Why is the Financial Times Encouraging Parents to Make Their Children Anxious About Climate Change?

It’s not climate change that is the primary threat to the mental health and intellectual formation of young people in Britain and the West.

The WHO is at it Again: Climate Change Repackaged as a Health Emergency

What does not make sense is the relentless campaign to portray every health challenge as another symptom of the ‘carbon dioxide crisis’, even as the IPCC retreats from its most apocalyptic scenarios and real-world data show humanity becoming far more resilient to environmental extremes.

Attenborough’s “Facts” Seven Years On

This, of course, makes a nonsense of Attenborough’s claim that:

What we’re doing right now is we’re so rapidly changing the climate, for the first time in the world’s history people can see the impact of climate change”
