The Truth About Britain?s Wildfires Thu Aug 21, 2025 15:00 | Paul Homewood
It is simplistic to blame the recent spike in wildfires on climate change, writes Paul Homewood. A more likely cause is the rewilding of uplands, supposedly to cut carbon emissions, and poor management of forested land.

The Guardian, of all papers, has acknowledged that predictions about the disappearance of Arctic sea ice may ? just may ? have been exaggerated. Paging Gore Vidal: Can we have that prize back please?

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3It's great to read good news about Louisburgh. The Silver Strand at Tallabawn I think must be the most beautiful in the whole of Ireland. Some years ago it was targeted by some German enterpreneurs who wanted to build 600 holiday homes there but thankfully it remains unspoiled to this day.
The sand on the beach is soft and lets you sink into it. There is a long, long walk through this soft yielding sand to get to the water.
Michael Viney of the Irish Times fell in love with the place and upped from Dublin and settled there with his family.
The last time I was there the road from Louisburgh was not in very good condition, at least the latter part of the fourteen miles or so. Now, it will probably get better. And in a very short time people will see the beach on film and will be enticed to go there.
I hope the film will be as beautiful as the beach.
Great to hear of Mayo getting positive exposure and hopefully economic benefits that are sustainable and will preserve this magical county.
Surely, the future of Mayo is in working with the landscape and not against it!
