The BBC is corrupt, and this report is fraudulent:

It was only a year ago that Australia’s leading reef expert, Dr Peter Ridd, reported that coral cover was at record highs:

The world can only hope that NOAA and all those alarmist websites will soon admit that improved science has revealed the error of their ways

Adam Gottschalk, a freshly minted Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics, lamenting the lack of urgency in addressing climate change.

And does  Michael Mann really have a strong case for defamation? He himself frequently spreads false and malicious rumors about colleagues who challenged his science...

Would we really be able to find the famous coral – the badly bleached coral that had featured in The Guardian as emblematic of mass death from global warming.

They strip colour from pretty pictures because they want to make people feel sad, specifically about the corals at the Great Barrier Reef.

The Australian Academy of Science is now a joke. The post The Woke Transformation of the Australian Academy of Science first appeared on Watts Up With That?.

By its wilful abandonment of quantitative analysis, the AAS has destroyed its reputation as a source of useful scientific advice... The Australian Academy of Science is now a joke.

To be clear, the Great Barrier Reef doesn’t need saving. The mainstream media uncritically report propaganda from aerial surveys/from flybys by faux scientists who have also bought into the popular narrative.

Too many Australians, whether young or old, voting Labor, Greens, Liberal or Teal, are mostly abrogating their capacity for reason in favour of being fashionable.

It is impossible to reconcile 60% bleaching based on the official aerial survey with 0% bleaching based on the official underwater survey for John Brewer Reef, with both surveys undertaken in March 2022.

The available data shows that there has been a steady decline in both the number and intensity of cyclones since the 1970s.

I mostly still find healthy corals, cheeky fish, crystal clear warm water, blue skies and happy divers.

Professor Ridd reviews the latest data on the state of the world’s coral reefs, which is extremely encouraging, especially for the Great Barrier Reef, the largest single reef system, with record high coral cover in 2022.
