BBC Radio wanted to have me on today to debate a climate-denier in the context of the drought/heatwave. I said NO. I told them it was a disgrace that they still give climate-deniers airtime at a time like this. I won’t be part of such charades any longer. Please RT if you agree.

"There’s a narrative about the machine against the human, and it creates this dynamic that the machines are against us." Yet, the opposite is true. Human-machine collaboration create more positive outcomes than just one alone.  lnkd.in/gwA4ZK7
