Today’s SCOTUS ruling is a historic win for families who want SCHOOL CHOICE NOW! #SchoolChoice is a civil rights issue, and no parent should have to send their child to a failing school. I will continue to fight for School Choice and will always defend Religious Freedom!

Trump should post a picture of the McCloskeys protecting their property with his voice saying “I will always protect your Second Amendment Rights”.
Prominent Environmental Activist Apologizes for ‘Climate Scare’
THOMAS D. WILLIAMS, PH.D. 29 Jun 2020
FTA
Well-known climate activist Michael Shellenberger has issued a public apology for the unfounded panic caused by environmentalists over the fabricated horrors of global warming.
Writing for Forbes Monday, Mr. Shellenberger — a Time magazine Hero of the Environment and winner of the 2008 Green Book Award — said that on behalf of environmentalists everywhere, “I would like to formally apologize for the climate scare we created over the last 30 years.”
“Climate change is happening. It’s just not the end of the world. It’s not even our most serious environmental problem,” Shellenberger declares.
As an Expert Reviewer for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), “I feel an obligation to apologize for how badly we environmentalists have misled the public,” he states.
Mr. Shellenberger proceeds to deny 12 climate myths that have been drummed into the modern psyche, but which have no basis in scientific fact.
“Humans are not causing a ‘sixth mass extinction,’” he begins, the Amazon “is not ‘the lungs of the world,’ and climate change “is not making natural disasters worse.”
Moreover, he continues, a few key facts help put global warming and its supposed effects into perspective.
“Fires have declined 25% around the world since 2003,” he states, and the amount of land we currently use for meat “has declined by an area nearly as large as Alaska.”
Contrary to popular belief, it was not climate change but rather “the build-up of wood fuel and more houses near forests” that caused the rise in the number and ferocity of fires in Australia and California, he continues.
“Carbon emissions have been declining in rich nations for decades and peaked in Britain, Germany and France in the mid-seventies,” he adds, a key piece of information for those tempted to place the blame for air pollution and carbon emissions on the backs of affluent nations.
“We produce 25% more food than we need and food surpluses will continue to rise as the world gets hotter,” he states, and wood fuel “is far worse for people and wildlife than fossil fuels.”
All of these facts will sound like “climate denialism” to many people, Shellenberger admits. “But that just shows the power of climate alarmism.”
Shellenberger writes that until last year, he avoided speaking out against the climate scare, in part because he was embarrassed, since he was “as guilty of alarmism as any other environmentalist.”
But then, last year, “things spiraled out of control,” he notes.
“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said, ‘The world is going to end in twelve years if we don’t address climate change.” Britain’s most high-profile environmental group claimed ‘Climate Change Kills Children,’” he writes.
These and many other statements led to a glut of misinformation that left people around the world terrified and completely misguided about the reality of climate change.
This, in turn, impelled Shellenberger to issue an extended formal apology for “our fear-mongering” in the form of a book, Apocalypse Never: Why Environmental Alarmism Hurts Us All.
When it comes to facts triumphing over fear, it’s better late than never.

Two weeks ago, Politico accurately described what @realDonaldTrump and @parscale and @jaredkushner know:https://t.co/bZfdEwBFXt— Carlos Osweda (@COsweda) June 30, 2020
It’s going to take a generation to unring the climate scare bell.
I do not understand why people shop at Target. Yes, the products are cheap. That’s exactly the problem. They are cheap and SHODDY! I think I’ve been in a Target twice, maybe three times. I would have stopped shopping there for the bathroom policy, but well, I would have had to start first in order to stop!
We only have 11 years left.
I’m not sure I’ll be around in 11 years but if I am I will be sure to look AOC up just to laugh in her face.
Yep! Agree!
My Mom made sure to let me know they’ll be on Tucker Tonight.
He’s dragging out the McCloskey interview for max ratings.
