The catastrophic consequences of the release of gases into the atmosphere whose particles trap heat is now abundantly clear. This is as close to scientific proof that we get, and is on a par to evidence that smoking causes lung cancer and other diseases.
We might be sceptical, as all good science is because it needs to continually review what is happening, but to deny that global warming is caused by people is...

Two worlds collide in Filter's explosive new take on Shakespeare's lyrical Twelfth Night.
Olivia's melancholic, puritanical household clashes head on with Sir Toby's insatiable appetite for drunken debauchery. Orsino's relentless pursuit of Olivia and Malvolio's extraordinary transformation typify the madness of love in Illyria: land of make-believe and illusion.
