Science in the Time of COVID-19
There was an interesting BBC Radio 4 item, hosted by Sonia Sodha, on Science in the Time of COVID-19. If you can’t access it, there is a related Guardian article. I’ve listened to it a few times, and I’m still … Continue reading
Climategate
Climategate is a topic I’ve rarely discussed on this blog. Mostly because it’s clear that it’s not possible to have a constructive discussion with those who have different views about its significance. However, since I watched the BBC show about … Continue reading
Climate Change – The Facts
I watched BBC One’s Climate Change – The Facts, narrated by David Attenborough. A pity about the title, as it’s the same as a book with authors that include Anthony Watts, Nigel Lawson and James Delingpole, but I thought it … Continue reading
The BBC’s lack of balance
Just discovered that a new BBC Scotland news programme (The Nine) decided that it would invite Andrew Montford on to discuss the Youth Strike for Climate. Fortunately, no one else was willing to appear with him, so the segment didn’t … Continue reading

Going for the record
Just a quick post to highlight a BBC article called society set for climate change woe. You might be surprised by who was quoted as agreeing that we are about at the point where the consequences are starting to outweigh … Continue reading
BBC and the Met Office
It’s very disappointing that the Met Office has lost the contract to provide weather reporting for the BBC. It’s a world-class organisation and it’s hard to see another providing the same level of service. Maybe cheaper, but better seems unlikely. … Continue reading

Nic Lewis on Radio 4
The BBC has continued with its goal of always including someone associated with the Global Warming Policy Foundation in any segment on climate science. This morning it was Nic Lewis on Radio 4. The segment starts about 15 minutes in, … Continue reading
Some thoughts, or not
I haven’t really had a chance, or much desire, to write anything for the last few days. My previous post took a fair amount of effort, I’ve been rather busy with other things, and although there have been some interesting … Continue reading

What will they think?
I often wonder what people, in the future, will make of the overall coverage of global warming and climate change today. We’ve just released the first chapters of the IPCC’s Assessment Report 5, written by 100s of climate scientists. It … Continue reading
