It is alarming how the BBC still continues to be used as a major propaganda machine on a range of different topics, such as Climate Change. It is used to push the single eco-loony agenda which concludes that humanity is some form of abomination and should be punished.
The eco-loonies have been trying to punish humanity for decades. In the more recent times they’ve latched on to the unproven idea that the planet is warming, and it is warming because of the activities of humanity. This is their latest scare, and despite their predictions over the decades having not even slightly come true, they’ve been trying to take huge taxes off of us, and send us into fuel poverty whilst getting richer and taking more and more of our money.
I don’t believe it is a deliberate editorial policy as such within the BBC (I bloody hope it isn’t), but I suspect that the reports are produced in such a biased way due to the journalists themselves having been schooled and brainwashed to take as read the fact that we are experiencing man-made catastrophic global warming when we are not.
Here’s just three examples of news ‘packages’ from last week with the subtle underpinned doom-saying and blame-saying.
When the Wilkins Ice Shelf ice bridge split in the Antarctic, part of the news report package concluded:
“…scientists say its demise is a warning sign of the potentially disastrous changes in the earth’s climate.“
Erm, no it isn’t. It’s just an ice bridge that’s split. That’s what they do during the Antartic summer. And what, please tell us, are the potentially disastrous changes alluded to?
Not going to tell us?
Nope, they remain unsaid.
You don’t need to know, of course, because it’s about slowly dripping the doom and gloom idea into the public’s brain. If you allude to it enough it’ll get taken as fact, without the public having to be shown any facts.
Then, there’s a package on the current ‘dimness’ and inactivity of the sun as it enters what appears to be its Maunder Minimum (which is why the earth is currently cooling).
“[Previous Maunder Minimum] …lasted 70 years, which led to a mini-ice age. It’s led some to suggest that a similar cooling might offset the impact of climate change now…“
WTF???
So, the sun, which he tells us drove the climate change causing a mini-ice age lasting 70 years (when we skated on the Thames and so on), isn’t driving climate change these days?
The sun, into which we could fit 1,300,000 Earths because it’s so fucking huge, is now relegated to being just an aid to ‘offset’ what happens to the climate down here.
You can’t have it both ways, matey.
But he goes on, “…There’s now evidence that the sun has been dimming since 1985, and that’s not stopped the rise in global temperature caused by the burning of fossil fuel. Scientists think that the currently quiet sun is unlikely to save us from global warming.“
So, in this single report we are told the sun might save humanity, and also is unlikely to save humanity. (Bearing in mind that, according to this ‘journalist’, the sun caused the 70 year mini-ice age but won’t cause anything to happen this century!)
The problem is that there seems to be peer pressure on reporters to always include the doom and gloom scenario propaganda whenever they can, even if they contradict themselves.
And finally, in a bizarre package reporting on a company in Sussex that wants to use trees to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and then extract the carbon dioxide from the trees via some strange incineration process producing biochar, the fact that trees live on carbon dioxide much as humans live on oxygen seems to have passed the reporter by.
She says, “Trees have already given us one solution to our warming planet. They’ll happily do their bit, absorbing excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere throughout their lifetime.”
Do you suppose there’s a tree-world TV news report for tree-kind going on about “those lovely humans, hey, they are happily doing their bit absorbing all that bad oxygen, ok?“
Give us a break, love.
She concludes, “But the team are convinced that the world’s first certified biochar will help to put right our sins against the planet.“
I’ll repeat that, “Our sins against the planet.”
Yep, it’s that subtle drip drip drip of misinformation, of biased reporting, of demonising of humanity.
We have committed sins against the planet?
Dickhead!

You don't think it's deliberate?
How could it be?

Maybe churnalism is the new journalism – it's only recycling right?

Perhaps you should ask what the BBC climate correspondents qualifications are?
Can't remember reading about this on the BBC though of course, I may be wrong:

Anyway, you do better on £3.6Bn per year.
