BBC environment correspondent Richard Black keeps up the column acreage on the evils of man made climate change in front page story on the BBC News website today. It even includes a photograph and caption that is a reminder to devout Catholics to believe in this new religion too: An opinion poll in 11 countries has produced what organisers term a "global mandate" for action on climate change.

Richard North analyses the results, but you have to ask questions about this survey on attitudes to climate change in southern and eastern England. The BBC tell us that "a questionnaire survey was filled in by 551 people, from a range of ages and backgrounds, between September and November last year" - but evidently it has only been released now, the best part of a year later. Why? Is this good sc...

A Populus poll conducted for BBC News has shown a marked increase in the number of people who don’t believe in the global warming climate change CO2 pollution religion.

Much glee - even astonishment - in the blogosphere that the BBC has finally produced a balanced piece about climate change. There have been a few corners in the beeb where the coverage has been unbiased, but the thrust has been that climate change is manmade. In their main bulletins and programmes this is what you get.

The Senate Foreign Relations Committee held a hearing on Tuesday regarding Climate change, and among the topics that popped up was the threat Climate change presented to national security. There is quite a bit of thought going into the potential, but let me ask a question...
