Bert Bingham, a senior Reform UK councillor, publicly stated that man-made global warming is a hoax during a council meeting. He accused the media of brainwashing the public and claimed that scientific data is manipulated. Bingham expressed skepticism toward climate initiatives, arguing against net zero targets while asserting support for environmental protection. The UN's climate body confirmed in 2023 that human activities are causing global warming, with recent records indicating rising temperatures. Bingham labeled the declaration of a climate emergency as nonsensical and dismissed concerns over energy costs as a manipulation.
"I've been involved in award-winning sustainability projects for 25 years, and I've never seen such nonsense as the anthropogenic global warming hoax. The statistics are manipulated."
"Scientists around the world agree human activities are causing temperatures to rise, and the year 2024 was the world's hottest on record, surpassing 1.5C of warming."
