When I first began examining the global-warming scare, I found nothing more puzzling than the way officially approved scientists kept on being shown to have finagled their data, as in that ludicrous "hockey stick" graph, pretending to prove that the world had suddenly become much hotter than at any time in 1,000 years. Any theory needing to rely so consistently on fudging the evidence, I concluded, must be looked on not as science at all, but as simply a rather alarming case study in the aberrations of group psychology.
Christopher BookerThe underlying purpose of all art is to create patterns of imagery which somehow convey a sense of life set in a framework of order ... all great art ... harmonises consciousness with the ego-transcending Self.

Christopher BookerThe proselytisers for man-made global warming have long exercised a tight stranglehold over the contents of Wikipedia.
Christopher BookerWhen future generations look back on the global-warming scare of the past 30 years, nothing will shock them more than the extent to which the official temperature records โ on which the entire panic ultimately rested โ were systematically โadjustedโ to show the Earth as having warmed much more than the actual data justified.
Christopher BookerAnyone who thinks that wind factories are environmentally friendly should Google "Cefn Croes Photo Gallery", to see 100 chilling pictures showing how many miles of unspoiled Welsh countryside were disfigured to create the largest industrial site in Britain: all to "save" annually less than a quarter of the COโ emissions from a single jumbo jet.
