We know that, when it comes to climate change, much of the BBC’s news output is biased, exaggerated or downright fake.
But now they have dropped all pretense that they are nothing more than a PR site for all things green.
Take the above page, which laughably is headed “BBC News”, and sub-sectioned US & Canada.
Its headline item is a video from a self-confessed climate loon, who says he is fighting global warming by not having kids.
On any semi-respectable news site, he would either be ignored or laughed at. He certainly would not be treated as a serious news item.
But worse still, they have a series of five more climate videos at the top of the page. None of these are remotely news items. Instead, they are activist propaganda, of the sort you would expect to see on the Greenpeace website.
Which pretty much sums up all BBC coverage on climate change!
FOOTNOTE
The Looby Lou who filmed himself for the video comes from Prince Edward Island. His only complaint about the effect of climate change on the island is that “hurricanes are getting stronger”.
Interestingly, NOAA has a map of all hurricane strikes on the US, which shows that there have been no strikes at all north of Rhode Island since 1969.
They don’t extend the list to Canada, but it is strong evidence that global warming has not pushed hurricanes further north, or for that matter made them stronger in New England.
Notably, there have only been two major hurricanes that have made landfall north of North Carolina – Carol and Donna in 1954 and 1960 respectively.

Thanks to the Confederation Bridge to PEI, inbred simpletons like Jason are an endangered species.
Definitely a good thing that this moron has decided not to pass on his genes. In fact, since most of the deluded global warming alarmists are also convinced of assorted scarcity memes such as the “population bomb”, they could greatly help the planet by setting an example and removing themselves permanently from the equation.
Just as I stated with the New York Times article, the BBC web site shows that journalism is dead.
For the self-confessed climate loon not to have kids is a very good thing. That means there will be fewer idiots like him for our children and grandchildren to contend with.
Oops….you should check Canada’s National Hurricane Centre. No indication that hurricane frequency is increasing recently, but there have been plenty of hurricane landfalls on Nova Scotia and Nfld in particular….those provinces project much further east into the Atlantic than the US eastern seaboard and often stand in the way of Atlantic hurricanes that don’t landfall in the US.
