From the report
Headline check
One of the two things this headline claims did not turn up in the report.
- The figure “38” is in the headline. We could not find it in the report.
Figures, names and quoted words in the headline, looked for in the report itself — not in the summary above. Figures are matched digit for digit, so a report that writes “forty per cent” out in words where the headline wrote “40%” is queried here when it should not be. How this is checked
A summary of BBC News (Science and Environment)’s report. The score is for the full 373-word report.
