offsite link There?s Nothing ?Scientific? About Climate Models Tue Apr 23, 2024 13:00 | Paul Sutton
On BBC Politics Chris Packham claimed "something called science" is evidence that the recent Dubai flooding was caused by climate change. But there's nothing scientific about the models that 'prove' that, says Paul Sutton.

The Church of England announced £100m in reparations for profiting from the slave trade. But now a historian has shown this is a mistake: the church never profited from slavery. Will the woke ever get their history right?

offsite link Profits of Doom Tue Apr 23, 2024 09:00 | Ben Pile
There is, sadly, no Big Oil money sloshing around to handsomely remunerate climate sceptical journalism. But on the other side, the green prophets of doom are doing very well out of the whole thing, says Ben Pile.

Is it time for St. George to stand aside for St. George Floyd? Or is there another makeover of England's patron saint that would make him acceptable to the professionally offended and anti-English crowd?

StopEsso - Stop Bush protest at Shannon

category clare | environment | news report author Monday June 28, 2004 19:32author by Will St. Leger - StopEsso Irelandauthor address www.stopesso.ie Report this post to the editors

StopEsso Ireland sent a clear message to President Bush that the US Government must act now to tackle climate change instead of wrecking international agreements like the Kyoto Protocol in an effort to secure the future dirty business of their oil buddies, Esso.

StopEsso Ireland sent a clear message to President Bush that the US Government must act now to tackle climate change instead of wrecking international agreements like the Kyoto Protocol in an effort to secure the future dirty business of their oil buddies, Esso.

The group hung a large banner over the motorway leading to Shannon Airport during the president's visit to Ireland. Esso (ExxonMobil in the US) was behind Bush’s decision to pull the US out of the Kyoto Protocol, the only international agreement to tackle climate change.

Esso, the world’s largest oil company, funds anti Kyoto lobbyists, promotes climate change sceptics and continues to deny that burning fossil fuels is the primary cause of global warming.

StopEsso Ireland are calling on Bush to act now to tackle the most urgent problem facing the world today, and put people and the environment above the interests of the oil majors.

StopEsso Ireland’s spokesperson, Will St. Leger said, “Bush is clearly more interested in securing his re-election than in taking any real international leadership in the fight against climate change. Instead of protecting the business interests of companies like Esso, he should be protecting the future of us all. If Bush and Esso choose to wreck the planet then we choose not to buy Esso.”
