The Media
Isn't the Media wonderful in how they distort facts.
BBC News at the beginning of the COP meeting showed a clip how the earth was warming up. In the clip it showed the Antarctic and claimed it was warming up, totally ignored the facts it has been one of the coldest winters on record at the South Pole.
The Guardian on nuclear power is reporting that the mini nuclear stations proposed by Rolls Royce are still under development. The nuclear reactors proposed are the ones that power the UK submarine, fleet and have been in use for countless years.

Re: The Media
Today in our media,
Australia comes 58th in the world out of 58 who have a climate policy.
Does that mean the remaining 150 countries do not have a policy.?
The media are there for one reason only, to shock the reader/viewer in any way that will make them stay until the adds come on.
Selling copy is all they care about coupled with their version of the truth and events as they see them, not always the same way as they may have occured
Happy daze John in Oz.
