  1. Very few intelligent people now believe what the BBC has to say, on anything. It's been proven time and time again that they are biased towards ideologies mainly on the left. Here's just ONE recent piece of objective research: "The BBC breached its own editorial guidelines more than 1,500 times during the height of the Israel-Hamas war, a damning report has found. The report revealed a “deeply worrying pattern of bias” against Israel, according to its authors who analysed four months of the BBC’s output across television, radio, online news, podcasts and social media. The research, led by British lawyer Trevor Asserson, also found that Israel was associated with genocide more than 14 times more than Hamas in the corporation’s coverage of the conflict. On Saturday, Danny Cohen, a former BBC executive, warned that there was now an “institutional crisis” at the national broadcaster and called for an independent inquiry into its coverage of the Israel-Hamas war."

    Their bias has been proven with independent research on many MORE topics, from its anti-Brexit stance to its pro-EU reporting; from pro-trans extremism to antagonistic reporting on women who stand up for women's rights like JK Rowling; from Climate Alarmism (like Cox in the above clip) to an anti-British history and anti-British culture stance. Their credibility has been dismantled after years of biased reporting and a large slice of the British public have now woken up to this trend and are sick and tired of being lectured to by a leftist organisation which refuses to give us balanced views. For example:

    "THE BBC lost around half a million licence fee payers year on year, according to its annual report. At the end of the 2023-24 financial year, there were 23.9 million TV licences in effect, a drop of 500,000 from the 24.4 million at the end of 2022-23. " The Guardian.

  2. CO2 levels have been FALLING. Looking at the geological record, it shows CO2 levels in the Cambrian Period (500 million years ago) was 5,000-7,000 ppm. By the Devonian Period (400 million years ago) it had dropped to 4,000 ppm. By the Jurassic Period it was 2,500 ppm. As the Cretaceous Period came to a close (60 million years ago), CO2 had dropped further to 1,000 ppm. Notice something? Atmospheric CO2 has been falling since the dawn of the fossil record.

    There have been peaks and troughs, but the trend has been ever downwards. (One huge trough was in the Carboniferous Period which took a lot of CO2 out of the atmosphere due to the huge explosion in plant life and marine flora & fauna i.e., massive carbon rich deposits eventually formed Limestone, Chalk, and trillions and trillions of marine and fluvial shells).

    In the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM; 18,000–20,000 years ago) and in previous glacial periods, atmospheric CO2 dropped to around 180–190 ppm, which is amongst the lowest concentrations ever seen in the evolution of land plants.

    Experiments by Laci Gerhart and Joy Ward in 2010 ("Plant responses to low [CO2] of the past", University of Kansas) demonstrated that an approximate minimum level of CO2 for plants to survive was around 170ppm.

    So, plant life came perilously close to being wiped out during the last few ice ages, as CO2 levels dropped close to the minimum levels for plants. The CO2 trend shows it has dropped drastically over the last 500 million years, from around 7,000 ppm to 180 ppm.

    But then humans turned up and started spreading across the planet. By the PRE-INDUSTRIAL (and pre-oil production) period i.e., 16-17th centuries, CO2 started to rise – to around 280 ppm.

    By the 2000s, CO2 had risen to about 420ppm. Remember, it had been c7,000ppm. Some studies indicate it's been as high as 9,000 ppm.

    What does this mean?

    Well, we are currently in one of the Earth’s natural warming periods – known as an interglacial period (this one is called the Holocene – the current geological epoch, which covers the last 11,700 years).

    It looks like human activity may just have saved the worlds plant life – at least as far as the production of atmospheric CO2 goes – because CO2 is the vital gas of life for all living plants on planet earth.

  3. We can sort this easy, get on board or the children will use AI and GE.
    We would.
    Enjoy your entropy, a consencus of many who gave you a way to survive in a city where we can all crap.

  4. THE "CONSENSUS"…Once believed the Sun orbited around the earth. Scientist who disputed this ( Galileo Galilei) were jailed/imprisoned for their authentic scientific conclusion… aka, Misinformation.😮

  5. I wonder why so many normal members of the general public are so sure that "it's all a hoax" – just like everything is just all a big hoax these days? I wonder if it's just too difficult to do any real reading, but reading about science is difficult. Debate apparently "doesn't happen" and yet the meaning of data is disputed, fairly, all the time….Hence why there really is a consensus about the real science. NASA manipulating data? To what end? I would say it's more likely this: It's very, very easy to be a denier of something you don't like, and it's psychologically comforting to not have think about difficult things. Yet people would really rather listen to folk who have precisely zero expertise in this area…because its just easier. Most people are not honest enough with themselves to go and admit that they know very little about what they talk about.

    "It's all manipulation". By whom and why? Never have I heard a convincing answer to this.

  6. God bless you Malcolm Roberts. You were the voice of reason in a den of wolves,wolverines and clowns pretending to know the truth and hiding behind the vail of "consensus"

  7. Shameless liar, using awful debunked stats fooling the masses. How do you sleep at night. Read the scientific papers yourself folks it’s not difficult. Then you’ll realise it’s a trillion dollar scam and getting used to bring in a global government. YOU ARE BEING LIED TO,, do your own research.

  8. Occurred to me there is a slight problem here: geophysics is where all the oil drilling scientists have been recruited from historically, ie fossil industry will naturally be entrenched in these programs. But it's also the background of many climate scientists. So you have generations of 'climate scientists' who were funded by fossil fuels since kindergarden.

    Ok here's number one that can be done about it: remove the old geophysicists from the discussion/don't give them seniority. They are literally products of the fossil fuel industry, because back then there was no climate science.

    'Top' old climate scientists:
    Stefan Rahmstorf: equivalent of a community college degree in geophysics
    Michael Oppenheimer: he has a phd in chemical physics which is a material science degree!

  9. 1:03 by who? By whoever settles the weather stations for example, that 96% of in the US for example don't meet standards, they are too close to the sources of articial heat. According to some estimate, if that were not the case, half of global warming would have been eliminated in US. And it is like that in Europe as well.

  10. Another lying young academic. I have a PhD in chemistry and also a math degree and I've been questioning this for many years. Over that time I've learned that almost every one of my friends who also have PhDs in physical sciences or engineering question these conclusions. They love showing graphs that start in 1970 or even in the 1700s (the last little ice age) to "prove" their points. Every single prediction done by the IPCC has missed on the high side – sometimes by quite a bit of what has actually happened. It is insulting that they try to use "consensus" or politicians to prove their points. Science is based on facts, not your interpretation of those facts. Unfortunately, many of today's scientists let their feelings and political leanings come into play – in both directions.

  11. It's amazing how so many people can deny climate change is happening. People who hold zero scientific qualification trusting the politicians and bad faith actor over the vast scientific community.

  12. The earth has been warming since the last ice aged peaked and began to wane. It's a natural process. We might warm up to tropical levels, or, we might not. One massive volcanic explosion and the warming process will be interrupted. It's happened before. The natural world has power. We only belive we do.
