Readers will know that TheEye has no sympathy with the Great Global Warming Swindle. The temperature of the Earth has fluctuated over the short, medium and long term for its entire existence and not even Al Bore’s mansions and small airforce of private jets can dent it.

So it’s always amusing to see what AGW can be blamed for. Enjoy this snippet from the indispensable Jakarta Globe.

“Dozens of elementary school students in Cirebon, West Java were injured after the ceiling of their classroom collapsed on Wednesday.

Subagja, a fifth-grade teacher at SD Negeri Kramat III Cirebon, said the accident happened at noon, when 54 students were hard at work studying the Indonesian language.

School headmaster Sukhemi blamed the contractor who built the school, and said the builder should take responsibility for the accident.

Dedi Windiagiri, the head of the Cirebon school board, denied that the contractor was to blame. Climate change, he said, was the true cause of the accident. “I’ve already asked the contractor to fix the ceiling immediately” he said.

Good grief. Yes, stick that on the insurance claim and see how far you get, sunshine.
