On Friday’s edition of Bloomberg’s “Balance of Power,” White House Council of Economic Advisers member Heather Boushey discussed the pause in liquid natural gas (LNG) export approvals and stated that “we need to make sure that we, like other countries, are doing what we can do to address the climate change challenges. You started this segment by noting that it’s over 70 degrees here in D.C. in the middle of January.”
Boushey stated, [relevant remarks begin around 5:30] “Let me start by noting that the president, from day one, has had a whole-of-government approach to addressing climate change. And core to that has been making the investments we need to make to put the United States on the leading edge of investing in clean energy technologies and the capacity to produce those here in the United States and to shore up that global process there. Now, what we see in these exports is that, right now, the United States is the world’s number one exporter of LNG. And we know that, over the next decade, that’s actually predicted to double. And we’ve been working very closely and feel confident that we have enough to be able to assure our allies that we’ll be able to continue to play this really important role.”

Sunday last it was 14 degrees at my South Alabama home.
But that’s just weather, right?
An unusually warm winter day is evidence of climate change.
But then bad snow storms in Winter are also evidence of climate change.
And then , if you have days anytime of year, which are typical weather for that time of year, they tell us that you cannot go by day-to-day weather as evidence of climate change.
70 degrees means I need neither heat nor a/c. Save heap big $$$.
And right now it 59 degrees in D.C. Not 70.
See, this is the climate change horse s**t being peddled by the globalist.
My late mother called this weather the “January thaw.”
The real problem is that the big guy hasn’t yet gotten his 10%.
I bought into the climate change myth back in 1969. But i wised up after about a year.
What do you boneheads going to do about it. Morons.
The DC Globohomo Regime promised military equipment to Ukraine.
The DC Globohomo Regime promised the EU that it would help replace Russian gas.
Why does anyone still go along with these fools ?
Anyone who tries to affect public policy over a daily weather report, is a lying pos communist.
It actually got near 80 here just a few miles north of DC.
I’ve lived here for over 70 years. We often had Winter days like this when I was a kid.
We came back from Hawaii at the end of January...about 1972 and it was 70 degrees in Upstate NY.
That will certainly help the economy. /s
Wow! That there is one reeeeeeeeeeeal smart statistician. /SARC
This is just being done to decrease natural gas prices in the US for the upcoming election.
Remember the used of the Strategic Oil Reserve for the last election? This is the next incarnation.
It also teaches the Germans their energy needs to come from within.
And that has never happened before???????
WE got 14” +++ of snow on evening of Jan 10, 2024.
Been here 19 years.
NEVER had that much snow in one storm.
That they even THINK that way is horrific.
For reference, here are a few other high temperatures in January in Washington DC. There is no reason for hysteria over a 70 degree day in January. They are quite common.

I knew it. One day of 70+ degrees after two weeks of freezing our butts off and shoveling about 8” of snow total and they just can’t keep their mouths shut about the climate.
