Background

John Stuart Agnew was an MEP for the East of England for the UK Independence Party (UKIP) from 2009 to 2019.³“Stuart Agnew MEP – European Parliament Member,” Stewart Agnew MEP. Archived December 3, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/YEBjH

Born in 1949, Agnew is a Norfolk farmer and sat on the European Parliament’s agriculture and rural development committee. He was a member of the Europe of Nations and Freedom Group in the European Parliament, a right-wing populist grouping which includes parties such as France’s National Rally, led by Marine Le Pen.⁴“John Stuart AGNEW,” European Parliament.

Stance on Climate Change

Agnew has described global warming as “a scam” and criticised “warmist rants”.¹²Stuart Agnew. “My Personal Experiences of the Global Warming Scam,” Stewart Agnew MEP, March 16, 2018. Archived December 6, 2015. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/kaWDB

In a 2015 blog post called “My Personal Experience of the Global Warming Scam”, he wrote about the “doom-laden predictions” of professors taking part in a conference on man-made climate change at the University of East Anglia. He also used a series of cold winters to justify his belief that global warming is not happening.¹³Stuart Agnew. “My Personal Experiences of the Global Warming Scam,” Stewart Agnew MEP, March 16, 2018. Archived December 6, 2015. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/kaWDB

The same year, he told the European Parliament that cutting carbon dioxide emissions could cause crops to die and that the EU’s decarbonisation policies would lead to food shortages.¹⁴Ed King. “Cutting carbon emissions will cause crops to die, warns UKIP,” Climate Home News, March 12, 2015. Archived December 6, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/5xU0N

In a 2018 report, Agnew blamed climate change on cosmic ray fluctuations, sunspot activity and planetary gravitational pulls from elsewhere in the galaxy.¹⁵Arthur Neslen. “Ukip MEP sparks outrage with report denying human role in climate change,” Guardian, August 29, 2018. Archived December 6, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/dAt1Z

During the 24th UN climate summit (COP24), Agnew attacked natural history broadcaster David Attenborough for warning of the dangers posed by climate change, writing that Attenborough is “attracted to hyperbole as flies are drawn to the jam pot”, in a blog entitled “Treasured National Leftie Goes Bananas.”¹⁶Stuart Agnew. “Treasured National Leftie Goes Bananas,” Stuart Agnew MEP, December 10, 2018. Archived December 19, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/JiiBU

In the same post, he claimed the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was “largely made up of politicians with perhaps as few as twenty-five climatologists in its ranks,” while praising the climate science denying Heartland Institute. He went on to describe the retired professor Richard Lindzen, who sits on the “Academic Advisory Board” of the UK-based Global Warming Policy Foundation, as “the world’s most distinguished climatologist.”¹⁷Stuart Agnew. “Treasured National Leftie Goes Bananas,” Stuart Agnew MEP, December 10, 2018.

During the UN climate summit in Poland, COP24, Agnew responded to British television presenter David Attenborough’s speech at the conference by saying:¹⁹Stuart Agnew. “Treasured National Leftie Goes Bananas,” Stuart Agnew MEP, December 10, 2018.

“The very excitable St David Attenborough is attracted to hyperbole as flies are drawn to the jam pot. If he were a woman, instead of being only rather effeminate, we should call him Hysteria. Yesterday he emerged from – insert any one from: the monkey house, the south pole, the international quango HQ – to warn us, “Time is running out to save the planet.”²¹Stuart Agnew. “Treasured National Leftie Goes Bananas,” Stuart Agnew MEP, December 10, 2018.

“But it’s all tosh. Well, all tosh and rich rewards in the form of massive grants from those international quangos, especially the UN. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) likes to advertise itself as the representative body of scientific experts on the subject. It is nothing of the sort, being largely made up of politicians with perhaps as few as twenty-five climatologists in its ranks.”²²Stuart Agnew. “Treasured National Leftie Goes Bananas,” Stuart Agnew MEP, December 10, 2018.

In a report to the European Parliament, Agnew wrote:

“The other greenhouse gases, CO2, methane and nitrous oxide have a negligible effect on our climate. The only potential risk of a major CO2 event in Europe is an erupting volcano.²³Arthur Neslen. “Ukip MEP sparks outrage with report denying human role in climate change,” Guardian, August 29, 2018.

October 2017

Addressing the EU Parliament during a debate on the UN climate conference in Bonn, Agnew said:

“This ludicrous myth of man-made global warming is going to impact on agriculture. Farmers apparently are going to have to improve the world weather by emitting fewer greenhouse gases. There are two of them that we emit where we find ourselves in total contradiction to EU dogma.”²⁴“UN Climate Change Conference in Bonn, Germany (COP23) (debate),” European Parliament, October 3, 2017.

“Are you aware that if you succeed in decarbonising Europe, our crops will have no natural gas to grow from?

“We have to have carbon dioxide. This is madness. Absolute madness what you are suggesting. Our agriculture industry is going to suffer heavily if we attempt to bury carbon dioxide. It is absolutely mad.”²⁶Ed King. “Cutting carbon emissions will cause crops to die, warns UKIP,” Climate Home News, March 12, 2015. Archived December 6, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/5xU0N

A few days later, Agnew wrote in a blog post:

“I just wonder when the bubble is going to burst on this whole ludicrous [man-made global warming] saga.”²⁷Stuart Agnew. “My Personal Experiences of the Global Warming Scam,” Stewart Agnew MEP, March 16, 2018. Archived December 6, 2015. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/kaWDB

In the same post, Agnew expressed his disbelief in renewable energy:

“I assume that, whilst current contracts will be honoured by future governments for the 25 year period, it is more than likely that this ‘renewables scam’ will have run its course by then […]. I am determined to live to 90 years old, just to see what happens!”²⁸Stuart Agnew. “My Personal Experiences of the Global Warming Scam,” Stewart Agnew MEP, March 16, 2018. Archived December 6, 2015.

Key Deeds

August 2018

Agnew wrote a report to the European Parliament in which he blamed climate change on cosmic ray fluctuations, sunspots activity, ocean currents and planetary gravitational pulls from elsewhere in the galaxy, the Guardian reported.²⁹Arthur Neslen. “Ukip MEP sparks outrage with report denying human role in climate change,” Guardian, August 29, 2018. Archived December 6, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/dAt1Z

He also called for a €5.45bn fund called “Life” to be used to prepare for an impending period of low sunspot activity, while removing proposals from the European Commission for the fund to be spent on clean energy infrastructure, as well as references to climate mitigation and obligations under the Paris agreement.³⁰Arthur Neslen. “Ukip MEP sparks outrage with report denying human role in climate change,” Guardian, August 29, 2018. Archived December 6, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/dAt1Z

Dave Reay, professor of carbon management at Edinburgh University told the Guardian that Agnew’s report was “laughable” and misused climate science in a way that would “make the dinosaurs blush.”³¹Arthur Neslen. “Ukip MEP sparks outrage with report denying human role in climate change,” Guardian, August 29, 2018. Archived December 6, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/dAt1Z

October 2016

Agnew was one of about 30 people who attended a screening of the climate science denial film Climate Hustle. The event was organised by the eurosceptic Europe of Freedom and Direct Democracy Group (EFDD) and UKIP MEP Roger Helmer.³²Kyla Mandel. “Eurosceptics Screen ‘Climate Hustle’ Denial Film to Mostly Empty Room in Brussels Parliament,” DeSmog UK, October 22, 2016. Archived December 6, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/uNdWv

March 2015

Agnew told the European Parliament that plants need carbon dioxide to grow and that European policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions would cause crops to die and lead to food shortages.³³Ed King. “Cutting carbon emissions will cause crops to die, warns UKIP,” Climate Home News, March 12, 2015. Archived December 6, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/5xU0N

Responding to Agnew’s comments, Richard Betts, leading scientist on climate impacts at the Met Office, said: “CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere will remain near current levels for decades or longer even with very deep emissions cuts. I do not think that a reduction of the supply of CO2 to crops is at all on the cards.”³⁴Ed King. “Cutting carbon emissions will cause crops to die, warns UKIP,” Climate Home News, March 12, 2015. Archived December 6, 2018. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/5xU0N

A report by the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published in 2014 found that crop levels would likely fall if greenhouse gas emissions continued to rise, with increased floods, droughts and other extreme weather events.³⁵Ed King. “Climate change could devastate Africa crop yields,” Climate Home News, March 25, 2014.

December 2009

Agnew said he attended the climate science denial conference which took place on the fringe of the UN climate talks in Copenhagen in 2009.³⁶Stuart Agnew. “My Personal Experiences of the Global Warming Scam,” Stewart Agnew MEP, March 16, 2018. Archived December 6, 2015. Archive.fo URL: http://archive.fo/kaWDB

Writing about the conference in 2015, he said: “It was early December and I was amused to note how much the temperature was dropping over the three days. Some delegates were clearly under-dressed in the belief that cold winters were a thing of the past, and were looking distinctly uncomfortable. Our own little conference taught me a great deal more about what is driving our weather and I am now a poacher turned gamekeeper.”³⁷Stuart Agnew. “My Personal Experiences of the Global Warming Scam,” Stewart Agnew MEP, March 16, 2018.
