May 3, 2025 ~ 'How Trump’s Team Made Home Appliances Great Again In First 100 Days'
Trump is tackling and fixing a vast variety of problems seemingly all at once. Now he's rolled back damaging "regulations that restrict the functionality of home appliances in the name of efficiency." These regulations would have made the massively popular and superior tankless water heaters illegal. Trump is also rolling back the hated water restrictions on showers and other appliances. “We’ve opened up your faucets,” Trump said. “I don’t like taking a shower where the water goes drip, drip, drip onto my luxuriant hair. I need a lot of water. I need everything I can get. I don’t need to be under a shower trying to get water to come out of that damn thing.” [Climate Change, Energy, Trump Win]
May 3, 2025 ~ Journalist Alex Newman provides a flawless 90-second overview of the climate agenda: "The notion that CO₂ is pollution is absolutely preposterous... The idea that [it's] going to destroy the planet or change the temperature of the Earth is totally ludicrous." "But from a totalitarian perspective, if you can convince people that CO₂ is pollution, there's no human activity that doesn't result in CO₂ emissions—including living, including dying, turning on a light switch." "Every single aspect of your life, then, if we submit to the idea that CO₂ is pollution, then comes under the regulatory control of the people who claim to be saving us from pollution."

May 1, 2025 ~ 'Now Scientists Claim Near 20-Year Stable Arctic Sea Ice is “Unsurprising” and Predicted by Models' WOW, really opposite of decades of alarmism. "Dramatic confirmation that the sea ice in the Arctic has been stable for nearly two decades is contained in a recently published science paper from a team led by Dr Mark England from the University of Exeter. The finding is of course obvious to anyone who studies the data but it will inconvenience the activist cranks who continue to promote supposed reductions in Arctic sea ice as an important sign of their imaginary ‘tipping points’ and their fake climate crisis... The climate hysteric Al Gore never quite recovered his authority when he said all the ice could be gone by 2014." [Climate Change]
Apr 27, 2025 ~ 'Climate scientists want to shut off the sun'
"The UK government is poised to approve £50 million in funding for controlled solar geoengineering experiments within weeks, marking a significant step in exploring sunlight reflection methods (SRM) to mitigate global warming." This is total madness akin to the insanity that was being proposed in the 1970s when they thought the next ice age was coming. Scientists proposed darkening the polar ice to absorb more heat to counteract the cooling. Thank goodness leaders back then did not listen to them and ignored their suggestions. Nowadays our leaders seem to be embracing the foolishness that scientists are proposing to cool the planet. [Anti-Science, Climate Change]
Apr 26, 2025 ~ 'Electric Vehicles: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly'
"People (including children) are working in subhuman, grinding, degrading conditions. They use pickaxes, shovels, stretches of rebar to hack and scrounge at the earth in trenches and pits and tunnels to gather cobalt and feed it up the formal supply chain. ... Cobalt is toxic to touch and breathe -- and there are hundreds of thousands of poor Congolese (workers) touching and breathing it day in and day out. Young mothers with babies strapped to their backs, all breathing in this toxic cobalt dust. ... There's complete cross-contamination between industrial excavator-derived cobalt and cobalt dug by women and children with their bare hands (for $1 or $2 a day)." "EVs require more energy to produce, provide less freedom for drivers, empower America's chief rival in the world, and actually make things worse for the environment."

Apr 26, 2025 ~ 'Living Hell?' John Stossel releases the next round of climate change myths. Droughts and wildfires are worsening. Sea level rise will be cause catastrophic damage. Coral reefs are dying. All of these things are provably false but the #FakeNews pushes it. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News, John Stossel]
Apr 21, 2025 ~ "EPA Chief Lee Zeldin Leading ‘Largest Deregulatory Action‘ with Trillions of Dollars in Cuts" Zeldin "moved to cancel over $22 billion in contracts as part of President Donald Trump’s initiative to eliminate diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI) policies, environmental justice grants, and other superfluous government spending."

Apr 21, 2025 ~ 'Climate Myths' Stossel lists many common climate myths that have been told. The Arctic will soon be ice-free. Polar bears are going extinct. Climate change will create a massive global food shortage. All those are spectacularly false. Just the opposite. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, John Stossel]
Apr 16, 2025 ~ 'Bad news for man's best friend: Dogs are environmental villains' Left wingers live to kill joy. "While the environmental impact of cats is well known, the comparative effect of pet dogs has been poorly acknowledged." "The carbon footprint of pets is also significant." These people should be ruthlessly mocked and never ever taken seriously. [Climate Change, Loathsome Left]
Apr 14, 2025 ~ Flashback 2009, "Former climate czar, John Kerry said, “In five years, scientists predict that we will have the first ice-free Arctic summer.” H/T Chris Martz. How many failed predictions do there have to be before people start to notice they never get any right? [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Mar 30, 2025 ~ 'Scientists Misreport Climate Cause of LA Wildfires' Very important video by Sabine Hossenfelder. A new pseudoscience has spun out of the pseudoscience of climate alarmism. So called 'attribution science' attempts to attribute climate events like hurricanes and fires to climate change. Amazingly, every extreme weather event that happens today is attributed to climate change even though their frequencies and severity have not increased over long time periods.
The ruse is accomplished by claiming not that the event was definitely caused by climate change but rather that it has been made 'more likely' by some significant amount. A study from "The World Weather Attribution Center" reported that the recent LA Wildfires were made 35% more likely by climate change. ALL of the #FakeNews organizations reported this result and governments try to react to what they think will help reduce these extreme events, like trying to implement 'net zero.'
However, these 'attribution studies' are garbage as Hossenfelder @skdh found out when she dug into it. Even using the study's own data, she finds "Those results are compatible with no effect at all. They didn’t find any reliable relation between the wildfire and climate change." But even though their study had a null result, the study authors said they have “high confidence” that fossil fuel is to blame for this particular fire. Which of course is the only kind of result that would get them any attention at all.
"This particular study is below even my already low expectations. Look, you all know I am not a climate scientist, I’m just some YouTuber who reads too many papers. I stand here thinking I should really keep my mouth shut. And I guess a lot of climate scientists think the same. But what the fuck? In any decent scientific discipline this 'result' would have been reported as 'not statistically significant' end of story."
Hossenfelder released a second video on this study where she double checked this result and ran her conclusion by a climate scientist who confirmed it. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Mar 23, 2025 ~ 'The downfall of climate change poster boy Michael Mann' Mann is a clown and fraud of epic proportions.
"The hockey stick, let us never forget, was promoted as the last nail in the coffin of climate skepticism. ‘It is hard to overestimate how influential this study has been,’ declared a BBC journalist, and on this rare occasion that BBC journalist was right. The hockey stick was cited frequently in the IPCC’s Third Assessment Report; it was used in support of the Kyoto treaty; it appeared in textbooks; it was quoted by politicians as proof that urgent action needed to be taken."
The hockey stick was junk science though. "The proxies he had used to recreate early temperatures (e.g. tree ring data) were unreliable; that his statistical methodology was flawed; that his algorithms were so corrupt that whatever data you input, you’d always get the same unscientific, politically driven hockey stick shape."
Most recently, he was found to have been lying in court. Multiple times. And so he owes a tremendous amount of money to the people he was suing for criticizing him.
"Mann’s hockey stick is still wielded to club critics, but he is revealed as a liar and his dismal legacy – from the wind turbines despoiling your horizon to the net-zero rules killing your business – lives on." [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Mar 23, 2025 ~ 'Greenland’s Warming Paradox', "We're told repeatedly that Greenland's ice loss directly and rapidly translates into catastrophic global sea-level rise. But... Greenland has been dramatically warmer in the past, and yet sea levels were significantly lower than today." [Climate Change, Fake News]
Mar 20, 2025 ~ 'Why Greenpeace Might Have Just Imploded' A jury ruled in favor of the Energy Transfer pipeline company which sued Greenpeace over orchestrating protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline. Greenpeace was ordered to pay $667 million. This will wipe them out. [Climate Change, Violent Left]
Mar 16, 2025 ~ 'The Tables Turn on Michael Mann' Its a really bad day for Mann. "The Superior Court has ordered him to pay National Review more than $500,000 in attorneys’ fees under the D.C. anti-SLAPP law (including some for my own time early in the case). And just this week, the court took it a step further, finding that Mann and his lawyers had acted in bad faith and knowingly presented false evidence to the jury in an exhibit exaggerating the grant money that Mann had lost as a result of the alleged defamation. The court sanctioned Mann and his lawyers for the deliberate misrepresentation to the court and to the jury. At the same time, it reduced the amount of the punitive damages award (as it well should have under constitutional due process standards), from $1 million to a mere $5,000." All this was unnecessary and could have been avoided. Couldn't have happened to a nicer fraud. [Anti-Science, Climate Change]
Mar 14, 2025 ~ 'EPA Ends Hundreds Of Grants Totaling $1.7 Billion In Latest DOGE Cuts' #DOGE keeps saving taxpayer dollars. "Working hand-in-hand with DOGE to rein in wasteful federal spending, EPA has saved more than $2 billion in taxpayer money,” Zeldin said in a statement. “It is our commitment at EPA to be exceptional stewards of tax dollars.” “400 DEI and environmental justice grants” were among the savings.

Mar 7, 2025 ~ '$375 Billion EPA Slush Fund Gave Money To Charity Groups Created Months Earlier' My GOD! $375 BILLION Slushed down the toilet! "A massive climate change slush fund created by former President Joe Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act paid out billions of dollars to groups that had been created just months before receiving the money." They just assumed they could get away with this massive theft of taxpayer dollars. And they would have if Trump did not win. #DOGE [Biden, Climate Change, Crime, DOGE, Loathsome Left, Trump Win]
Mar 4, 2025 ~ Bill Nye the anti-science guy goes on #FakeNews CNN to claim that hurricanes are getting more frequent and "forest fires in the Carolinas didn't use to be a thing." These are ridiculous lies even by #FakeNews standards. Not even close to being the truth. Hurricanes are not getting more frequent and the largest wildfire in the SC's history was in 1976. 5,000 wildfires occur in SC in a typical year. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Feb 23, 2025 ~ 'How Al Gore Silenced Bill Gray' "Few names in the field of hurricane forecasting command as much respect as Dr. William 'Bill' Gray. A pioneer in tropical meteorology, Gray led the field in hurricane research for decades. His work at Colorado State University laid the foundation for modern hurricane forecasting, saving countless lives with accurate seasonal predictions. Yet, despite his contributions to science, Gray became a target of Al Gore’s climate crusade. His crime? Daring to question the mainstream climate narrative that Gore and the climate-industrial complex have worked so hard to manufacture."
"Gray himself noted in a 2006 Denver Post interview that the climate change hysteria was based on politics, not science. He warned that grant-driven research was steering the field away from honest inquiry and toward predetermined conclusions designed to support policy goals rather than scientific truth."
"According to Gray, he was bluntly told by colleagues that his skepticism had made him a liability. Without funding, his ability to continue his research and train new generations of hurricane forecasters was severely hampered. This wasn’t just about punishing Gray; it was a warning shot to the entire atmospheric science community: Dissent from the climate dogma, and your career will be over."
"I know this firsthand because I experienced a very similar reality. As my thoughts on climate have evolved, I found myself increasingly at odds with the rigid orthodoxy surrounding climate science. The moment I began questioning the prevailing narrative, I saw the same pattern unfold, colleagues distancing themselves, funding opportunities evaporating, and an unspoken message that challenging climate alarmism was a career-ending move. Bill Gray’s story was not an anomaly; it was a blueprint for enforcing conformity in climate science, and I, like many others, learned that lesson the hard way."
"The message was clear: If one of the most respected names in meteorology could be sidelined for questioning climate orthodoxy, what hope did younger scientists, like myself, have?" [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Silencing]
Feb 19, 2025 ~ 'Trump’s EO’s to Unleash American Energy and End the Climate Cult Fantasy Is a Big Win for Americans' "Trump’s Executive Order 14154 unleashes fossil fuel production and use in America while unwinding much of the damage caused by the Biden administration. Under Trump, the government will promote the production, distribution, and use of reliable domestic energy supplies, including oil, natural gas, and biofuels. And it will also eliminate the electric vehicle (EV) mandate in order to promote consumer choice across the country."
"On top of this, a recent memo directs federal agencies to eliminate anything approved under the Biden administration that references climate change; greenhouse gas emissions; racial equity; gender identity; “diversity, equity, and inclusion” goals; environmental justice; and the Justice 40 Initiative."

Feb 15, 2025 ~ 'Trump Works to End California's Man-Made Drought'
Trump has to go in and fix problems that should be fixed at the state level but thanks to Democrat policies, they have not been. Trump is putting an end to things like this: "Since 2008, 1.4 trillion gallons of water has been flushed into the San Francisco Bay to protect the Delta smelt... Further, environmental uses of water accounted "for more than 50 percent of the state's flows." "In January 2023, massive storms hit the state. They dumped trillions of gallons of water, but 94% of it drained into the ocean. Part of the problem was that California didn't have the infrastructure to capture more of it. But officials also turned down those pumps to protect the Delta smelt." Unreal. Democrats blame climate change when fires burn down homes but this is all their own fault.

Jan 24, 2025 ~ Flashback 1799: "Snows are less frequent and less deep. They often do not lie below the mountains more than one, two, or three days and very rarely a week. They are remembered to be formerly frequent, deep, and of long continuance. The elderly inform me that the earth used to be covered with snow about three months every year. The rivers, which then seldom failed to freeze over in the course of the winter, scarcely ever do now. These changes…in the spring of the year is very fatal to fruits…I remember that when I was a small boy, say 60 years ago, snows were frequent and deep in every winter." -- Thomas Jefferson [Climate Change]
Jan 19, 2025 ~ 'California Wildfires are NOT Climate Driven' All of the conditions that contributed to the fire are normal in California. Last time was 2011 but they've happened countless times in the past. "The current fires, like many before them, are largely driven by well-documented weather phenomena, historical land-use patterns, and human decisions." "A critical factor in the Los Angeles wildfires is the role of the infamous Santa Ana winds, which are neither new nor related to climate change. ... They’ve been a well-documented driver of wildfires for as long as records exist." "Decades of fire suppression policies have allowed dry brush, dead trees, and dense vegetation to accumulate, creating the perfect conditions for catastrophic fires. The Palisades Fire, for instance, was fueled by dense vegetation that had built up over years." [Climate Change, Environment, Fake News]
Jan 11, 2025 ~ 'Pay Up, Mr. Mann' A court orders Michael Mann to pay $531K in court costs for his frivolous lawsuit against National Review for a blog post.

Dec 28, 2024 ~ 'The fire suppression paradox' "Just because we’re suppressing wildfires doesn’t mean that the vegetation has stopped dropping leaves and branches. That material builds up over time, and once ignited, it may become extremely difficult to extinguish. This is known as the 'fire suppression paradox.' For every wildfire we extinguish today, we set the stage for a future fire that will be harder to put out."
"Reports indicate that the frequency of wildfires has been diminishing while their intensity has increased. Much of the literature on the subject mentions climate change, of course. But we’re also seeing the fire suppression paradox coming into play. Better communications and fire suppression techniques enable us to extinguish wildfires more quickly, which diminishes their frequency. But the ones that do get away from us tend to burn hotter and longer and cover more area. As we increase residential and commercial construction in remote areas, we can expect the cost of these wildfires to increase." [Climate Change, Environment]
Dec 1, 2024 ~ Fraud 'climatologist' Michael Mann never stops making a fool of himself.

No matter what the weather does, it is always your fault and the only solution is to expand the government’s power. [Climate Change, Fake News]
Nov 5, 2024 ~ A lot of focus on some recent floods in Spain. The #FakeNews blames 'climate change' even though similar floods in these areas have happened in the recent past.

Oct 18, 2024 ~ 'The real cause of weather-related deaths' "Despite fear-mongering about climate change supercharging natural disasters, weather-related deaths have declined dramatically." "According to the Emergency Event Database, the total global deaths per decade from climate-related disasters has fallen by more than 96% since the 1920s. Data show that between 1960 and 2020, there was an unprecedented decrease in climate-related deaths compared to the period between 1920 and 1959. This decline is even more impressive considering that the global population has more than quadrupled during this period, from about 2 billion in 1920 to nearly 8 billion by 2020." "In 1970, Cyclone Bhola killed an estimated 300,000–500,000 people. In contrast, Cyclone Amphan in 2020, though causing significant damage, resulted in fewer than 100 deaths in Bangladesh.

Oct 13, 2024 ~ 'DeSantis Shuts Down Reporter For Tying Tornadoes, Hurricanes To Global Warming' DeSantis has to explain history to the born yesterday #FakeNews who claim hurricanes are getting worse. “If you go back to 1851, there’s probably been 27 hurricanes that have had lower barometric, so the lower the barometric pressure, the stronger it is. I think there have been about 27 hurricanes that have had lower barometric pressure on landfall than Milton did, and of those, 17 occurred I think prior to 1960.”
“The most powerful hurricane on record since the 1850s in the state of Florida occurred in the 1930s, the Labor Day Hurricane, barometric pressure on that was 892 millibars. It totally wiped out the Keys. We’ve never seen anything like it, and that remains head and shoulders above any powerful hurricane that we’ve ever had in the state of Florida.”
He noted that the deadliest hurricane the state has ever faced was the Okeechobee hurricane in 1928, which killed more than 4,000 people. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
