The Great Barrier Reef – Still Colourful Corals and Curious Fish What is the true state of the Great Barrier Reef?

IPA Senior Fellow Dr Jennifer Marohasy presents this short film which allows Australians to see for themselves that claims that the Great Barrier Reef is in crisis are not true. A key claim in a January 2016 article in the scientific journal, Nature, is that there are no longer any living colonies of Acropora – […]
Did you know that polar bear numbers have increased by around 400% since the 1950s? What about that carbon dioxide makes up only 0.04% of the earth’s atmosphere, and only a fraction of that is caused by humans. Surely you’ve been told about the numerous failed climate predictions of the past and the reality that […]
