Political figures who support the so-called Green New Deal and other proposals to restrict carbon dioxide emissions are up against some inconvenient facts that Americans may access immediately through a smartphone application, a geologist and author says.
But theres one big problem. The app, called Inconvenient Facts, is available only to Android users through the Google Play Store. Since March 4, users of Apples iPhone no longer can access the app through the tech giants App Store.
Gregory Wrightstone, a geologist with more than three decades of experience, told The Daily Signal in an interview that he has his own opinion about what may have transpired inside Apple.
Wrightstone is the author of the book Inconvenient Facts: The Science That Al Gore Doesnt Want You to Know, which served as the basis for the information available from the app.
He notes that former Vice President Al Gore, a leading proponent of the view that mankinds activities propel dangerous climate change, is a board member of Apple.
Its very rare for an app to be approved and then taken down unless there is offensive material or some other extreme issue, Wrightstone said of Apples action in a phone interview with The Daily Signal, adding:
We thought at first it may have been our fault. But I did a search on climate change and global warming in the Apple App Store and pulled up a whole bevy of pro-man-made global warming apps that are really bad. They are not formatted, they have incorrect spellings and no links.
But I suppose they have the political narrative right. Compared to these, our app is the gold standard. I made sure we had charts and links and references to the source for our data. This is all right in the palm of your hand.
A total of 60 facts in Wrightstones book are available through the Inconvenient Facts app to Android users. Complete with data, charts, and videos, they challenge the premise of alarmist theories about climate change that link man-made emissions to dangerous levels of global warming.
Before reversing itself March 4, Apple initially approved the Inconvenient Facts app for sale Feb. 3. Since that time, the app has been downloaded 13,000 times, according to figures Wrightstone provided.
He also points out that the app has earned positive reviews.
A key takeaway here is that Apple has a monopoly over iPhone apps and the Apple App Store is the only place to get them, Wrightstone said. It appears that Apple has chosen to weaponize its control over purchasing apps to stifle science that doesnt conform to its politically correct notions.
Users who tap on the Inconvenient Facts app have access to images and data that run counter to much of what was presented in Gores documentary films. Some examples:
Inconvenient Fact No. 53: There are more polar bears now than weve had for 50 years.
Inconvenient Fact No. 10 cites a Recent Inconvenient Pause of 18 years in warming, despite rise in CO2.
Inconvenient Fact No. 12: Modern warming began long before SUVs or coal-fired plants.
Inconvenient Fact No. 21: The current warming trend is neither unusual nor unprecedented.
I hope that Apple quickly fixes this. Im (hopefully) putting it down to some lower level agendanista activist. I haven;t seen this type of action previously.

Senator Bernie Sanders and his wife, Jane O'Meara, own this townhouse built in the late 1800s in the District of Columbia.
It's a one bedroom, one and a half bath with a brick exterior (Google maps)
Bernie Sanders acquired this waterfront vacation home in the Lake Champlain island community of North Hero, Vermont.
The historic four-bedroom home was built in 1920, and sits on 1.1 acres of land. (Screen Shot trulia.com)
Is Gore still a member of the Apple Board?
“lower level agendanista activist.”
How is board member Al Gore lower level?
From the article:
The Daily Signal sought comment from Apples media relations office by phone and email, asking whether the company would address Wrightstones allegations of political bias. Apple had not responded by publication time.
I learned of this from Stuart Varney on Fox Business this a.m. If you get a chance, watch his show from 9 to noon ET. Very conservative with free market info and commentary, and he does it with humor and good nature. I often find myself laughing at comments he makes and all have a good time while learning about the markets.
You can tell who’s lying by who’s trying to suppress information.
Would not be shocked Apple moving to China was Al Gores deal.
Uh, is that a wall and gate in the last pic? WTH?!
Hold on... This dude can’t be a geologist... 100% of all scientist agree with global warming... Just ask Al Gore.
He’s only a geologist.
Those snowflakes at Apple know better.

If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.
the Watt’s Up With That website has been fighting the Fake Science for Years despite a dedicated campaign to destroy it. Anthony Watts is frequently ejected from Scientific Conferences because they will not tolerate any contrary facts.
Al Gore strikes again.
Tim Cooke is a prevert sex slave of the chi comms. They promote “globull whining” as a way to destroy our industrial base while theirs catches up.
please re-ping this link to your lists, perhaps (....) if Apple gets a lot of requests to reinstate this app...
