Warming to their subject

There is no more polarizing hot-button issue than what to do about climate change, and nobody closer to the debate’s frozen-ground zero than European cartoonists this week. Norway’s Herb took the bear’s-eye-view. The Netherlands’ Van Dam drew the definition of dithering. And Denmark’s own Pep penned a poignant (what else?) sunflower. If Jyllands- Posten, in Pep’s credit line, rings a bell, that’s the paper that published the Mohammed cartoons whose riotous aftermath no doubt contributed in some way to global warming.
