"Heres a detailed debunk of Steve Milloys misleading claims about the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) and climate change: Claim 1: This would be a tacit admission that the Sun is the primary warmer of ocean water. โ
Debunked: Yes the Sun warms the ocean no scientist disputes that. But climate change is driven by how much of that heat Earth retains. Greenhouse gases trap outgoing infrared radiation preventing the planet from cooling. As a result oceans are absorbing over XX% of the excess heat caused by human emissions (IPCC 2021). The salt spraying (marine cloud brightening) is not admitting solar" @mwt2008 on X 2025-07-25 17:59:32 UTC 7688 followers, XX engagements
"Yeah I wonder what could be depleting fast. The percentage of the UKs gas demand that will be met by imports by 2035 is projected to be around 7585 % based on current modelling. Even if the UK fully exploits all remaining economically viable gas fields in the North Sea it wont make a major dent in import dependency by 2035. Under optimistic production scenarios the UK would be able to meet at most 2025% of its gas demand from domestic production by 2035. Even a best-case push to exploit remaining UK gas fields will not materially reduce the UKs reliance on imports by 2035.
