»Eine neue Studie der Technischen Universität Athen stellt die Klimawissenschaft auf den Kopf. Sie zeigt: In den letzten 40 Jahren hat sich die isotopische Signatur des atmosphärischen CO2 nicht verändert – menschliche Emissionen sind schlicht nicht erkennbar. Damit wird die Grundannahme der UNO und des IPCC, wonach fossile Brennstoffe die Hauptursache des Klimawandels seien, fundamental infrage gestellt.
Seit Jahrzehnten predigen die Hohepriester des Weltklimarats (IPCC), dass die Menschheit durch ihre fossilen Emissionen das Klima der Erde ins Wanken bringe. Das Mantra lautet: Mehr CO2 in der Luft, mehr Hitze auf dem Planeten, mehr Katastrophen vor unserer Haustür. Doch eine neue Studie aus Griechenland zerschmettert dieses Glaubensgebäude – und das mit nüchternen, überprüfbaren Daten. Demnach hat sich die isotopische Signatur des atmosphärischen CO₂ in den letzten 40 Jahren nicht im Geringsten verändert. Mit anderen Worten: Es gibt keine Spur fossiler Brennstoffe in unserer Luft. Der Mensch ist im atmosphärischen Kohlenstoffkreislauf schlicht nicht erkennbar.« 👇🏻

A magnificent letter from a magnificent woman.
“ Dear Mr Wright,
It must be terribly difficult having to share your name with the legendary and enormously popular disk jockey. My late husband, Sir Michael Caine, was not the actor, Nonetheless, Hollywood starlets might call saying they were in town.
Awkward all around.
I am a law maker. You would not expect me to pontificate on structural instability, hazardous materials or airborne toxins. I know nothing about accelerants, burn patterns or smoke staining. If I told the people, you represent how to deal with a fire I ought, rightly, be ignored.
What the blazes, then, do you think you are doing when trying to meddle with the adoption of the EHRC's latest Service Code? If no one else has told you already I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you appear to have no idea what you are talking about. Did you think to run your nonsense past a lawyer? (If you did,hesitate to pay.)
The provision of changing and lavatorial facilities by an employer is governed by the Workplace (Health and Safety) Regulations 1992. Employers are required to provide separate facilities for males and females. There is no option to provide only mixed facilities. Mixed facilities are optional but sex-separated facilities are compulsory. That has been the case for 34 years. It has not changed because of a Supreme Court Judgment. You might not have understood it before, but you do not need EHRC Guidance to understand it now. Fire fighters must be provided with biologically separated sanitary and changing facilities. That will remain the case even if the EHRC Guidance is frustrated.
No "hard-won" rights have been rolled back. The rights you imagine (or, more likely, have been briefed about) have never existed. Rights do not accrue and acquire validity thanks to magical thinking or bad advice.
That which you frame as a call for employers and service providers to "go beyond minimum requirements" is, in fact, a demand that they break the law. I assume you had no idea that was the case. I can imagine you being keen to change laws with which you disagree, democratically, but I should be surprised were you to knowingly call for outright anarchy.
The laws governing access to legitimately sex-separated facilities have not changed for employers since 1992, and for service providers since 2010. If you were ignorant of them before you have no excuse now. If you do not like them you may seek, democratically, to change them.
Until then, I strongly encourage you to urge members to obey the law and stop posturing as though the law is something you might like it to be but is not.
Yours sincerely
Baroness Nicholson of Winterbourne

Natural England wants to remove 90% of Dartmoor’s ponies.
Our Exmoor ponies are next. These animals have been here for thousands of years.
A government quango, destroying the countryside and its heritage.
BBC Question time refused to mention @restorebritain in their Makerfield byelection special.
This is not an honest mistake.
The system that is erasing us in our homeland is also erasing our only hope from the airwaves.
In Parliament today: I expose an official national police policy, published in March 2025, requiring police forces to treat different ethnic groups differently.
This is immoral, divisive and dangerous
We cannot have two-tier policing
The Home Secretary should ensure this policy is ended right now

You are wrong. It was a petition raised by myself on behalf of our independent rape gang inquiry, and signed by 260,974 British men and women.
Their support meant we forced the topic onto the parliamentary agenda.
It is 'opened' by Jamie Stone because he is Chair of the Committee, as you well know. It has nothing to do with the Liberal Democrats, it is his duty to chair it.
What you are saying is inaccurate.
Last time we had an event in Parliament for rape gang survivors to engage with MPs, you didn't bother to show up.
You were invited. I asked for your support. You ignored me.
Labour MPs took the time to attend, Reform did not.
You posted a picture of yourself drinking alcohol instead.
MPs from various parties have supported our efforts - putting aside petty political differences to tackle this festering rape gang scandal.
It is a disgrace that you refuse to do the same.
Ed Davey has written to Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson demanding she WITHDRAW official EHRC guidance protecting female-only spaces in toilets and changing rooms.
Let that land.
The Equalities and Human Rights Commission — a statutory body — has produced legally grounded guidance telling employers and public bodies that biological men should not access women’s single-sex spaces.
This is not opinion.
This is not politics.
This is the settled legal position following the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on the meaning of “woman” under the Equality Act.
And Ed Davey wants it gone.
His stated reason?
The guidance is not “compatible with long-standing British values.”
British values.
He used those words to argue AGAINST protecting women’s single-sex spaces.
The same Liberal Democrats who lecture the country about tolerance, inclusion and human rights are now lobbying a Labour minister to tear up statutory guidance that protects every woman in Britain who walks into a changing room, a refuge or a hospital ward.
This is not a fringe position within the Lib Dems.
Their leader wrote the letter.
The party has chosen its side.
It is not the side of women.
Repost if you think women’s single-sex spaces should be protected.
British sheep produce around 22,000 tonnes of wool a year. A renewable fibre, sheared from a living animal that regrows it for the next season, used for carpets, insulation, textiles, jumpers, and traditional products that outlast the sofa.
The environmental alternative is polyester. Spun from crude oil. Manufactured in a refinery. Non-biodegradable. Sheds microplastics with every spin of the washing machine. Ends up in every river, every ocean, every fish, every lung.
A single polyester fleece can shed up to 250,000 microfibres in one wash.
But the sheep grazing a Welsh hillside on rainwater is the problem, and we should all be wearing more crude oil instead.
The mental gymnastics required to call wool environmentally harmful while promoting polyester is Olympic-level.
Wool: renewable, biodegradable, grown on grass, naturally flame-resistant, insulates wet or dry, lasts decades, returns to soil at the end of its life.
Polyester: fossil fuel, never biodegrades, sheds microplastics for centuries, needs chemical flame retardants, manufactured in conditions that poison the air for the workers handling them.
Yet environmental groups campaign against wool while wearing fleece jackets pumped out of oil rigs in Texas.
The sheep is not the problem. The activist in the polyester gilet is.
I’m making a TV show!
Here’s why: When I was moving to New York, I told my leasing agent that I wanted a place with charm and character. She told me that if that’s what I want, I need to look for apartments built before World War II.
“So you’re saying we’ve basically built nothing with charm and character in the past 80 years?”
“That’s right.”
This is happening all over the world. The same boring and generic style has spread to the entire world. 150 years ago, new buildings in Shanghai looked nothing like the ones in Rome or Tokyo or San Francisco or Buenos Aires. The architecture of each place was as varied as the landscape itself.
And it’s not just the sameness of the modern world that has me scratching my head, but also the carelessness behind so much of what’s built these days. We boast about the triumphs of technology and how advanced we are as a civilization, but why has our built environment regressed so much? Shouldn’t we use our wealth to make our streets more charming and delightful?
There’s lots of talk about how we’ve polluted the natural world, but what about how we’ve polluted the man-made world? We’ve filled our streets with ugly railings, benches, lampposts, and clutter.
We assume these things have to be boring, but they don’t. Good design can make everything, even bins and bus stops, charming. New things can be prettier than old things. The first step is believing it’s possible.
Something has changed. We’ve taken a dramatic turn, and the majority of people prefer what we used to build to what we build today. Just look at where people take photos. In New York it’s the steps of brownstones in the West Village; in San Francisco it’s the old Victorian homes; in London there’s tourists galore in front of those iconic red phone booths which remain on the streets, even though they don’t work anymore, because they’re so nicely designed that people like having them there.
All this is what inspired me to make a TV show.
First: a pilot episode which now has 5.4 million views, 23,000 comments, and 379,000 likes. It also has 241,000 YouTube subscribers from that one video, which is just about unheard of for a new channel.
And now: a full-on, six-episode series.
But when I pitched Hollywood on the idea, they said cultural series of this sort don’t work: “The only kinds of documentaries that get funded are about sports, music, nature, or true crime.” Huh? How can that be?
People are interested in culture. The problem is most culture documentaries are terrible. They fail in one of two ways: (1) people dumb down the ideas in patronizing ways, or (2) people use so much jargon and high-falutin language that it becomes boring and inaccessible.
This is why I’m producing this work. It’ll be called The Modern World, and it’ll be a tour of art & architecture through the eyes of Sheehan Quirke, who goes by @culturaltutor.
It’s our ambition to do for the man-made world what Planet Earth did for the natural world. To use cinematic imagery and simple language in a way that everybody can understand. And to be rigorous, but not in a way that feels like school or your know-it-all friend who never stops talking.
The potential here is huge. Architecture impacts literally every person on earth. What we build shapes the moods of people and the spirit of our culture.
We’ll film in six countries (the United Kingdom, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, and the United States) to produce six 30-minute episodes which we hope to publish on a major streaming service. We’re currently in the fundraising stage, and production begins once we’ve raised the money.
It’s our mission to help people see the world more clearly, and in turn, make the world a more charming and delightful place to live in.
In the past 100 years, climate-related deaths are down 97%.
Polar bears have more than doubled since the 1970s.
The Great Barrier Reef is healthier than ever.
Greenland ice is growing / Antarctica has gained ice.
Now all of that is absolutely astonishing…
