Climate alarmists’ response when the facts don’t fit the narrative they’ve been pushing for two decades is to suppress the facts by killing the messengers. Today you kill bearers of inconvenient truths not with an ax to the back of the neck but by de-platforming them.The climate censors start by throttling or labeling posts with which they disagree, limiting others’ ability to share unredacted posts on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms. If that fails to dissuade the climate … [Read more...]
Good News, the World Is Getting Better

The media constantly highlight one catastrophe after another and make terrifying predictions. With a torrent of doom and gloom about climate change and the environment, it’s understandable why many people — especially the young — genuinely believe the world is about to end. The fact is that while problems remain, the world is, in fact, getting better. We just rarely hear … [Read more...]
Vietnam’s U-Turn on Coal Reflects Inevitable Energy Reality
Ever since signing the Paris climate agreement, Vietnam has shown interest in reducing its dependency on fossil fuels, introducing in recent years a slew of measures to cut consumption. However, in what is considered to be a major U-turn, Vietnam’s government announced last month that it will increase coal imports for the next 13 years. Critics of fossil fuels, including most mainstream media, are out of sync with the world’s energy realities. They are consistently … [Read more...]
BBC Bear Propaganda Melts Under Analysis

Should Climate Change Take the Blame for Hurricane Ian’s Carving a New Inlet in Florida?
The mainstream media continue efforts to convince a credulous public that Hurricane Ian was something unique that resulted from the combined overall effects of human-induced climate change.The implied assertion is patently untrue.Weather.com posts a clip showing devastation along one of Florida’s barrier islands near the point of Ian’s landfall.

Joe Biden’s Ad Hoc Use of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve
Notwithstanding vociferous criticism of the politicized use of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve by the Biden administration, such drawdowns have been employed for decades by Democratic and Republican administrations alike as an ad hoc and futile response to short-run increases in fuel prices. Unlike the case for all previous administrations, which viewed the domestic production of fossil fuels as a positive or at least … [Read more...]

Hawaii’s Axis Deer Mismanagement is Causing an Ecological Disaster
The History of Axis Deer in HawaiiAs the 8-seat Mokulele Airlines plane approached the Molokai airport, I noticed the very overgrazed Molokai Ranch below. Surely, the ranch owners know better than to let their cattle overgraze like this. And besides, don’t they know cattle produce catastrophic levels of greenhouse gases? Why do they have so many cows? But wait, Molokai Ranch ceased most of its ranching operations back in 2008. The overgrazing was not from cattle, but deer. Thousands … [Read more...]
Here’s the Latest Climate Change Projection That Was Totally Wrong
This is a guest article by Matt Vespa.As if this is shocking news, the global warming Armageddon peddlers were wrong again.

Democrats had a full-blown meltdown over the haggling about the latest spending bill when it seemed as if it were on life support.
