Remember Lushy’s Second Law of the Media? When an article claims, ‘science says…’ or ‘new study shows…’, assume that it doesn’t until proven otherwise. A recent spate of lurid media headlines provide yet another case study in why you shouldn’t take the legacy media at their word.
Owen Cumming particle.scitech.org.au Carbon dating is how we determine the age of fossils and relics from our past. But how does it actually work? WA is home to the earliest fossil evidence of life and human culture on Earth. But when an archaeologist reveals a relic or
Watching old sitcoms can be an instructive exercise: mostly in the continuing delusions of the leftists who’ve dominated television since the middle 60s. For instance, who can watch old episodes of All in the Family and not feel a nagging twinge that, on at least some essentials, “bigoted” Archie
Oh, boy: right again. Way back in May, 2020, I wrote that Wearing a Mask Is Useless Showing Off. For all the screeching from Pulpits of Truth about “harmful disinformation”, I was right. Especially about the “useless” bit. It’s not that I’m any great sage, or “expert”, either.

Despite the incessant shrieking of the usual suspects, there’s little evidence that the Earth is in the grip of a “Sixth Mass Extinction”. There is, after all, no surer sign that an idea is completely and utterly discredited than Paul Ehrlich promoting it. But there may well be a
You logically shouldn’t judge an argument by who made it… but there are some people who are so consistently wrong that, whatever they say, the opposite is almost certain to be true. So there’s no surer proof that hysteria over the so-called “Sixth Mass Extinction” is as baseless
J M White It all began with organ donations. We were told our gift of our organs could save lives and they do. Surrogacy has been perfected. This is a type of temporary organ donation. Initially, women agreed to rent-a-womb under the misapprehension that they were doing a good deed,
Anyone who thinks The Science™ of climate change is “settled” has not only never read the serious climate science literature, they’ve almost certainly never talked to a great many climate scientists. What the legacy media and politicians serve up to you as “climate science” is, in fact, cherry-picked and
Dave Patterson While the Department of Defence is spending billions to counteract climate change, no one is talking about a real geologic phenomenon. Scientists have revealed the Earth’s magnetic poles are moving. That sounds significant, yet very little is being said in national security circles about what the magnetic
It looks like the world is starting to finally wake up to the dangers of puberty blockers. The Italian Psychoanalytic Society has written to the country’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni expressing “great concern” about the use of puberty blockers with children and calling for “rigorous scientific discussion” of youth
It’s something we all learn in high school biology: plants “breathe in” carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Animals breathe in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide. The only problem is that that isn’t the whole story. Nothing in nature is 100% clear-cut or efficient. Humans (and other animals) don’
Since the beginning of the Wuhan Pandemic, the big question has been: just how bad is it? From the very first, answers became rapidly polarised between absolute conviction that it was a death sentence on par with the Spanish Flu or the Black Death, and handwaving dismissal as “just like

Shane Cronin Professor of Earth Sciences University of Auckland The Kingdom of Tonga exploded into global news on January 15 last year with one of the most spectacular and violent volcanic eruptions ever seen.

Are there sparkly vampires in Strachan, Tasmania? In Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight books, the bedazzled bloodsuckers of the Cullen family set up home in the Pacific Northwest town of Forks because the town experiences rain on an average 212 days of the year. Tasmanians likewise say that, in Strachan, on
