What can we do about a troll in the Global Warming category?

He has like 50 accounts, he harasses a specific user and accuses everyone he disagrees with of being that user. 

He keeps posting questions that have nothing to do with GW.

I blocked many of his accounts, but now he goes anonymous most of the time. 

Update:

Dot: we tried that. I told the specific user to ignore and report, but not many of us did. He has been there for over a year. 

LAN and Brokengirl: I mentioned in the details that I blocked many of his accounts. But he creates more and goes ''anonymous'' to insult and make false accusations. And yes I always report when his questions are against the guidelines. 

Update 2:

All good answers, but love huskies! So LAN wins :)

TY to all of you three!

Stay safe.

    Block him and/or report him if he is breaking the posting rules.

    Report all posts that are violations. That's all that can really be done. Such abusers often get their account suspended, but create another one and return. Report the nonsense posts and do not reply to them. When trolls aren't 'fed' they often get bored and go elsewhere.
