Skeptics win global warming debate

---

Late returns from the Munk Debate adding 50 more ballots received indicate the skeptics did even better than first thought. Lomborg and Lawson in fact achieved an eight-point shift in the audience's view and thus a 16-point swing in their favour. The final vote tally was 53% for the warmists, 47% for the skeptics, as opposed to 61% for the warmists (May and Monbiott) and 39% for the skeptics at the start.
