So it hits nearly 15 degrees in Scotchland and they blame the fires on climate change 🤷‍♂️

Here a few examples of the factual errors, omission of relevant information and sheer bias which have featured in BBC climate reporting just in the last year or so:

  • The BBC reported that the 2021 Atlantic hurricane season was “the third most active on record”. It was not; there have been 32 years with a higher count.
  • The BBC claimed last summer that “hurricanes are among the most violent storms on Earth and there’s evidence they’re getting more powerful”. But according to the hurricane experts at the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, there has been no increase in the frequency or intensity of Atlantic hurricanes since the late 1800s.
  • A claim that “punishing weather conditions linked to climate change have eroded so much of the coast at Happisburgh, Norfolk”. The BBC have been unable to provide evidence for this, and the British Geological Society say that the coastline has been eroding at the same rate as now for the past 5,000 years.
  • In October 2021, the BBC claimed that heat pumps are much cheaper to run than gas boilers. The opposite is the case, as the BBC eventually admitted.
  • In October 2022, the BBC reported that the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard had warmed by 4°C in the last 50 years. They failed to report that temperatures there plunged by almost as much between 1950 and 1970.
  • The BBC reported at the time of last summer’s Pakistan floods that one third of the country had been submerged. The real figure, as evidenced by NASA satellites, was less than 10%.
  • Last year Sri Lanka experienced a catastrophic collapse in farming output, following a ban on imported fertiliser, which was designed purely to reduce GHG emissions. The BBC has been extremely reluctant to publicise the real reason, instead first blaming the food shortages on Putin, and then claiming that the ban was an attempt to “protect dwindling foreign currency reserves”.
  • A classic example of BBC deception appeared in a recent report on solar power, when it published a graph showing solar power now accounted for more than 10% of the world’s generating capacity. They omitted the fact that, because solar power is so intermittent, it only accounts for 3% of the world’s actual electricity.
  • The BBC often regurgitates propaganda from official bodies without any attempt to challenge or fact check. Last year they uncritically reported the World Meteorological Organisation’s claims that “extreme weather events are the new normal”. There is no evidence that extreme weather is getting worse, something which even the IPCC has been forced to admit.
  • According to the BBC, a sighting of European bee-eaters in England last year was “a worrying sign of how our climate is changing”. British bird books are full of details of past sightings as far back as the 18th Century.
  • One particularly silly study found willing support from the BBC last year, claiming that British trees are at risk from “drier weather under climate change”, even though the country has been getting wetter!
  • In July 2022, the BBC reported that England had its driest start to the year since 1976. In fact it had only been the driest since 2010.
  • It was very hot in Delhi last May. The BBC was quick to blame it on climate change, with claims of a new record high temperature in Delhi. In fact, none of the long-running weather stations showed a record, with data at the Indian Meteorological Dept’s base station in Delhi proving that it was more than a degree hotter in May 1944.
  • It was dry in February this year, but the BBC’s claims of water shortages were simply not credible. So they included in their report a photo of a near-empty reservoir, which was quickly proved to have been taken two summers previously.
  • The BBC was eager to report that the U.K. heatwave last July had killed more than 3,000 people. However, the Office for National Statistics analysis, on which the BBC’s claims were based, actually said no such thing. It also pointed out that excess deaths had been running at high levels throughout the spring, summer and autumn of last year.
  • The BBC’s green bias is on display all the time, exemplified by its choice of interviewees and experts. In March 2022, Radio 4 broadcast a half-hour programme considering whether Shell should develop the massive Cambo oil field off the Shetland Islands. All three interviewees were ardent lobbyists for renewable energy, so unsurprisingly they argued against Cambo, something for which the BBC was forced to apologise for.
  • Only two weeks ago, the wretched BBC claimed that the recent tragic floods in Italy were due to climate change, even though such floods have been only too common in the past.

What is telling is things like this

Breaking records: The UK’s renewable energy in numbers​


Despite in some areas renewables meeting over 40 percent of our need, none of this saving seems to be passed on to the environmental concerns figures. They rarely go down or reflect the savings we are making.
 
On the whole, scaffolders aren't to be messed with...I know quite a few and they all have a rep as being a bit unhinged.

I thought the vid might have been a bit more...explosive 🤣
Two old mates of mine are scaffolders and yeah a pair of fucking crazy fuckers, great to go on the piss with!! :ROFLMAO:

I was going to work for one of them, he offered to take me on but a week before i was going to start i broke my left arm, my Ulna and Radius.

I was out of work for 14 months with that, it was the same year the 916 came out and he bought one, he bought a brand new Fireblade when they came out and came round my gaff gave me the keys and said off you then, crazy fucker, he said give it the beans as he didn't give a fuck about running it in. He was going to let me have a spin on the 916 but hard to ride with one working arm!:rolleyes:

No it’s about 6 days before the world ends according to the high priestess
but look on the bright side, we won’t be able to take the piss out of your never ending project anymore 😂
It's only been a year 🤪
 
"The blowing up of the Kakhovka dam,

the blowing up of the Russian pipeline,

or the Ohio train wreck and chemical spill,

taken on its own would qualify as the

worst environmental disaster in decades.


Yet we've had all three of them occur back-to-back
in a matter of months, and neither Greta Thunberg
nor any other voice in the environmental movement
has said a word. That right there tells
you that the entire environmental movement
is nothing but a fraud and a hoax."
 
Most are advised by ESG driven companies which is a "holostic" way of avoiding tax and moving money around the world with minimal outside intervention.
