Here’s a little puzzle for you: a dam is drained and at its bottom are found the remnants of an old farm. Do you conclude that a) the water level was once as low or lower than now, when the farm was built; or b) that the find shows
Imagine if the Morrison government announced that it was spending a quarter of a billion dollars, to build exclusive service stations for luxury vehicle owners. The media and the left would go insane. Yet, that is, effectively, what the government has just announced. If anything, the left is complaining that
It’s a bit of a mystery to the green-left why we ordinary folk tend to think that Extinction Rebellion are a bunch of upper-class nutters. I mean, who doesn’t have an Arts degree, live in an expensive inner-city suburb, and spend their spare time dressing
John Maunder Among the many climate science meetings I have attended, the most significant, at least in terms of climate change is concerned, was my involvement in the UN sponsored International Conference held 35 years ago in the beautiful town of Villach, Austria. One hundred experts from 30 countries attended
If we were to pay attention to the climate hysterics, coal is not just out of style, it’s imminently destined for the dustbin of history. But then, who apart from idiot politicians, rent-seeking corporates and those weirdo activists glueing themselves to roads, actually pays attention to the climate
Maybe there really is a Gaia, after all. Glasgow has just delivered the funniest climate change moment since protesters huddled in driving snow in Washington, chanting — against all the evidence turning their extremities blue — that “It’s getting hot in here!” Right around the British Isles, onshore and offshore, the
The delegates have barely alighted from their private jets and checked into their luxury suites and already Glasgow is shaping up to be the funniest climate flop since Copenhagen. As you might remember, the Copenhagen climate summit was torpedoed by the leaking of the Climategate emails. Suddenly, the world got
Jacinda Ardern, for all her posturing and wind-bagging about climate change, isn’t even deigning to grace the world’s biggest climate gab-fest. Probably she knew she’d be competing for the cameras with the media’s favourite climate pinup-girl. There’s nothing a diva hates worse
For all Jacinda Ardern’s posturing as the Climate Queen of the South Pacific, the hard reality of New Zealand’s greenhouse emissions is far from matching up to its virtue-signalling prime minister’s rhetoric. Hypocritically, given that the representatives of the world’s single biggest — and growing — greenhouse

Here’s a weird time-perspective for you to consider: we live closer in time to Cleopatra than she did to the building of the great pyramids. The Great Pyramid of Giza was more than 2600 years old when Cleopatra was alive. By contrast, she lived less than two thousand
Normally, news that it’s cold in Antarctica would rank somewhere behind “dog bites man”, “celebrity says something stupid” and “leftist outed as abuser”. In this case, though, the news is significant, because it’s not just cold in Antarctica, it’s really cold. Record-breaking cold. When a place
The Cargo Cult mentality is alive and well in the age of climate change alarmism. Which is hardly surprising, really: like climate alarmism, cargo cults are a millenarian belief system which imitate the outward appearances of a technologically-advanced society, in the hope that the sky gods will reward the

“People are never more sincere than when they assume their own moral superiority” Thomas Sowell In a way, it’s appropriate that this year’s global climate knees-up is being held in Glasgow, in winter. For those with eyes to see, miserable Glasgie ought to serve as a dire
