Nothing to see here -- just an internal report by Shell from 1989 precisely predicting the "violent weather" and "deluges" that just destroyed half of Appalachia, and summing up expected climate chaos with the comment, "Civilisation could prove a fragile thing."

Ten’s The Project apologises for airing wrong protest footage, mischaracterising Sunday’s largely peaceful pro-Palestinian protest as a violent demonstration. #MediaBites #MediaWatch
