Pentagon Requests Blowout Budget To Fight ‘Climate Crisis’ And ‘Extremism’ Among Troops

Funds will be reallocated to bolster “climate resiliency” and invest in clean energy. The request allocates $617 million for ensuring military installations can operate efficiently and recover from infrastructure disruption, R&D for new energy technologies and “climate-informed” wargaming, analysis and contingency planning.

Rooting out the supposed extremism within the military is another focus of the budget, with almost $31 million requested for strengthen tools to “identify and address extremism.”

NDP team up with Liberals

Federal New Democrats are ensuring the survival of a key piece of Liberal legislation aimed at keeping Canada accountable to its target of achieving net-zero carbon-related emissions by mid-century.

Parliamentarians are currently discussing Bill C-12 at a committee voting on a series of changes to the proposed climate law tabled late last year.

If passed, it would see Canada set rolling five-year targets to slash emissions of heat-trapping, climate-change-causing greenhouse gases, stopping in 2050.

Where’s the beef? To truly tackle climate change, Canada must get to a place where we don’t even ask

You may have heard – from such sources as Fox News, Donald Trump Jr., and Britain’s Daily Mail – that U.S. President Joe Biden’s climate change plans would include a law that would slash Americans’ beef consumption by 90 per cent. But no, Mr. Biden didn’t say that; after a frenzy from Republicans and American meat-eaters, the falsehood has since been retracted. But the non-news remains significant in this way: It signalled yet another serious cultural conversation taking place in the United States about meat production and its effect on the planet – a conversation that isn’t happening here in Canada as it should.

Climate emissions shrinking the stratosphere, scientists reveal

The thickness of the atmospheric layer has contracted by 400 metres since the 1980s, the researchers found, and will thin by about another kilometre by 2080 without major cuts in emissions. The changes have the potential to affect satellite operations, the GPS navigation system and radio communications.

Green Energy Is Causing Multiple Rolling Blackouts In Texas, Media Covering It Up

Texas gets approximately 24 percent of its energy from wind and solar, which is significantly more than the rest of the nation. The national average is only 3 percent from wind and solar. As the record cold hit Texas from February 8 to February 16, renewable power generation dropped from 24 percent to an abysmal 8.3 percent as turbines froze and solar panels were covered with snow.

In the weeks that followed, Leftist politicians and the media have embarked on an extensive PR campaign, trying to blame everything for the blackouts – except for wind and solar.

The main narrative tries to shift blame to the supposed failure of coal and gas backup power. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Chuck Schumer even doubled down on green energy, claiming that if Texas had enacted a Green New Deal, the energy crisis would have never happened.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Is Having A Baby In 2021 Pure Environmental Vandalism?

For the scientifically-engaged person, there are few questions more troubling when looking at the current climate emergency than that of having a baby. Whether your body throbs to reproduce, you passively believe that it is on the cards for you one day, or you actively seek to remain child-free, the declining health of the planet cannot help but factor in your thinking. Before I got pregnant, I worried feverishly about the strain on the earth’s resources that another Western child would add. The food he ate, the nappies he wore, the electricity he would use; before he’d even started sitting up, my child would have already contributed far more to climate change than his counterpart in, say, Kerala or South Sudan. But I also worried about the sort of world that I would bring my child into – where we have perhaps just another 60 harvests left before our overworked soil gives out and we are running out of fresh water. Could I really have a baby, knowing that by the time he was my father’s age, he may be living on a dry and barren earth?

O’Toole’s climate plan isn’t good enough for the media, so why bother?

Conservative Party of Canada leader Erin O’Toole has proposed a climate change plan he says will meet Canada’s Paris agreement commitments without killing jobs. Yet one week after announcing it, Justin Trudeau increased Canada’s emissions targets and the media is already asking O’Toole why his plan doesn’t go further. True North’s Andrew Lawton says this is proof the Conservatives will never win by playing on the left’s turf.

Why do white people hate Mother Earth? AOC, Sierra Club expose real causes of climate change

On Earth Day every year, we are bombarded with rhetoric that can easily be described as hyperbolic. In their zeal to get out their message, environmental activists go overboard. This year one reason for climate change is social injustice, according to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Another reason is spelled out in a letter to supporters of the Sierra Club – it’s white supremacy.
