“A little modesty might suit you better” – Count von Strack, Amadeus I have to admit that it pains me somewhat to write this piece, because I was briefly acquainted with Professor Tim Flannery, many years ago. While he was an affable enough fellow, even then he was given to some
It’s easy to dislike Greta Thunberg, a scowling enfant terrible with, as my Mum used to say, “a face like a smacked bum”. But that may be too hasty a judgement. As more details emerge of Thunberg’s self-confessed cognitive disabilities, one is more inclined to pity. Thunberg, if
“Y’know you’re soaking in it; global warming that is” “But Madge, it’s water. Global warming is carbon, or something.” “Carbon dioxide? No; it’s not. It’s dihydrogen monoxide. That’s just a fancy way of saying water. Water is responsible for the greenhouse effect on our
As the media have collaborated to bombard the populace with environmental and climate doom propaganda, it is only fair and reasonable to hold their feet to the fire (as it were) and examine past media promoted predictions that have failed to materialise.
