The idea that we are suffering a sixth mass extinction is little more than the invention of climate activists, led by agitprop operations like the World Wildlife Fund. The claim certainly isn’t backed up by dead bodies.
A robust exchange of letters between a BBC climate producer and a former Top Gear producer shines a light on the BBC's willingness to broadcast alarmist climate stories with no basis in fact.
Slowly and surely the forces of climate science disinformation reach out from their academic bases to throttle debate and proscribe off-message reporting. They have conveniently forgotten the lesson of Climategate.
In a major re-evaluation of data from weather balloons rising through the troposphere, scientists have confirmed that temperatures have mostly paused since around 1998.
You might think that if you debunk patently silly extreme weather claims, the entire fear agenda will go away. Think again. Climate change is now firmly embedded in the culture wars surrounding race, identity and gender.
The EU is to approve a gas sharing plan should Russia cut supplies, under which member states will have to share gas as well as ration energy in a way that doesn’t favour those member states with alternative suppliers.
The UK Met Office's latest climate scare story is to predict that a jump in global temperatures of half a degree may occur in the next five years. But what's the truth behind it?
US green outfit Climate Central is feeding misinformation to UK local media, urging them to run scare stories of 17 metre sea rises in 30 years, despite seas only rising by max 2mm a year, or 6cm in 30 years.
The relentless catastrophising of 'extreme' weather is becoming almost a daily occurrence at the BBC, but the reality in the data is very different from the alarmist picture presented.
