The last episode of the high rating "Frozen Planet" was on TV here tonight, which reminded me of this story in The Daily Mail (of all places) noting that US viewers wont get to see it because it is about global warming, now apparently a taboo topic - Climate change episode of Frozen Planet wont be shown in the U.S. as viewers dont believe in global warming. Once science is abandoned you an only assume collapse wont be far behind...

An episode of the BBCs Frozen Planet documentary series that looks at climate change has been scrapped in the U.S., where many are hostile to the idea of global warming.

British viewers will see all seven episodes of the multi-million-pound nature series throughout the Autumn.

But U.S. audiences will not be shown the last episode, which looks at the threat posed by man to the natural world.

It is feared a show that preaches global warming could upset viewers in the U.S., where around half of people do not believe in climate change.
