Climate hysteria, which was always about power and money, finally seems to have peaked, and President Trump helped lead the way.
There has been a huge shift within the public and private sectors on climate change as it has dawned on governments and companies that the United States, under President Donald Trump, will no longer be a patsy to a cabal of international elites who seek to impose costly climate restrictions upon American businesses and international climate boondoggles upon nations.
Trump’s actions are draining the climate swamp of resources, supporters, spirit, and momentum. These include defunding climate boondoggles across federal agencies, pulling the United States out of the Paris climate agreement, withdrawing the United States from dozens of climate-monitoring and wealth-transfer organizations (most importantly the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change), and rescinding the greenhouse gas endangerment finding.
With America no longer playing the fool, public and private entities are withdrawing from or reducing their climate commitments and reembracing fossil fuels. Of course, this would not happen if they really believed the hype that the world faces a pending climate catastrophe that can be stopped exclusively by eschewing fossil fuels. They are tacitly admitting Trump is right and climate change is a scam/hoax.
Examples of the rapid decline of the climate alarmism narrative are all around us. For example, the UN IPCC recently held its 64th meeting of the science committee, at which it failed to set a date for the production of the next IPCC Assessment report. It’s not just that they can’t agree on who will write the report or what its scope will be, they can’t even decide on a deadline for when to produce and publish it.
At an international meeting in Colombia this April, 60 countries agreed on the need to phase out fossil fuels

The issue is never the issue.
Color italics bold underlined red blue and extra large fonts…. Simplify! Put everything in black plain text and bold sparingly. Otherwise it just looks like you are trying to get attention. If you want people to read it, try a little humility.
Thank you for your constructive criticism.
I used the blue color to show the entire post from several years ago and red to stress the important point for the TL/DR people. That is okay if you are one of them.
And thank you for informing me that you think I lack “humility”. Like most human beings, including you, I can always used more and I recognize that. I assume after reading your post, you recognize that in yourself as well.
