Bratty Offspring of Nutty Democrats

Last week in London two little bratty girls, aged 21, went into the National Gallery, opened two cans of soup and threw the contents at Van Gogh's Sunflowers, then spread glue on their hands and glued themselves to the wall, all to protest climate change.

Sadly the girls are obviously demented, most likely raised by similarly demented parents who talk such nonsense at home. They have not been told that most climate change is caused by factors that include oceanic processes (such as oceanic circulation), biotic processes (e.g., plants), variations in solar radiation received by Earth, plate tectonics and volcanic eruptions. 

The good news is that the painting is perfectly fine, having been protected by a sheet of glass. The bad news is that more and more people believe this rot, as if the Earth's climate has not always been changing. Didn't they ever hear of the Ice Age? Or the Great Dust Bowl? Or the following:

"55 million years ago – Permian-Eocene Thermal Maximum Over a period of about 100,000 years, the planet slowly warmed by between 5° and 8° Celsius (9°-14.4° Fahrenheit). What caused the warming? Some scientists point to a volcanic eruption that prompted marine sediments to release the powerful greenhouse gas methane into the atmosphere. Oceans across the globe reached tropical temperatures, causing the extinction of a significant percentage of marine life."
