Climate alarmists have found an even more brilliant solution to the ‘problem’ of the satellite data which show there has been no global warming for nearly 19 years. A couple of months ago, you’ll recall, they merely claimed that the
Jagadish Shukla, the George Mason University climate scientist who wrote to President Obama demanding that RICO laws be used to persecute skeptics, is now facing a criminal investigation for “double dipping” his salary. This is ever so sad and in no way to
Yale University is to close its Climate & Energy Institute. With sweet serendipity, the heartbreaking announcement on the university’s website coincides with the news that the institute’s founding head Rajendra Pachauri has been formally charged with sexual harrassment. How different
Almost all the very worst MPs campaigning for Britain to remain in the European Union studied the same subject at Oxford University – Politics, Philosophy and Economics (PPE). By “worst”, I suppose I mean most especially those in government who have
After my attack on activist and environmental journalist Mark Lynas, I thought I’d test the waters with Tom Chivers who is a science editor at Buzzfeed. Chivers has been a nemesis of mine since my days at the Telegraph. A likeable,
In my last column I promised I’d name the guilty names: all those morally bankrupt, intellectually tainted, mendacious, ignorant useful idiot shills who for the last several years have assumed the mantle of scientific expertise and loftily declared that the “Pause”
The “Pause” in global warming is real – not an urban myth concocted by evil ‘deniers’ – a study has found, signalling the development of a major schism within the climate alarmist camp. “It has been claimed that the early-2000s
Rape is rape is rape. Or so the new generation of feminists would have us believe. But our left-leaning news media would beg to differ. Some kinds of rape, we know from the coverage variously afforded them by organisations like
A Zimbabwean game reserve has warned that it may have to cull 200 lions because of what it calls “the Cecil effect.” Under normal circumstances, the rights to shoot those lions would have been sold to big game hunters – bringing
The #Heathrow13 – climate activists convicted of trespassing on and disrupting Britain’s busiest airport – have been told by the judge that they face jail sentences. Oh how the heart bleeds! According to a small group of green protesters who have
Were you moved recently by the tragic tale of 150,000 penguins killed by global warming? Of course you were. The story was almost inescapable – we even ran a wires version of it here at Breitbart – because it was
My friend Michael Gove is an honourable and intelligent man so when, a few weeks ago, I read reports that he was thinking of throwing in his lot with the “Remain” camp, I rang him up in horror. “Is it
Finally the mystery of Leonardo DiCaprio’s bizarre infatuation with the wilder reaches of environmental lunacy has been revealed. 1. His head was completely messed up by a freaky Hieronymus Bosch painting his parents hung above his crib when he was a baby. 2. He is quite exceptionally stupid — more stupid than even his most ardent detractors can hitherto possibly have imagined. Here are some of the key take home points about DiCaprio which have emerged from a fawning and no-doubt world-exclusive interview with Rolling Stone.
The makers of the world’s most embarrassing ever pop albums now have some serious competition. A Canadian rapper called Baba Brinkman is crowdfunding a “scientifically peer-reviewed” record on climate change with which he hopes to defeat sceptics through the medium
The #RhodesMustFall campaign by loony entitled race hustlers to topple a statue of Cecil Rhodes at Oriel College, Oxford, of one of the university’s most generous benefactors has failed. Donors were so furious at Oriel College’s cowardice in the face of
Let me tell you the worst thing about the climate change scam. It’s not the lies, not bullying, not the perversion of the scientific method, not the establishment cover-ups, not the needless scaremongering, not the wasted money, not the nannying
Ex-pupils from a bog-standard London comprehensive school are trying to nix a visit by Homeland and Band of Brothers star Damian Lewis because he is too posh. Since Lewis was privately educated at £30,000 a year Eton, they claim, he represents a
Which of these two categories of people is more likely to murder you while you’re lying on a beach in Tunisia/shopping in the Westgate mall/enjoying a rock concert in Paris/sightseeing in Bombay/checking out the delights of Ouagadougou/watching a marathon/attending a
Britain is heading for a major energy crisis within ten years, says a report published today by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. The loss of coal by 2025, along with growth in demand and the closure of the majority of our
‘Jihadi Jack’ Letts – allegedly the first white British male to go and fight for ISIS – is a fan of the graffiti artist Banksy. Well, of course. And I’ll bet if you’d had a conversation with him before he
The US East Coast has been blanketed in global warming. Layers and layers and layers of it. But don’t worry: it’s not actually real. We know this because of the climate experts and their computer models. (H/T Tom Nelson) Here
Sick green activists have been gloating over the death of Bob Carter, the heroic climate sceptic geologist who died of a heart attack earlier this week. Here’s a selection of nasties from Australia, where Carter worked. (Knowing Bob I’m sure
Over the next few days and weeks you will hear lots and lots of stories about how 2015 was the “Hottest Year Evah”. Every time you do so, reach for your Browning. Whoever makes this claim will be an idiot,
Leonardo DiCaprio has flown by private jet to the World Economic Forum’s annual conference for sinister plutocrats and craven politicians in Davos, Switzerland, to attack the “greed” of the energy industry. “We simply cannot afford to allow the corporate greed
Professor Bob Carter, one of the world’s leading climate sceptics, has just dropped dead of a heart attack at the far too young age of 74. Perhaps it would be pushing it to say that he was driven to an early
Because the COP21 talks in Paris were a flop climate activists should take the law into their own hands and try direct action instead. So recommends Tara Smith, a lecturer in law at the University of Bangor, Wales, in an
Someone called Spike Lee is threatening to boycott this year’s Oscars for having failed to include a sufficient quota of black talent on their nominations list. This is an excellent campaign and one I shall definitely support once I’ve managed
Some rare good news from the eco wars: it looks increasingly likely that a lunatic green project to build a £1 billion tidal lagoon across Swansea Bay in South Wales is going to be scrapped. Or so reckons Christopher Booker
A senior scientist at NASA has announced in the New York Times that he has terminal cancer. This is sad. What’s sadder, though, is that he has chosen to exploit his personal tragedy for the purposes of promoting climate change
All over Britain people have woken this morning to find themselves living in a magical winter wonderland. Just to be clear, however: all that white stuff you can see outside your window is not actually real. It does not exist
The climate alarmists have come up with a brilliant new excuse to explain why there has been no “global warming” for nearly 19 years. Turns out the satellite data is lying. And to prove it they’ve come up with a glossy
Man-made global warming is our friend. According to a study in Nature, the extra CO2 generated by our burning of fossil fuels has postponed the next ice age for at least 100,000 years. The new research, published in the journal Nature, examined the
President Obama’s final State of the Union address was full of nonsense, especially on the matter closest to his heart — energy and the environment.
No one wants to buy electric cars. Americans bought just 102,600 such vehicles in 2015, a 17 percent decline from the previous year, according to researcher Autodata. Nissan Motor Co. sold 43 percent fewer of its all-electric Leaf and General Motors
David Bowie, the last truly great pop star, is dead and all Salon wants to do is turn him into some kind of proto Bruce Jenner. No, Salon. This is quite incredibly boring of you, not to mention impertinent. Obviously none
Global food prices are down for the fourth year running. International food prices dipped by 19 per cent in the last year, the fourth consecutive annual fall, due to substantial decline in dairy, sugar and veg oil prices according to
Green tractor production in Britain is at an all time high! Or so we learn from Business Green, the UK environment industry’s equivalent to Pravda, in a piece celebrating the fact that 2014 was a “record-breaking year for wind energy” with
For the first week after New Year, liberal progressive types responded to the orgy of rape and sexual molestation by Muslim immigrants in Cologne (and other European cities) by pretending it never happened. Now that the overwhelming weight of evidence has shown it definitely did
The UK Met Office has issued a statement claiming that December 2015 was the wettest month in the UK “since records* began.” This is at best dishonest and at worst a blatant lie. Its only excuse is that cunning little asterisk,
The Mayor of Cologne has suggested that local women observe a “Code of Conduct” so that they can avoid a repeat of New Year’s Eve when dozens were molested, mugged and, in at least one case, allegedly raped by an organised gang of around 1000 migrants
