Conferences. He has form when it comes to societal collapse and catastrophism and in this article, aimed at the AGW crowd and fans of Jared Diamond, he shows he has not lost that interest by quoting the likes of Mike Baillie, Marie-Agnes Courty, David Keys, Claude Schaeffer and Harvey Weiss.
