“Minoritize” This: Paternalistic Woke Academic Climate Change Preening
The following is a guest article by Charles Rotter.Oh, fantastic.

Sterling BurnettA recent post at The Nation titled “Climate Change Is the Real National Security Threat” claims that climate change is the reason hurricanes Helene and Milton were so damaging and that it is the premier national security threat to the United States.

Conservation Successes Defy Climate Pessimism
When a purported climate crisis dominates much of the discourse of public policy, the trap of attributing every ecological issue to climate change easily ensnares anyone who fails to note the abundant evidence to the contrary. Over the past few decades, we have witnessed remarkable success stories of species being brought back from the brink of extinction—stories that defy the popular media narrative that a climate modestly warmer than the Little Ice Age is killing our planet’s life … [Read more...]

Tailpipes and Chimneys Greening Gardens and Forests
A farmer in South Korea’s Gyeongbok Province carefully tends to his potato field, while halfway across the world the engines of a thousand cars idle on an American interstate highway. These seemingly disconnected scenes share a bond through the fertilization effect of atmospheric carbon dioxide, which has been greening the Earth for decades.Yes, the CO2 effluent of tailpipes and industrial flues are good for plants and all of life, contrary to the alarming tales that make this … [Read more...]

Warming Climate Powers Canadian Agriculture
As we gaze at the verdant fields of Saskatchewan or the salmon-rich waters of British Columbia, it's easy to forget that merely 12,000 years ago much of Canada lay under miles of ice. The Canada we know today—a mosaic of thriving ecosystems and bountiful farmlands—is the product of a remarkable transformation that began as the last glacial ice advance waned and the warm embrace of the Holocene’s interglacial period took hold. Birth of Canadian Agriculture Beginning about … [Read more...]
