The motion, proposed by two of Reform’s Kent councillors Chris Hespe and Paul Chamberlain, argues that anthropogenic climate change is “unproven” and claims that the science on climate change is not settled. The motion also calls on the council to be “openminded but sceptical of anthropogenic climate change” and claims that “bodies pushing the narrative of anthropogenic climate change” such as NASA, have used “inaccurate data”. Numerous studies have found that there is a consensus between 97-99+% of climate scientists that climate change is anthropogenic, i.e. Ward has recently written to Nigel Farage and Richard Tice urging Reform UK to take the science on climate change seriously. Heartland, a notorious climate change denial thinktank which once infamously compared believers in climate change to the Unabomber in a billboard campaign, confirmed recently that they are advising Reform UK.
