"The House of Commons' Science and Technology Committee said that they'd seen no evidence to support charges that the University of East Anglia's Climatic Research Unit or its director, Phil Jones, had tampered with data or perverted the peer review to exaggerate the threat of global warming – two of the most serious criticisms levied against the climatologist and his colleagues."

second 'open day' at the earth centre - 2 months till take over

hello to all,

there is now only a couple of months before DMBC plan to take bids for the earth centre, its reported that some 30 organisations are interested, we know some of them to be the Police and RTTG. Its an amazing space and could be used to feed a community and educate many children. The plantlife and wildlife are without a voice but they are essential to preserving our culture and environment and are in abundance in and around the earth centre.

RTTG are having another 'open day' on March 31st get your invites quickly by emailing

mike@therttg.org (the welovetheearthcentre campaigners are not allowed on the guest list again!) please go along and make sure the communities and the earths voice is heard!

Audio: Is Clean Coal An Act Of Faith?

Chris | 04-03-2010 00:21 | Climate Chaos | Energy Crisis | Sheffield

Attached is a recording of a Sheffield Humanist Society meeting held on 3rd March 2010 in Sheffield, titled Is Clean Coal An Act Of Faith?

Chris Martenson: Peak Oil and Economic Growth

GATES OF DELUSION: Media Distortions And +Real+ Climate Scandals

Since November last year, the public has been bombarded with the story of stolen emails from the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, revealing a supposed "scandal" of scientific malpractice, stupidly and lazily named "climategate". Further media frenzy erupted over an erroneous Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change statement that 80 per cent of Himalayan glacier area would very likely be gone by 2035. Other climate-related storms in a teacup have been appearing in the corporate media almost on a daily basis. This nonsense is distracting attention from a mountain of evidence that human-induced climate change is accelerating and poses a deadly threat to civilisation.

Public Meeting: Is Clean Coal An Act Of Faith?

Talk by Terry Fox and Jenny Patient about the promised new technology to save the world from climate chaos. Organised by Sheffield Humanist Society, all welcome.

Only the extinction of capitalism will ensure the survival of our species

The concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere is already so high that the climate system has been brought out of balance. The CO2 concentration and global temperatures have increased more rapidly in the last 50 years than ever before on Earth, and will rise even faster in the coming decades. This adds to a multitude of other serious ecological imbalances, the impacts of which threaten the lives and livelihoods of the people of the world, most acutely, impoverished people and other vulnerable groups.

multimultimultinational bid to take over the earth centre ????

As you may be aware a campaign has been running to revive the Earth Centre in Doncaster as a community space and environment skill centre. In the last few days it has come to our attention that a very curious collection of multinationals partner a company (RTTG) Rapid Technology Transfer Group that has along with DMBC have been privately making plans for the future of the site. They dont seem to have a website yet.....
