Looks like Facebook Faceplanted little Miss Thunberg...
Daddy and activists revealed as authors of content on her Facebook site ..... even though she's still claiming it's all her own work urdy-doody Swedish chef style....
#1 best seller on Amazon - and still not actually released.....
- it will upset a few people......
M Courtney:yep – it raised my ire the moment the little kid threw a paddy and stormed out, straight into trouble, much the same as has been done in rather too many tacky “disaster” films (Juggernaut and Battlestar Galactica immediately spring to mind). Then we had The “Doctor” standing up in her pulpit and giving us the appropriate sermon. I’m still trying to come to terms with Jodie Whitaker’s version on the Doctor (a bit too intense for my liking…), but, oh, purleeze, BBC…..
Today, Dr Who did AGW.
In the process they changed the way that time travel works in the show. Which is annoying to us Whovians.
And it was so unsubtle that even Guardian commenters are comparing it to the He Man cartoon.
The BBC just killed its most commercial franchise as a sacrifice to AGW.
Madness, a gift from the Gods.
13:30pm Radio 4 Part 2 " James Landale, now explores what will happen as countries around the world develop enough renewable energy to end their dependence on hydrocarbons and assesses the geopolitical consequences of this energy revolution."
Unlistenable cos the guests kept using the term "net zero CO2"
.. That is a PR term ,no one who is talking the real world would use that term
There is no real chance of that
If they had a realistic target say of first getting to zero growth of CO2 and then say down to 80% of todays levels that would be realism.
Super reductions are dependent on when new super fuels like fusion come into use.
BTW no Countryfile viwers tweeted about Climate

Thank you!
The concept of growing bio diesel seemed good. Issues with fuel preheating are overcome by Russians and Canadians. The Green Blob have now killed smaller diesel engines and bio diesel, and the EU has been complicit in wasting billion$ in the process. No one can recall environment health problems caused by London Taxis and buses.
Only EU subsidies could have afforded the skills to devise a combustible fuel oil that will damage diesel engines.

M Courtney,
It'll be a mercy if Dr Who is finally killed off.
Once it was a show that required a small suspension of disbelief, but now it has no rules at all. Transforming the Doctor into a wizard hasn't hurt its popularity, but it's not healthy.
Of course science is the opposite of magic but, as Clarke observed, scientific results can seem magical. So foolish reporters don't question climatologists when they have simply waved their hands and invoked "the science". The magical Dr Who is not to blame, but it sets a pattern.
BTW, I heard that there were enough submissions suggesting Dr Who for the face of the new £50 note that the mint issued a statement saying that nominations had to be for a real scientist.
