The Annoying Orange had better beware: this crop of fruit is scary. Tsykalov is known for his provocative work with food: the series of meat sculptures he created a few years ago looks like something straight out of a Bosch...

Rarely have I witnessed such rampant troll activity as I did on my gently snarky recent blogpost Global Warming Devastates America. There's a reason for that, of course. The alarmists are losing the argument and their incoherent...

Another Little Nell moment in today's Guardian. (H/T Richard Tol). It seems that Britain's greenest town council is also turning out to be Britain's most disastrous town council. This is what happens when you put a bunch...

Recently I've acquired a second career poisoning the minds of the young in schools. Even in the very posh ones, there's always an element which is mildly appalled that someone like me has been allowed anywhere near their...

Watermelons: green on the outside, red on the inside. Environmental propaganda being used to implement another ideology is as old as the hills. So it’s about time the UN’s “climate aid” was called...

Here's some good news – via Bishop Hill – from America. A Big Oil company – Chevron – is taking legal action against a group of environmentalists for fraud and extortion: aka greenmail. The sums involved are eyewatering:...

At the weekend my old mucker David Rose reported in the Mail On Sunday the shocking news that there is 60 per cent more sea ice at the Arctic than there was this time last year...

Over the last year or so, I've been getting emails from two campaigners – Irish engineer Pat Swords and Christine Metcalfe, a retired community councillor from Argyllshire – urging me to report on their campaign...

I have just been listening to the BBC's latest professed attempt to find the reasonable middle ground on the great environmental debate. And, as ever with the BBC, it's about as neutral, balanced and informed as an Advanced...

My resolution this year is to be much more diplomatic and emollient and generally more sympathetic to the other point of view. Naah. Just kidding. But what I did think would be a good idea at the start of yet another year's...

By "global warming", I mean, of course the kind of runaway, unprecedented, catastrophic warming which George Monbiot et al have been bleating on about for the last two or three decades...

Sorry for the radio silence. I've been out winning wars. And now that we've reached at least the end of the beginning of the battle to rescue Britain from the hideous wind farm menace it's time to start naming the guilty...

Until recently George "Reverse-Cassandra" Monbiot was very, very worried about Peak Oil. Here's what he wrote in 2007: The disasters invoked by the peaking of global oil supplies can be avoided only with a “crash progamme”...

From my poolside in Puglia I was going to do you an amusing post about The Archers. I expect it would have been very funny. But sadly we shall never know. That's because I want instead to draw your attention to two important...
