Journalists are twisting facts to suit their political agenda
If you’re a hammer, everything looks like a nail. And if you’re a media ecosystem with a fixation on hammers, you will do your best to make anything look like a nail.
This is the inescapable conclusion from the reporting around a recent study, published in the peer-reviewed journal Temperature, which looked at the relationship between climate change and children’s fitness — and reported the findings entirely backwards to fit a pre-existing political narrative.
AP-NORC poll: Many in US doubt their own impact on climate
WASHINGTON (AP) — Americans are less concerned now about how climate change might impact them personally — and about how their personal choices affect the climate — than they were three years ago, a new poll shows, even as a wide majority still believe climate change is happening.
The June Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll, which was conducted before Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act on Friday, shows majorities of U.S. adults think the government and corporations have a significant responsibility to address climate change. The new law will invest nearly $375 billion in climate strategies over the next decade.
The Great Barrier Reef is not dying, and the world is not coming to an end.
So it turns out that reports of the Great Barrier Reef’s death were greatly exaggerated. For years we were told that this glorious coral reef off the coast of Queensland was being slowly strangled by mankind. The Guardian even published an obituary. It was literally titled ‘The Great Barrier Reef: an obituary’. ‘[The] seeds of the reef’s destruction are well embedded’, it declared. And we all know who was to blame for this ‘destruction’: marauding mankind. It’s always us. Shipping, the transformation of the reef into a tourist hotspot and, of course, Queensland’s evil coal industry have been on a ‘collision course’ with this natural wonder for decades, we were told. ‘Climate change is killing the Great Barrier Reef’ – that was the frank, scary verdict in 2017.
The Liberal government’s fixation with Trudeau-style climate action is fracturing Canada
Does it have the authority?
And, if indeed it does have the authority, a question not nearly as clear as the Liberal government believes or presumes, is whether it has the moral and political rights to exercise that authority? Just because something can be done is never the same as it should be done.
Ottawa considered jobs, global inflation in decision to return Russian turbine: documents
Newly released documents show that Ottawa considered the impact on Canadian jobs and global inflation in its decision to return a turbine being repaired in Montreal to a Russian energy giant.
The “memorandum for action” prepared by Global Affairs recommended Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly grant a permit exempting Siemens Canada from sanctions against Russia and allow it to return the equipment for use in a pipeline carrying gas to Germany.
Surprise! Siemens turbine repair facility is located in Quebec.
I’m certain that had no bearing on Trudeau’s decision of course.
But the Ukraine conflict has provided Trudeau’s Liberal party and other like minded Globalist schemers like Germany the perfect excuse to enforce their green-scam.
Had the turbines not been returned it is entirely possible that Germany would have dropped out of the Ukraine alliance due to domestic unrest and all of their green-scam plans would have been overturned. A domino effect would likely follow with other Euro states following Germany’s example creating a near death blow to Globalist ambitions.
Inflation? Trudeau has told us he never bothers with monetary policy.
One of the most interesting persons I interviewed for the New York Sun was Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace.
I had mistakenly expected him to be one of those left-wing environmental wackos, but he was anything but.
He had left Greenpeace after realizing that the group was more interested in social machinations than in helping humanity. He was also the only one in Greenpeace at the time with a scientific background.
Riots resulting from gas shortages would make anti-lockdown protests look like a “children’s birthday party”, one official has said.
Gas shortages in Germany brought about by a combination of long-term government mismanagement and Russia’s war in Ukraine are likely to prompt mass riots that will make previous anti-lockdown demos look like a “children’s birthday party”, an official has claimed.
Shortly after Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine in February, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau predicted it would be the impetus for the world to move faster towards replacing fossil fuel energy with green energy.
The push to transition the national road fleet to electric vehicles (EVs) is on and while increasingly popular with buyers, experts in the transportation space are examining potential problems with mass EV adoption.
One such issue involves EVs and evacuations during natural disasters.
A report from Transportation Research published in ScienceDirect headlined “Can we evacuate from hurricanes with electric vehicles?” found that Florida—which often bears the force of hurricanes—may not have enough power to cope during an evacuation.
“Electric vehicles” are the Big Lie of the Green-Scam.
Wind and solar will not provide anywhere near sufficient amounts of electricity to run vehicles on the scale we are used to seeing today no matter what the green-scammers say.
They will never be in use on a large scale without a huge investment in nuclear power to charge them and the scammers will never agree to that.
EV manufacture and disposal creates a brand new set of environmental hazards. And then there are the unique safety issues of EV’s, fire departments warn of lithium battery fires that are both highly toxic and difficult to extinguish.
They lie because they don’t want you to know that the plan is to ban privately owned vehicles.
Europe is suffering from an unprecedented energy crisis.
Household gas and electricity bills have soared with some countries now urging limited use of heat and hot water.
While Putin’s war has exacerbated the situation, Europeans can blame government policies for energy shortages and price spikes, which ironically has deepened the continent’s reliance on Russian natural gas and oil imports.
Politicians have found a new straw man: climate change. There are certainly many things we can gradually do not to pollute or wreck our planet, but blaming it for the pervasive slaughter of Christians by Muslims in northern Africa is not one of them. It seems, sadly, that what drives the persecution of Christians there, and elsewhere, is doctrine, not climate change.
On June 5, 2022, Muslims massacred 50 Christians inside a Nigerian church on Pentecost Sunday (one of many examples of Nigerian Christians massacred while worshipping in their churches).
Two days later, Ireland’s President Michael Higgins issued a statement linking the Nigerian church massacre to — climate change. “The neglect of food security issues in Africa, for so long has brought us to a point of crisis that is now having internal and regional effects based on struggles, ways of life themselves,” he wrote, implying that food shortages caused by the climate are what cause murder.
Just last week, congressional Democrats were urging President Joe Biden to declare a climate emergency because some Americans were enduring a patch of hot weather. Though more than a bit meshuga, they couldn’t match the fever of Bill Weir. The CNN chief climate correspondent said, also last week, that “the fate of life on earth is at stake” because Washington isn’t doing more to cool the planet.
Yet again, pieces of a puzzle a pre-schooler could put together in a couple of minutes are missing.
Politicians, in hoc to eco-extremists, have come to believe that consuming fuel is intrinsically sinful
No, the energy crisis is not some unforeseeable consequence of the Ukrainian war. It is the result of years of wishful thinking, preening and short-termism. We sit on 300 years’ supply of coal. We have rich pockets of gas trapped in rocks beneath Central Scotland, Yorkshire, Lancashire and Sussex. We have as good a claim as any country to have invented civil nuclear power. Yet, incredibly, we face blackouts and energy rationing.
