"‘Hypocrisy’: 90% of UK-Africa summit’s energy deals were in fossil fuels
Exclusive: Almost £2bn went to oil and gas despite a UK pledge to support cleaner energy in African countries"

Burning fossil fuels is better for Africa than burning wood and cow dung.

Climate Scientists should be paid and fed on cow dung. The resultant emissions would cause a net improvement to the environment.

"Air-filtering bus to launch across six regions in the UK
Nitrogen oxide emissions from Bluestar bus, trialled in Southampton, are less than a diesel car"

From the article, a link to another Guardian article......

"The diesel bus is fitted with a specially designed filter that its inventors say will remove ultra-fine particles from the air and trap them as the bus moves through the streets. The filter then allows the bus to blow out more pure air so that the air behind it is cleaner than that in front of it."

It would be cheaper and simpler to mount powerful electric fans (with filters) on to existing street furniture, but new power supplies would be required that cannot be supplied by Unreliables. So connecting them to mobile diesel generators (called " buses ") is deemed a Green Blob success story, worthy of more subsidies and associated publicity.

If it is to survive, the BBC needs to commission a new comedy programme titled "Not the Climate Change News"

I note that apparently the BBC fails to include pork in its blandishments about eating less meat. Not drawing attention to this is presumably motivated by cultural concerns.

It's getting to the point that for the BBC it isn't news unless it's climate change.

"Australian bushfires will cause jump in CO2 in atmosphere, say scientists
Fires released vast amounts of carbon dioxide and reduced vegetation, pushing planet closer to point of no return"

Does this mean that "greens" have increased CO2 emissions yet again by virtue of reduced protective burns?

Plants grow better with increased levels of CO2. The Green Blob's Guardian score another triumphant own goal. They omitted to mention the GBR Ocean Cooling due to the smoke shadowing the sea.

For a week that was supposed to be dry and sunny, it's been bloody wet and cloudy.

M. Courtney: "climate kardashian" is a brilliant description!

Climate Science ran out of reliable evidence, and Mann has proved that Climate Science can not be trusted to stand up in court to cross examination.

St Greta has been a brilliant propaganda tool, as she cannot be questioned, or held accountable or legally / financially liable for any of the Green Blob lies and misinformation she utters She has stirred up children, giving them a role model, to agitate in school, at home, further education and beyond. Politically, US Democrats and the EU celebrate her every word.

"Team St Greta" deserve every word of cynicism
