The Guardian has responded to the death of psychopathic ISIS terrorist Jihadi John as only the Guardian knows how: by reviving a charming, Facebook-style photo montage showing the martyred victim’s tragic journey from “shy, football-loving boy to Isis killer”. If you

Scientists have discovered the cause of the world’s second deadliest environmental threat after global warming. And the news really couldn’t be worse for the greenies. It seems that Ocean Acidification is not, after all, the result of man’s selfishness and

Bjørn “Skeptical Environmentalist” Lomborg has been doing the math on global warming – and it’s worse than we thought. Even if every nation in the world adheres to its climate change commitments by 2030 the only difference it will make to

President Obama has just nixed America’s contribution to the biggest oil clean-up operation in history. Of course, that’s not quite how he chose to spin his decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline. On the contrary, he claims he did it

The American Meteorological Society has weighed into the debate on the climate fraud allegedly committed by scientists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). It thinks that NOAA’s dodgy, data-fudging, parti-pris scientists should be allowed to go on spending taxpayers’

Big Oil is the new Big Tobacco and must be destroyed in the courts on RICO charges. This is the latest big idea in environmental circles – and it didn’t come from nowhere. It was in fact the invention of

China has shown the world how much it truly cares about global warming by burning significantly more dirty, carbon-unfriendly coal than it previously pretended. According to shock data released, without fanfare, by China’s statistical agency, its coal use has been about 17 per cent higher per

“Representative democracy” has failed; the private sector is “inept”; and only bigger government – led by China and the US – has the power to save the world from climate change. So says Bill Gates in a dogmatic but somewhat confused

I’m afraid I can’t stop thinking about Dr Jack Monroe’s breasts. I know that as an ex-lesbian-turned-self-declared-trans-activist this probably isn’t what she wants to hear from a middle aged cis-gendered male. I know she’s not a real doctor, it’s just an honorary

The US government’s main climate research agency has refused a request by House Republicans to release key documents concerning the controversial issue of whether or not there has been a “pause” in global warming. Despite being a public, taxpayer-funded institution,

Across Mexico, they are counting the cost of the strongest hurricane ever recorded. It may be days before we know the full tally, but already we can guess from shocked eyewitness accounts that the damage from Hurricane Patricia could run into

Much wailing and gnashing of teeth in the comments section at the Spectator which this week has gone full Yiannopoulos on the subject of the unspeakable awfulness of Third Wave Feminism. Except, on this occasion, it’s not a gay, attention-seeking bitch (or “modern

Only a period of enforced “planned austerity” can save the world from dangerous global warming, a warmist academic has claimed at a TED lecture. Alice Bows-Larkin, a climate researcher from the Tyndall Centre at the University of Manchester, said in her
