Aug 10, 2026 ~ 'Stop Blaming the Climate for Wildfires We Can Prevent'   "French authorities have detained well over 160 people since early July for suspected arson or reckless fire-starting. Officials say nine in 10 fires have human origins, whether deliberate or careless, from discarded cigarettes to illegal machinery and fireworks."   "In Spain, parallel blazes near Madrid have produced arrests linked to farm equipment and other human activity. Matches and carelessness light most fires. Weather merely fans them. The forests themselves amplify the danger. Much of the Gironde and the neighboring Landes de Gascogne is managed maritime pine plantation, Europe's largest artificial forest of even-aged, resin-rich Pinus pinaster, established for timber and still maintained for lumber. These monocultures create continuous fuel beds of needles and undergrowth with few natural firebreaks. Broadleaf species that hold more moisture and would slow a fire are often cut back or suppressed."   "The same pattern appears elsewhere. In North America, herbicides including glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, are routinely sprayed after harvest or fire to kill competing hardwoods so commercial pines, spruces, and Douglas firs can dominate. Limited, targeted use of the same chemicals has occurred in the Landes for site preparation and young-stand weed control. The result is a landscape optimized for softwood volume, not resilience. Fuel buildup compounds the problem. Decades of fire suppression without enough prescribed burns, thinning, or mechanical removal leave dense underbrush ready to explode once ignited."   "States that actively manage their forests tell a different story. Texas, Florida, North Carolina, Wisconsin, and Idaho hold vast forests yet rarely see California-scale megafires. Prescribed fire, selective harvesting, and vegetation control keep fuel loads low and fires small."   "The fires in Gironde are tragic and destructive. They are also largely the product of human choices: what we plant, what we suppress, what we let accumulate, and who lights the first spark." [Climate Change, Fake News]
Aug 10, 2026 ~ 'Blame Canada’s Terrible Regulations For Wildfires Ruining America’s Summer'   Another article that explains what the real reason these wildfires have been so bad lately. "The result is a continental paradox: Policies meant to “manage” forests have instead created more combustible landscapes, contributing to the anomalous rise in total annual area burned. Deterioration of Canada’s forestry is also being accelerated by domestic policy. Rising carbon taxes on diesel and gasoline – critical fuels for logging, hauling, and mill operations – have increased costs across the supply chain. New layers of regulation slow approvals and reduce harvest flexibility. And when pulp mills close, sawmills lose buyers for residual chips and sawdust, undermining their economics even further. But the most consequential impact of this industrial contraction is ecological. Canada’s parklands – where monitoring exists – show a clear trend of rapidly aging boreal forests, with large stands now reaching 70 to 120 years old. In Alberta’s eastern foothills, provincial parks contain dense, overmature, fuel‑loaded forests primed for high‑intensity wildfire. Decades of fire suppression, beetle kill, drought, and heavy recreational pressure have created extreme fire risk. As Parks Canada itself warns, 'the reduction or exclusion of fire as a natural process … leads to increased risk of wildfires.'" [Climate Change, Fake News]
Aug 12, 2026 ~ "No, it's not 'climate change' burning Europe: It's the fuel"   "Global warming enthusiasts are having a field day as wildfires ravage western Europe, with Spain, Italy, France and Scotland hardest hit. It's climate change, the europress crowed. A sampling of some European headlines:" #FakeNews headlines omitted.   The story is the same across Europe and Canada. "It's not climate change. It's an inability to adapt to conditions and a failure to prioritize fire eventualities until the fuel load gets so big it's hard to stop any fire. One can only hope that Europe can get these fires out before the damage destroys the historic vineyards and cities of its beautiful civilization. They need to get serious about dumping the climate change myths." [Climate Change, Fake News]
Aug 15, 2026 ~ 'The Biggest Garbage Heaps in Human History'   Another good article with the horrifying reality of how environmentally unfriendly so-called "green energy" is. The amount of waste created by solar and wind is only dwarfed by the environmental damage perpetrated in its creation. The details have to be read to be believed. [Climate Change, Energy]
Aug 15, 2026 ~ @BjornLomborg reports that the climate alarmists were totally wrong yet again. Of course the #FakeNews was all in as always... "New data for Great Barrier Reef: Last five years best on record Yet, media wrote its obituary in 2014 Research told us it would be almost gone in 2022 Not all scare stories are true." [Climate Change, Fake News]
Aug 23, 2026 ~ 'The Climate Change scam may be on its deathbed'   "The climate grift might be over for good, like USAID."   "As the date of doom for every prediction arrived, and nothing happened, I began to suspect the 'experts' weren’t so expert after all. Then to the embarrassment of experts, the global stopped warming, so much so they couldn’t tease heat out of the contrived data. Thus was “Climate Change” born, with an entirely new round of 10- or 12-year predictions of certain doom. It was the perfect scam. Climate change was everything and nothing. Hot weather? Climate change. Cold weather? Climate change. Hurricanes?  Climate change. No hurricanes? Climate change. Snow? Climate change. Tuesday? Climate change. And by the time a 10-year doom date arrived and nothing happened, everyone would have forgotten about it, and there was always a new prediction of doom about which to worry, and the darned climate just kept on changing."   "At long last, Americans have figured out they’ve been scammed. “Renewable Energy,” like solar and wind, has  proved to be largely useless and very expensive. They can’t ever hope to replace conventional energy sources, and when the sun don’t shine and the wind don’t blow, they’re expensive sculptures that have to be backed up with natural gas or other plants." [Climate Change, Fake News]
Aug 23, 2026 ~ 'Net Zero Is Dead and Gone'   "It was only a few years ago when the climate change alarms and green energy fad were all the rage at the White House and corporate board rooms. Former President Joe Biden's policies were all tilted to ending fossil fuels, and many of America's biggest corporations embraced the concept of net-zero fossil fuels. This was the movement during the Biden years to eliminate virtually ALL oil, natural gas and coal production, and replace these energy sources with windmills, solar panels and electric vehicles. This goal was pure virtue-signaling, and it never made any practical sense. Roughly 70% of American energy comes from fossil fuels, and only about 10% comes from 'green energy.' Studies showed that the initiative would have decimated the U.S. economy: millions of American jobs lost, hundreds of billions of dollars of lost GDP, and much higher energy costs for American businesses and families." [Climate Change, Energy]
Aug 24, 2026 ~ Bjorn Lomborg laughs at and debunks the #FakeNews article in the Canada National Observer titled: 'Canada is on fire, underwater and overheating. Here's what we can do about it' The most ridiculously climate-alarmist headline? "Canada is on fire, underwater and overheating" Reality: 1) Canada fire is below average 2) Canada has lost 0.002% of land over past 30 yrs 3) Warming saved many more Canadians from cold deaths than added deaths from heat [Climate Change, Fake News]
Aug 31, 2026 ~ 'Nepal floods: Satellite images reveal massive bedrock collapse beneath glacier'   A tragic glacier collapse in Nepal has killed thousands. The death toll is still uncertain but 1000 are confirmed dead and 4000 are missing. The cause of this tragedy was immediately attributed to 'climate change' which supposedly melted the glacier enough to cause it to break off and roll over the towns below. Its almost misleading to even call this a flood. It was a massive rock/ice slide that did push a lot of river water through the towns along with the rock and ice.   We now know that the real cause was a "massive bedrock collapse BENEATH the glacier." This means the glacier was simply a passenger and not the cause of the collapse. “There was a big bedrock failure that took part of the glacier with it,” Shugar, an associate professor at the University of Calgary, said. These kind of bedrock failures occur occasionally in these kinds of mountains but also, this mountain experienced a major earthquake in 2015 which may have further destabilized the bedrock. Glacier melt never made sense as the temperature has been below 0 for some time in that area.   Its nearly impossible to find this explanation in the #FakeNews because they have to push the false 'climate change' narrative. If any even mention it they say its a combination bedrock/glacier collapse. But its obvious that if the bedrock underneath collapses, the glacier is just a passenger along for the ride down.

Sep 4, 2026 ~ Wow, just when you think Talarico could not get any worse. Poison like this should be absolutely disqualifying. He says, "I'm ... thankful that young activists have really drawn the link between climate change and white supremacy and capitalism in our country. And I think only understanding the ways that all three of those oppressive systems work together are we going to be able to begin the process of dismantling them." Its terrifying that this guy is at all competitive in Texas! [Climate Change, Communism/Socialism, CRT DIE Wokeness, Fake Racism, Politics]
Sep 4, 2026 ~ 'Don't Climatize Nepal's Tragedy Before the Science Is In'   "The horrific glacier collapse and flash flood in Nepal shocked the world. Millions of tons of rock, ice, mud, and water thundered down a Himalayan valley, wiping out roads, bridges, hydropower facilities, and entire communities. Hundreds are dead or missing. The destruction is almost beyond comprehension."   "Before rescue operations were fully underway, however, major news organizations rushed to declare climate change the culprit. The New York Times was among the first to blame climate change; others included the Associated Press and NPR. While acknowledging that scientists were still investigating the exact cause of the catastrophe, the Times nevertheless framed the event as another consequence of global warming, aka climate change. That conclusion is premature and false."   "Initial scientific investigations indicate that the disaster began when an enormous section of bedrock beneath a glacier collapsed, destabilizing the overlying ice and triggering a massive rock-ice avalanche. The resulting torrent of debris, water, and pulverized rock surged through the valley below." In other words, the bedrock itself gave way which happens in these kinds of mountains and especially this one which had a major earthquake in 2015. The flood had nothing to do with the glacier and nothing to do with climate change. And YET, every single article in the #FakeNews blames climate change. There is literally zero honesty around this issue in the media. [Climate Change, Fake News]
Sep 7, 2026 ~ 'The Green Energy Paradox: Saving Nature by Destroying It'   "The “green transition” requires an enormous expansion of mines, mineral-processing plants, battery factories, transmission lines, solar farms, wind farms, and an extraordinary amount of industrial machinery. Much of that machinery still runs on fossil fuels and most likely will continue to do so. There is no energy system without materials. Furthermore, these developments have environmental consequences of their own."   "Solar technologies require materials including aluminum, silicon, silver, gallium, indium and tellurium. These materials must be mined, processed, refined, transported and manufactured into equipment. Mining requires enormous quantities of heavy machinery, much of it diesel-powered. Mineral processing and refining can also be extremely energy-intensive, while ores, metals and finished components travel through international supply chains heavily dependent on ships and trucks."   "The issue is honesty. Renewable-energy infrastructure does not exist outside the vast energy-intensive industrial system required to build it. Then there is the land. Utility-scale solar requires large areas because sunlight is diffuse. Add access roads, substations, and transmission infrastructure, and eventual disposal or recycling of equipment, and the physical footprint grows further."   "Electric cars provide perhaps the clearest example of green marketing. Look at the car, and there is no exhaust pipe. Wonderful: zero emissions. Now move the camera backward. There is the lithium mine. The nickel. The cobalt. The graphite. The steel and aluminum. The battery factory. The charging network. The expanded electrical grid. And somewhere, of course, the power station generating the electricity (and that is most likely to be a fossil fuel power station). The emissions and environmental costs have not magically vanished. Much of the activity has simply moved somewhere else. Replacing hundreds of millions of conventional automobiles with electric vehicles therefore requires an enormous industrial reconstruction involving mines, battery factories, charging stations and expanded electrical grids. Again this entire cycle is heavily dependent on fossil fuel use." [Climate Change, Economics, Energy]
Sep 12, 2026 ~ "How to Waste $9 Trillion to NOT 'Save the Planet'"   So far the world has flushed $9 Trillion down the toilet. It has not even had a measurable effect. But fear not. "According to the UN, Climate Policy Initiative 'estimates that an average of USD 7.8 trillion a year will be needed through 2030 ... to stay on track.'" Almost $8 Trillion a year to also have no effect.   Imagine what we could have used $9 Trillion and the future trillions for! The world better wake up before we're all totally bankrupt. [Climate Change, Debt, Deficit, Economics, Economy]
Sep 19, 2026 ~ "Climate change protest in the Netherlands. People are carrying banners saying: “Let’s go Hamas!”" @AGHamilton29: "It might seem surprising to you that a climate change protest would be focused on promoting terrorists until you realize such protests never really had anything to do with climate change. Climate change, anti-Israel, BLM, wealth gap etc. It’s all the same thing to this group. It’s all about destruction of western society and re-allocation of power to the radical left. The underlying issue is just the excuse they are citing to justify the proposed power shift." [Climate Change, Islam, Loathsome Left, Terrorism, Violent Left, Western Civilization]
Sep 19, 2026 ~ 'The surprising reason there have been no Atlantic hurricanes this year'   The #FakeNews could not beclown themselves more. After spending decades telling us that 'climate change' would cause more hurricanes, the #FakeNews @washingtonpost is telling us that the reason this is the first time since 1914 that there were no Atlantic hurricanes during hurricane season is because of... 'climate change.' When there were more hurricanes, it was due to climate change and now that there are less, it is due to climate change. Even pseudoscience is more falsifiable than this. Literally anything and everything that happens is 'proof' of their theory. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Sep 26, 2026 ~ Michael Shellenberger @shellenberger posts: "Droughts are worsening, scientists and the media say. But real-world data do not show droughts worsening globally. Scientists invented an assumption-dependent index that produces the misleading findings. And now they're even applying it to the past." Add droughts to the list that includes floods, wildfires, tornados, hurricanes and heat waves that the #FakeNews claims has been getting worst but really are not. [Climate Change, Fake News]
Sep 27, 2026 ~ 'Trump Terminates Biden's EV Mandate, Promises Cheaper Cars for American Families'   A huge victory for consumers and the economy! Trump announces: “BIG DAY FOR AMERICAN AUTO WORKERS AND CAR BUYERS! I have just approved new Fuel Economy Standards that TERMINATE Sleepy Joe Biden and Pete Boot-EDGE-EDGE's ridiculous EV Mandate. The Dumocrats cost our Great Auto Manufacturers $Billions, forced Americans into cars they never wanted, and wasted Billions on Chargers that were never built. These new Standards will take the waste out of ⁠building cars in America. That means LOWER PRICES, saving families thousands on a new, beautiful, and safe car. Far better than the Environmental Monsters that we were building heretofore. Every Manufacturer, from General Motors to Ford to Stellantis, has called me wanting to build here, and now they can!” [Climate Change, Economy, Regulations, Trump Win]
