Climate change deniers (Erik the Viking)

This little clip seems to be a great metaphor for climate change deniers. It’s from the 1989 movie “Erik the Viking“ and features Terry Jones (who also directed) as King Arnulf of the island nation of High Brazil. The sinking of the island is actually brought about by the gods’ displeasure at an act of violence by one of the Vikings, but the metaphor is too delicious to pass up!
