Mr Kenny’s comments come after a group of scientists rallied and put a declaration together, joining a global push to call for a climate emergency. The Sky News host said 11,000 is a “significant number of signatures” but said it does need to be kept “in perspective”.
“This is 11,000 scientists from all sorts of areas from around the world, effectively signing a petition,” he said. “Now I don't know precisely how many scientists there are in the world, 10 million or 100 million, it will depend on how you define scientist. “But clearly millions upon millions of scientists have not declared a climate emergency.”
He would!
No journalist gets it wrong every time but you have achieved it!
Who to believe? 11,000 or 31,000? both sides are fudging it I imagine?
And one of those was mickey mouse from the blind uni in Nigeria. So how credible is the number of real scientists
CL shy Murdoch media are pollution on society that should be illuminated and outlawed
Chris Kenny is a dumb muthafuker..he makes people dumber when he speaks.
Don't forget Mickey Mouse!
I miss Chris
Who to choose between a partisan hack and 11000 actual scientists 🤔
Audit these scientists income streams origin , and we will see their greedy secret 👍
11 thousand is a lot of scientist.Of course you would have to take into consideration their field of science and one could presume that the 11 thousand deal in fields related to climate/weather/ environment. Not all scientist do.Poor attempt by Kenny/sky to discredit good people.
Chris Kenny is an endless exercise in unjustified self importance. Sad!
