WHITEWASH!

BBC correspondent Dan Collyns has got form. As I reported back in February, he was caught red-handed making nonsense predictions that the seas round the Galapagos Islands were heating up so fast that they were heading for boiling point. This eco-propagandist, who belongs to greenie alarmist group GRNlive, is at it again, this time reporting that a group of Peruvians have become so brainwashed and deluded as a result of propaganda pushed by lunatics like Mr Collins that they are actually painting bits of the Andes white in the hope that it will help reflect heat and stop glaciers melting. No matter that it’s nonsense to suggest that Andean galciers are melting because of ‘climate change’ (many scientists believe that melting is cyclical and exaggerated by other factors); lay aside, too, that it’s the most stupid idea since Cnut tried to stop the tide coming in (although, actually that story is a myth; the Andes one isn’t). To the the BBC and Mr Collins, it’s all good scare-mongering stuff, so it must be news.
