One of the things I believe climate activists have got wrong is thinking that one day there will be a reckoning, a moment, when they will finally be proved right. I no longer think this will be the case. Even when the scientific evidence is overwhelming. Even when the physical

The Guardian claims that 16 homes on a floodplain next to a river in a rainy Welsh valley are set to be abandoned "due to climate change". Give me a break, says Chris Morrison. Flooding is not getting worse.

Graham Linehan has now reposted content calling for women to be stripped of the right to vote in the United States. This is not a joke and not satire. The post explicitly argues that women should lose the franchise and frames women as a threat to law and order. By amplifying it

State of this. A GBNews presenter accusing Bangor University Staff of censoring Reform UK on campus. She’s even copied in the President of the USA. It’s a student society, and why are you campaigning on behalf of Reform UK?

The most small-minded, petulant, unintelligent display of censorship from @bangor_staff. I despair for our next generation. These so-called academics cast silence as progress and detachment from debate as strength. If they are so confident of their position, they should

French agrivoltaics trials show crops under solar panels had up to 18% higher yields, far fewer heat-stress days, cooler soils, and better animal welfare — while generating clean power. This is a win-win governments should scale now.

They haven’t.

When we see climate changing, we don't automatically jump on the human bandwagon, case closed. No, we rigorously examine and test all other reasons why climate could be changing: the sun, volcanoes, natural cycles, even something we don't know yet: could they be responsible? ..

If the science is a hoax, they could easily afford to fund science and scientists to demonstrate that. Yet they haven’t. And won’t. In fact they agree with the science. Why?

It's good to put all this in the context of deep time. Some people seem to think the last 10,000 years is somehow the 'normal'. Maybe it should be in a holiday advert. Science shows us the bigger picture about the tribulations in the past and the uncertainties ahead...

@_ClimateCraze 1) Raw data includes bias e.g. station moves, change in elevation and change in time of day of recording among others 2) If you do not take these into account then you are misleading people as John has done. 3) NOAA doesnt use USHCN anymore.

@ThomasSowell Absolute nonsense. It's not comparing now to the holocene maximum, which took 2K yrs to form and 2K more to dissipate. It's about the rate. The only thing this meme proves is that even smart people are subject to bias, esp when they stray into unfamiliar territory.
