I think that the articles focus on just the Belgrano case is somewhat misleading. I would believe that outside UK, Ponting is best known for his book "A Green History of the World" mentioned in the biography. Nuuskamuikkunen (talk) 13:03, 27 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

In one episode of 'Yes Minister', I think Sir Humphrey Appleby declares something like 'there is a danger of ponting', and somebody, perhaps the scriptwriter (called something like Douglas Jay, I think) later wrote that the term had become civil service slang. This arguably belongs in an 'In Popular Culture' section here, provided somebody (not me, at least at present) wants to go looking for a Reliable Source to back it up.

The reason for an article about Clive Ponting is obviously his revelation. So why, after reading the article, I got no clue what he revealed? Just that it must have been something "concerning the sinking of the Argentine navy warship General Belgrano". Strange. --Querstrebe (talk) 23:49, 23 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
