They kept banging on about climate change the whole way through because average temperatures were slightly up for 7 months in a row, and this year they may down slightly for several months in a row, averages eh?
Seemed to be on some sort of agenda. Nature programmes are at their best when you just film nature and narrate what is going on and why, but like Planet Earth series, the BBC have this tendency to keep focusing just as much attention on what is going on behind the scenes, talking to the cameraman etc and showing them running to quickly get shots, nobody is interested in that, almost like trying to show people how hard they work. Still, great scenery but a pretty average show tbh. |

I've been to Yellowstone as well, and during summer in June. Very hot. Traffic not too bad considering. The worst part were the huge potholes in the roads, actually quite dangerous in places and made for a hazardous and bumpy ride here and there. Traffic stopped for us at a Bison herd where you get people jumping out of their cars to approach the animals. Like Americans do. We stayed at Billings, well away from the park, and Cody in Wyoming.

Looked it up on google maps :
Billings is a city in southern Montana on the Yellowstone River. In the north, trails wind along the rimrocks, which are sandstone cliffs. The Western Heritage Center displays local historical artifacts. The Moss Mansion showcases early-20th-century interiors. Pictograph Cave State Park's rock paintings are just outside of town. Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument is where Lieutenant Colonel Custer died. |

Cody is a city in and the county seat of Park County, Wyoming, United States.
It is named after William Frederick Cody, better known as Buffalo Bill, from his part in the creation of the original town. The population was 9,520 at the 2010 census. |

leopard, yes you can get out and walk, all the different geyers etc are dotted all over park, some are must sees, eg prismatic spring. there was thin snow layer when we were there, was v cold too( esp at night ) , that was late sept early oct.
we landed in denver and took few days drive, stopping in laramie, lander and we had 2 nights in jackson hole which is south end in grand teton area ( grand tetons when first see them are astonishing). recommend jackson hole for night out, has boardwalks etc , bands on in the bars , really nice place. love to go back. we drove through yellowstone and then stayed at top end ,place called 'gardner'( north entrance to park is there ) . explored park from there. after that moved on to see little big horn in montana, devils tower, ne wyoming and then into s dakota, see badlands nat ark, encountered a rattler , custer state nat park, and stayed in deadwood, again another fun town. we stayed in cheyenne on way back to denver, try and avoid, very dull and unscenic. |

Climate change is real. I don't think so.
If climate change is real, answer these simple questions.... Why are they building more airport runways? Why is there no effort to reduce the obscene amount of air traffic pumping out rubbish every day? Until I see things being done about the two questions above, I'll continue to ignore all this bollocks about climate change. Climate change only suit certain agendas, and not the ones where profit is king. |

Almost every expert agrees climate change is real, and extremely concerning - your two questions are moronic MC
