Armageddon will have to wait, again. 03.08.2021

Climate alarmism - DiCaprio style 28.07.2021

It's the drains, not the rain. 28.07.2021

Dr. John Robson investigates the claim that flooding is getting worse because of climate change, and finds that there's no more rain than there ever was, and no more flooding in rural areas.

Paris Accords - Part 2 : All hat, no cattle. 27.07.2021

Dr. John Robson explains why even if all the signatories to the Paris climate change treaty met their targets it would do no good according to the alarmists' own models, making Paris like the Kyoto Accord all pain and no gain.
