Sep 29, 2022 ~ New Zealand PM Jacinda Ardern calls free speech a "weapon of war." Must not allow the people to have it. “How do you tackle climate change if people do not believe it exists?” We must "ensure that these particular weapons of war do not become an established part of warfare." [Climate Change, Free Speech, Silencing]
Sep 28, 2022 ~ Flashback Headline, March 20, 2000, The Independent: 'Snowfalls are now a thing of the past' [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Sep 22, 2022 ~ Flashback, #FakeNews @guardian in 2004, "Climate change over the next 20 years could result in a global catastrophe costing millions of lives in wars and natural disasters." @AlexEpstein shows how climate deaths have instead gone down over time. [Climate Change, Fake News]
Sep 17, 2022 ~ Bjorn Lomborg, The climate effect of our electric-car efforts in the 2020s will be trivial. If every country achieved its stated ambitious electric-vehicle targets by 2030, we'd slow down #globalwarming by 0.0002°F by the end of the century. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Energy]
Sep 14, 2022 ~ Peter Thiel, "The climate debate ignores the reasons we burn fossil fuels in the first place. Alex Epstein reminds us that rich countries may be able to treat green lifestyles as luxury fashion, but for much of the world reliable energy is a matter of life and death." [Climate Change, Energy]
Sep 10, 2022 ~ Michael Shellenberger, "Scientists claimed the algae bloom in the San Francisco Bay, which killed over 10k fish, was due to climate change.

Sep 9, 2022 ~ Bjorn Lomborg, "We need to calm down on climate. We need to stop wasting trillions achieving almost nothing." [Climate Change, Economy]
Sep 7, 2022 ~ Michael Shellenberger, Long thread explaining why we physically cannot transition to solar/wind renewables regardless of what misguided laws and subsidies politicians pass. People say fossil fuels are "finite" but they are abundant. So called "Renewables" rely on RARE earth metals. Will run out faster. "Solar/wind projects need ~300x more land, 300% more copper, and 700% more rare earths than fossil fuels. Wind/solar/batteries require: 1,000% more steel, concrete and glass; 300% more copper; and 4,200%, 2,500%, 1,900%, and 700% more lithium, graphite, nickel, and rare earths, respectively, than fossil fuels, to produce the same amount of energy, according to IEA and others." [Climate Change, Energy]

Not exactly cause for celebration given the $369 billion price tag.; [Anti-Science, Climate Change]
Sep 6, 2022 ~ Fox Business, "Experts blame green energy policies for Europe's full-scale energy crisis: 'A warning to the US'" 'There's been under-investment in fossil fuels in Europe,' an analyst from research firm Rystad Energy tells FOX Business.

Sep 6, 2022 ~ CA and other Dem states are following Europe and Sri Lanka over the cliff by banning gas powered cars by 2030. This is madness and not remotely possible. The electrical grid is currently failing in CA with just 5% electric cars and almost all electricity generated by fossil fuels. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Economics, Energy]
Sep 5, 2022 ~ Mark Lewis, 'Come on, Hurricanes, Get With the Climate Change Program' Ever since the very active 2005 'new norm' season, hurricanes have not cooperated with the #FakeNews alarmists.

Sep 5, 2022 ~ "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.  This 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 in 1799 [Climate Change]
Aug 31, 2022 ~ Bjorn Lomborg, "Is flooding becoming an ever-worse problem? No. As share of GDP, flooding costs 10x less today than it did 100 years ago.

Aug 28, 2022 ~ John Hayward 'Russia Burning Off $10M in Gas a Day That Would Have Been Sent to Europe' "The Russians are burning 4.34 million cubic meters of gas... destroying enough fuel to supply 1.5 million European homes." The Europeans harmed themselves and the CO2 is being emitted anyway! [Climate Change, Economy, Energy]
Aug 24, 2022 ~ Bjorn Lomborg just destroys the #FakeNews alarmist narrative daily with facts. "A major environmental problem, droughts, is actually decreasing. Read my peer-reviewed article:" DECREASING! Yet they find every drought and declare it to be proof of man made climate change. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Aug 21, 2022 ~ Jazz Shaw, 'BLM [Bureau of Land Management] suspends most oil/gas leases in Colorado' Biden is doubling down on the policies that lost our energy independence and caused skyrocketing energy prices. Beholden to environmental nuts. [Climate Change, Economics, Energy]

Aug 18, 2022 ~ To illustrate how ridiculous the $7500 EV Tax Credit the government just passed is, as soon as they passed it, Fort raised the price of an electric truck by $8500. Just like colleges, not students are the beneficiaries of student loans, car companies not consumers benefit here. [Climate Change, Economics, Economy]
Aug 18, 2022 ~ Ryan Mills, 'Great Barrier Reef Defies Doomsday Predictions' Another really good history of all of the hysterical but wrong predictions and claims about the GBR.

Aug 18, 2022 ~ Sharon Udasin, 'Climate change causing poorer fitness in children: study' One of the fakest #FakeNews stories every attempted. The causes of rising obesity are obvious and well known and have nothing to do with climate change. [Climate Change, Fake News]
Aug 18, 2022 ~ President Biden signs the ridiculously named Inflation Reduction Act into law. Everyone including the non-partisan CBO admit it will do nothing to reduce inflation.

Aug 18, 2022 ~ Bjorn Lomborg, "Cutting CO₂ is one of the least effective ways to cut flooding, if at all. Flooding is mostly a problem because we tend to allow most floodplains to be built up, putting more people and property in harm's way (Bull's eye effect)" [Climate Change]
Aug 16, 2022 ~ .@BjornLomborg, "Despite what you may have heard, Atlantic hurricanes are not becoming more frequent.

[Climate Change, Fake News]

Aug 14, 2022 ~ Madison Dibble, "The Unintended Consequences of Declaring 'Climate Emergency'" Banning plastic bags and bottles have turned out to be a huge net negative for the environment. Solar panel waste will be tremendous. They never consider unintended consequences. [Anti-Science, Climate Change]

Aug 8, 2022 ~ "Today, the Great Barrier Reef is better than ever" says @BjornLomborg using reports from the Australian Institute of Marine Science. 2/3rds of the reef has more coral than ever.

Aug 4, 2022 ~ The left is combining their idiocies into even more incomprehensible nonsense. White people can't be non-binary because "they spread the gender binary around the world to justify the oppression of black and brown people."

Jul 22, 2022 ~ A bunch of clowns called The Tyre Extinguishers are going around the world deflating the tires of SUVs and other vehicles.

[Climate Change, Environment, Loathsome Left, Violent Left]
Jul 21, 2022 ~ Gov. DeSantis criticizes Biden, "How come it’s wrong to produce our own oil and gas here, but you can go to Saudi Arabia and fist bump to try to get it from a Saudi?"

[Anti-Science, Climate Change, Economics, Economy, Energy, Environment]
Jul 16, 2022 ~ Sri Lanka has fallen. Its President had to flee the country. Destroyed via Modern Monetary Theory. Bankrupted themselves with debt and 55% inflation.

Jul 16, 2022 ~ Sen. Manchin, one of 2 sane Democrat Senators, kills the climate change part of BBB bill.

Jul 16, 2022 ~ Texas power grid is again on the brink because it relied too much on "green" energy even though it has plenty of oil and gas.

Jul 10, 2022 ~ The Atlantic reports the total #FakeNews that "Heat waves hot enough to cook human flesh are already happening this month." And other absurd alarmism. @BjornLomborg says "Climate exaggeration just won't end." [Climate Change, Fake News]
