This is starting to look a bit bizarre. As I mentioned (twice) earlier, I go through a slew of liberal weblogs every day--Atrios, DeLong, Kleiman, Yglesias, Tapped, Crooked Timber and Kevin Drum). They always have some kind of post on global climate change. But for the last week, there's nothing. It seems to have disappeared from the liberal agenda.
I'm actually pleased, because my fellow liberals don't normally make sense on the issue. But it's weird. Just to check, I'm following other well-known webloggers right now, Republicans and Democrats--and they don't have anything either. Megan McCardle, nothing for over a week. Andrew Sullivan--nothing. Ross Douthat--nothing. Marc Ambinder--nothing. Ta Nehisi Coates--thought he had one, but it was about eating greens, not Greens... nothing. James Fallows--two posts about pollution in Beijing, but nothing about the climate implications. Just dirty air. Jeffrey Goldberg--nothing. Ezra Klein--nothing.
Okay, let's check some more. Ann Althouse--nothing. Daily Kos--nothing. No, that's it. I'm calling it. Global climate change has dropped off the face of the earth.
