Redpencil,
Ridd`s case not lost because of scientific inaccuracy of Ridd`s statements.
Lost on the technicality that Ridd`s contract forbade any criticism of the "woke " global warming theories on reef destruction as espoused by JCU professors.
Another typical blow to scientific advancement by alarmist warmists not prepared to put their arguments out there (debate) but instead use legal means to shut down criticism of their undefended alarmist statements.
