Why so down on The Great Moonbat?

I agree that his writing isn't exactly the most gripping ever committed to paper, but you could do much worse than to read Monbiot. For a pure journalist, he is actually pretty science-based most of the time. A bit too anti-GMO for my tastes, but he definitely calls out the hysterical "Frankenfood" and anti-nuke cranks.

I thought that the article was pretty positive compared with most of the hatchet jobs around here. ADK^{...I'll sell your homology!} 15:52, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

I mostly agree with him, but crikey his writing's tedious - David Gerard (talk) 09:21, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

I might add that, before I finally had enough of THE GUARDIAN and went to REUTERS instead, I could say of Monbiot: "By no means always wrong, but always off-putting." -- Greg Goebel (MrG) ^{— Unsigned, by: 75.166.76.161 / talk / contribs}
