New Ham Last week, Gov. Chris Sununu signed the state’s first law pertaining to these programs, which will fund a Department of Revenue Administration study on the potential lost timber tax revenue and require the Division of Forestry to create a registry of all carbon offset sites in the state. It was introduced in the state House … Read more
Last week we reported on accusations that Verra, a business that takes money and then claims to protect South American Rain Forrest so Big Everything can claim to offset their carbon footprint, was a scam. What are the odds there would be a second carbon credit scam?
One of the earliest schemes to ping my radar as a political blogger was the green movement’s idea of buying indulgences for emitting. Even in 2008, Carbon offsets had all the makings of a confidence scam.
Tucson, Arizona, markets itself to the Nation using many Buzzwords and Catchphrases: Pioneer, 3rd in the Nation, Sanctuary City, Climate Action Hub. Then, Mayor Regina Romero takes vow after vow to promote her stance on human rights. Tucson’s mayor vows to protect families from separation. Regina, with her creative accounting and offsetting, is third in … Read more
Having worked in every sort of restaurant, I am very forgiving. I get it. Full service, fast food, delivery, I’ve done it all. I also tend to tip above average even though I live a modest lifestyle because I get it. Even subpar service is worth something. But on Saturday, our server plumbed new lows.
China recently banned the importation of Japanese seafood, claiming current releases of decade-old wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear power plant threaten citizens’ health. US Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emmanuel was diplomatically dispatched to publicly eat Japanese fish to combat China’s claims.
My last article highlighted the fact that the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) is only now beginning to contemplate how to write the rules regarding how Vermonters can retroactively “bank” so-called “Clean Heat Credits” back to January 1, 2023, and continue to bank them until the Clean Heat Standard goes fully into effect sometime in 2025.
Electric vehicles cost more to insure. Minor accidents can result in damage that makes the vehicle unsafe or unrepairable. A parking lot fender bender could “total” your so-called green vehicle. But that’s not the only insurance cost driving up the price of EV ownership.
One thing more accurate than any other when talking about the climate cult is emissions offshoring. Specifically, ignoring the carbon production required elsewhere to ‘Green’ up (on paper) here. But it also applies to the activity exerted in the name of forcing others to bow before the same alter against their will.
Let me know if you can see the fraud from here? “Local” Climate activists are pushing petitions (warrant articles) in town elections all over the state. The Citizens Climate Lobby is proposing a carbon fee that is collected and then (wait for it) returned to the people.
New Hampshire Democrats are proposing a tax that would hike the price you pay for gasoline, heating oil, propane, and electricity produced by coal, oil, gas, or wood. All of that. And, everything else. The bill calls for a fee based on the per-ton emission of carbon dioxide, starting at $20 per ton in 2020 … Read more
New Hampshire legislators have devised various schemes over the years to protect the logging industry from market forces. The latest scheme comes in House Bill 123, as amended. Promoted as “closing a loophole” in the state’s Timber Tax, HB 123 in fact creates a new tax on revenues generated from sales of carbon credits. The new … Read more
Bill Gates’s “Breakthrough Energy Ventures” has backed a startup called Graphyte that just pulled a George C. Parker on American Airlines. Parker was famous for selling the Brooklyn Bridge to rubes for large sums. As often as twice a week until, years later, he was finally sent to jail for life. We can only hope … Read more
The current Grand Solar Minimum is expected to last until about 2035, by which time the overall average temperature of the earth will likely have declined a few degrees. But wait, you say, Wasn’t it hot? In some spots, sure, but in others, it was cold, and the long-term averages will be lower (get into … Read more
BUD Stock rebounded (a bit) in June, as Bug Light sales continue to flounder. You can buy that swill for a song after the Mulvaney mishap, which overshadowed another woke move we all missed. Bud Light might be gender neutral Bud Light “Next” is climate neutral.
Not much good can be said about the publication Newsweek, but for reasons not yet clear, it has allowed an opinion piece by Scott Atlas to appear under its banner. Something of an almost apology, apology.
Our readers are no strangers to reports, exposes, documentaries, or commentaries about one of the green movement’s biggest lies. It’s not only not green; it’s brown and black and killing brown and black people.
Vermont has a lot of things we don’t have here in New Hampshire. They’ve got a State income tax. They’ve also got a majority Democrat legislature, and yes, those two things are related.
Every time I think that they can’t get more fixated, they push my expectations to new lows. As in, “you WILL have a diminished standard of living, and you WILL be happy about it because you are saving the planet.”
Wealthy one-percenters with private jets are miffed that their flight plans and travel are public. Thanks to the internet machine, the comings and goings of the climate cult elite are being shared with people who actually think any of that matters, and the backlash has been beautiful.
