America is successfully pursuing ESG = Extreme Shortages Guaranteed

Everything that needs electricity is made with the oil derivatives manufactured from crude oil. In an all-electric world, there will be nothing to power without oil.

Checkbook Journalism: Bought & Paid for Climate ‘News’: NPR Announces Facebook’s Zuckerberg & Rockefeller Foundation Will Be funding NPR’s ‘Climate Desk’

Climate Depot By Marc Morano | Sept. 17, 2022 NPR’s SVP of News and Editorial Director Nancy Barnes:  “No story touches as many people as climate change. Heat waves, mega-droughts and unprecedented floods are all becoming more intense and frequent. Climate related weather disasters are upending the way people live from China to California, from Pakistan to Florida. These extreme events have caused a global food crisis, the rise of new diseases and the displacement of millions of people,” added Kissack. “With the NPR newsroom and Member stations, we’ll strive to do stories that shape the national conversation on climate …

Climate Emergency Not Supported by Data, Say Four Leading Italian Scientists

Climate Emergency Not Supported by Data, Say Four Leading Italian Scientists

Daily Sceptic Chris Morrison | Sept. 14, 2022 Four leading Italian scientists have undertaken a major review of historical climate trends and concluded that declaring a ‘climate emergency’ is not supported by the data. Reviewing data from a wide range of weather phenomena, they say a ‘climate crisis’ of the kind people are becoming alarmed about “is not evident yet”. The scientists suggest that rather than burdening our children with anxiety about climate change, we should encourage them to think about issues like energy, food and health, and the challenges in each area, with a more “objective and constructive spirit” …

1,200 Scientists and Professionals Declare: “There is No Climate Emergency”

Bud Bromley | August 20, 2022 The Daily Sceptic article in the title is here. Consulting firm McKinsey estimated $9 trillion per year spending is needed to comply with the Paris climate accord!  Running that out to the 2050 date for 50% achievement of the “net zero” plan implies spending over $275 trillion. That’s $9 TRILLION PER YEAR …all loss and no gain. No reduction in CO2 and no reduction in warming will result.  https://www.mckinsey.com/business-functions/sustainability/our-insights/the-net-zero-transition-what-it-would-cost-what-it-could-bring This spending already is dramatically increasing the cost of every product and service.  The U.S. Democrat’s recently passed $700 billion spending bill is a down …

A few graphs say it all for Weather-Dependent “Renewables”

edmhdotme By Ed Hoskins A few graphs say it all for Wind and Solar power This is the 10-year productivity record for European Weather-Dependent “Renewables”:  that is the annual power output divided by the nominal installation rating of the Weather-Dependent “Renewables” installations over the last decade. Conventional power generation, Gas-firing, Coal or Nuclear technologies: produce much more energy for use by civilisation than the energy they need to be built and run:  Energy Return on Energy Invested.  Not so with “Renewables”. run 24/7 can be turned on when needed to match demand use small land coverage can be located close …

But unilaterally-imposed economic policy sanctions that coerce certain desired patterns of international trade and economic exchange may …

China Scraps (Already Scant) Climate Cooperation Over Pelosi Taiwan Visit

China Scraps (Already Scant) Climate Cooperation Over Pelosi Taiwan Visit

Heartland Daily News by H. Sterling Burnett | August 18, 2022 The Chinese Communist Party was very displeased with U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) well-publicized visit to Taiwan reaffirming the United States’ commitment to the island’s continued independence from mainland China. To demonstrate its displeasure—in addition to the usual rattling of sabers, sending of new naval ships into the area, flying jets into Taiwanese airspace, and test-firing missiles into the sea around the island—China announced it was suspending cooperation with the United States in the fight against climate change. Heaven forbid! After managing to control my uproarious laughter about China’s …
