In a slow but steady retreat, the world’s most powerful financial institutions are abandoning their once-lauded climate pledges in the beginning of a long-overdue correction.From BlackRock’s quiet exit to the mass defection of U.S. banking giants, the climate bandwagon is losing passengers. And what replaces it could finally bring a necessary focus on real-world developmental finance for both Western economies and the Global South.In 2024, the U.S. banking sector staged a collective retreat from … [Read more...]
Western Arrogance—The Essence of COP26
I woke up this morning and learned that the United Nations has gone full existential, and African countries should be deeply offended. I wrote an piece that I’ll share with you called Western Arrogance, but even I didn’t appreciate just how arrogant the west truly is.This is disgusting and wrong. To use imagery of Africans in poverty to then suggest that signing up for climate goals will better their lives is nothing short of Malthusian. As Dr. Scott Tinker teaches, energy doesn’t end poverty, … [Read more...]
Consecutive cold years reveal climate lies of COP26
As world leaders meet this week at Glasgow for COP26, real-life data such as cold weather and increasing sea ice hints at the falseness of their faux climate crises.Residents of Delhi, for instance, are bracing for another cold winter after the country’s meteorological department forecasted below-normal temperatures for November. In fact, a string of exceptionally cold winters for the Indian capital have contradicted continual media predictions of unusual global warming—a dichotomy repeating … [Read more...]
Lethal Carbon-Imperialism in Glasgow and DC
Climate alarmists intend to keep poor nations energy-deprived, impoverished, jobless, dyingDays before the twenty-sixth Conference of Parties in Glasgow, Scotland. Pope Francis and President Biden met in Rome to discuss “efforts grounded in respect for fundamental human dignity,” including “tackling the climate crisis and caring for the poor.” They should have read Climate Change: The Facts 2017 before they met, especially my chapter critiquing His Holiness’s energy and climate “ethics.” A key … [Read more...]
COP26 at Odds With Leaders of Nearly 40 Percent of World’s People, Likely to Fail
India alone is a huge thorn in the sides of the Glasgow glitterati.COP26—the current global gala gathering of climate elite—appears headed for a grand failure as key countries making up nearly 40 percent of the world’s population either spurn the meeting outright or act on the realities of their own circumstances.India has demanded from developed countries $100 billion a year in aid to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide as well as compensation for “loss and damage” from climate change while … [Read more...]
Shocking News About Climate Change in America
I got this email today:I am a student at City of Glasgow College and as part of the Cop26 summit we have been tasked to find comments on how climate change has affected your life and your country. We are looking for around 50-100 words.My response will probably come as a shock:Hard data from IPCC and NOAA (not GCMs, which grossly exaggerate CO2’s warming and its consequences) show no increase in frequency or severity of extreme weather in America (or the world); increasing financial losses from … [Read more...]
Climate Change: Ebb and Flow of the Tide
Emotional, agenda-driven politics confronts sound, evidence-based scienceThe topic of global warming and climate change is far more scientifically complex than the public is led to believe.Myriads of newspaper, magazine and TV items over decades have tended to simplify the science to the point at which the general public believes that it is all so simple that any fool can see what is happening. Public groups often accuse world leaders and scientists of being fools, if they do not instantly act … [Read more...]
The Last COP-Out
For 26 futile years, the net-zero maniacs have wasted fuel, energy and taxpayer’s money to bite the hands that provide their food, energy, welfare and public sector jobs.Led by EU and AUKUS dreamers, they destroy reliable energy from coal, oil, nuclear, gas and hydro while forcing us to subsidise net-negative dreams like solar, wind, wave-power, CCUS, hot rocks, pumped hydro and hydrogen. All such speculative ventures should be funded by speculators, not taxpayers.COP-Out-26 illustrates to the … [Read more...]
A Simple Explanation of Why Climate Models “Run Hot”
The Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC AR6) has been released, much to the excitement of and fanfare from the mainstream media. It was expected that gloom and despair would permeate the document – unless, of course, we adopt a draconian carbon-dioxide-reduction strategy – and the IPCC did not fail to deliver.So, where do these extreme climate scenarios originate? One could assume that they could be “made up”; after all, climate change … [Read more...]
Countdown to COP26 on the road to failure
It is less than 60 days until COP26 convenes in Glasgow. We can expect a flood of climate horror stories (including flooding). But there will also be some discussion of the actual issues, so here is a brief breakdown of the big four.Keep in mind that the alarmists have a bit of a civil war going on, between what I call the moderates and the radicals. The moderates have been at it for over 30 years and the radicals are fed up. The moderates now have a net zero target of 2050, while the radicals … [Read more...]
