    Watts Up With That ^ | 4/9/2025 | Robert Bradley Jr.
    Large-scale solar farms, wind turbines, and associated infrastructure are touted as solutions to the climate crisis, but their development comes at the cost of native forests and critical habitats.” “Until conservation charities disentangle themselves from government funding and corporate influence, they risk becoming complicit in the very destruction they were created to prevent.” ... One of the great ironies of our age is the double standard of Big Environmentalism toward wind and solar, which commit numerous eco-sins that would not be tolerated otherwise. Dilute, intermittent, and thus inefficient? Yes. Energy sprawl requiring service roads and transmission lines in the wild?...

    It’s a good thing their numbers are thriving. After Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gets done, polar bear safaris may be Canada’s only growth industry.. Legal Insurrection readers may recall that in 2019. I covered a book entitled “The Polar Bear Catastrophe that Never Happened” by Dr. Susan Crockford. The University of Victoria professor analyzes the latest data and reviews the questionable values in official estimates, concluding that polar bears are thriving. Subsequently, she was fired from her position at the university. However, it didn’t stop what she wrote from being true. The polar bear, the iconic image of the climate...

    Kamala Harris and the Democrats have gone strangely silent about the “climate crisis” they warned was an existential threat a few years ago.. Don’t look now, but the “climate crisis” is officially over. No need to take my word for it. Just ask the Democratic Party’s new standard bearer, Vice President Kamala Harris, who mentioned the topic “just once” in her acceptance speech at the recent Democratic National Convention, according to The New York Times. The Times also noted that Harris “has not offered any new policies for addressing climate change.” How far we have come in five short years....

    National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan completed a first day of talks with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Beijing on Tuesday in which he focused on “candid, substantive, and constructive discussions” on keeping the tenor of the bilateral relationship friendly, the White House detailed on Wednesday. Sullivan arrived for his first visit to China as national security adviser on Tuesday and is expected to stay through Thursday. Previewing his travel, potentially one of the last in-person exchanges between the administration of outgoing President Joe Biden and the Chinese Communist Party, an unnamed senior White House official predicted that Sullivan and...

    United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres warned of the evils of climate change Thursday, urging “greater ambition” to move away from fossil fuels. “Our climate is breaking down, threatening water and food security, driving displacement, and fueling political instability,” Guterres stated on X (former Twitter). “We need far greater ambition to slash emissions and deliver climate justice, starting with the biggest emitters,” he added. “Making peace with nature is the defining task of the 21st century,” contends the Portuguese Socialist. “It must be the top, top priority for everyone, everywhere.” Earlier this week, Guterres visited the former Soviet Socialist Republic of...

    ROME — Vatican representatives stoked fears of a climate emergency Thursday, insisting global warming is “bringing humanity to its knees.” In a Vatican press conference to present Pope Francis’ message for the World Day of Care for Creation, Father Alberto Ravagnani said that the climate crisis is a “dramatic provocation to our humanity” because when creation suffers, we all suffer. “The climate crisis is bringing the whole of humanity to its knees,” he declared. The environmental question “is particularly close to the hearts of today’s young people, because the current climate crisis looms over their future and that of their...

In fact, the scientists find that “California is in no danger of unusual drought: The annual precipitation in California has fluctuated greatly over the last 150 years, with only a slight decrease.” California also has record low levels of air pollution that are below the threshold of human health effects, James E.

    Increasingly, Americans of all generations are suffering from climate anxiety. There are, of course, a growing number of people who are directly impacted by climate disasters — severe weather, extreme heat, wildfires, even sunny-day flooding. But there are also an increasing number of people who are simply prone to worry — and in some cases, outright panic — over the freakish images and disturbing forecasts about the long-term impact of climate change that are now unavoidable. “We have an epidemic of anxiety,” said Dr. Heidi Schreiber-Pan, a Towson-based psychotherapist whose practice focuses on harnessing nature’s potential in therapeutic contexts. “More...

    A world-renowned Arctic scientist has spoken out to debunk the globalist “climate crisis” narrative and warn the public that the Earth is actually heading for a period of “global cooling.” Leading polar expert Andrey Fedotov of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences declared that “warming is about to end” and the planet is about to enter an “ice age.” “We will inevitably transition to an unfavorable cold,” he warned, according to the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS). According to Fedotov, the director of the Limnological Institute of the RAS, the period of “unfavorable cold” will begin around...

    Has the air gone out of the “climate crisis” balloon? It’s starting to look like it. Some other causes du jour are looking limp lately, too. Oh, hysteria is still out there. In Boston this month, I passed a church where the door bore a lurid poster reading “DUE TO GLOBAL CLIMATE CRISIS, WORSHIP IN SANCTUARY 9-17-23 CANCELED.” If it were really a global crisis, wouldn’t you want to be praying? ... While the soldiers of God had fled the scene in advance, the armies of Mammon were out in force on the Boston Common, in the form of a...

    Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has admitted that “climate crisis” prophecies of doom are a hoax. In a major U-turn, climate alarmist Gates backtracked and confessed that “global warming” does not have apocalyptic consequences. Gates reportedly told a group of his fellow globalist green agenda advocates that the “climate doom” narrative has now become so exaggerated that the public now sees right through the charade. The admission from Gates is a major shift for the billionaire who has been a leading proponent of the “climate emergency” narrative. For years, Gates has been championing the “Net Zero” goals of the unelected bureaucratic...

    resident Biden on Saturday said that no intelligent person can deny the impacts of climate change after the president toured storm damage in Florida from Hurricane Idalia. “Nobody can deny the impact of climate crises - at least nobody intelligent can deny the impact of the climate crisis anymore. Just look around, around the nation and the world for that matter,” Biden said while in Live Oak, Fla. “Historic floods, intense droughts, extreme heat, deadly wildfires that have caused serious damage that we’ve never seen before.” He traveled to the Sunshine State to survey damage, meet with survivors and thank...

    Climate alarmists at the UK’s Guardian newspaper warned Monday a quarter of European ski resorts will face scarce snow because of global warming. The very existence of many European ski resorts is in jeopardy, the Guardian’s environment editor reports, since 25 percent of European resorts will suffer a snow shortage every other year with 2ºC of “global heating.” The article cites a study titled “Climate change exacerbates snow-water-energy challenges for European ski tourism” published this summer in the journal Nature Climate Change. “Ski tourism is a substantial component of the economy of mountainous regions in Europe and is highly vulnerable...

    Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said Monday on MSNBC’s “Ana Cabrera Reports” that the “climate crisis” was one of the “most prominent threats that we face.” Cabrera asked, “Zooming out when you look at all of these natural disasters happening at the same time, and it just seems like the hit keeps coming, former DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson, someone who has held your role before, has told me he believes the climate crisis may be the greatest threat to U.S. national security. Do you agree with that?” Mayorkas said, “I think it is one of the most prominent threats...

    References to climate change almost guarantee funding, even for research topics of little interest beyond academia and eco-activists. Polls reveal that most people worry most about energy and food prices, crime, living standards, Putin’s war on Ukraine, and increasing efforts to control their lives. A recent Rutgers University scientists sought to determine how much diversity is required among bee species to sustain wild plant populations. They concluded that ecosystems rely on many bee species to flourish – and “biodiversity is key to sustaining life on Earth,” especially with many species “rapidly going extinct due to climate change and human development.”...
