While the crazy Americans voted to break the stranglehold the elites have on their necks, Canadian elitist “elite” Justin Trudeau is proving those voters right. You should, at the next opportunity, and every one after that, keep these dangerous people as far from positions of power as possible. So ignorant are you? Feeding your kids. … Read more
Even though they stopped calling it global warming – something to do with the globe not cooperating with the approved narrative – warming is the single greatest talking point to justify climate socialism. Each year is reportedly hotter than the last. Books, movies, and television shows peddle the idea as if it were fact to … Read more
I’m picking on Kevin here because he’s written two mostly ridiculous articles following the November 5 election lamenting how Donald Trump won a stunning victory nationally, and Vermont Republicans shattered the Democrats’ supermajorities in both chambers of the legislature, but he’s not alone. I would have let it go and allowed him and John Walters, … Read more
Everything about the so-called push to electrify everything while replacing fossil fuels is a bad idea. The lower emissions monkeys are – first and foremost – doing the work in the wrong place. The emissions you are looking for are in Africa, Asia, India, and China, where a few weeks of hard work will get … Read more
Hurricanes are a pillar of the climate fearmongering community, so we tend to spend (perhaps too much) time on them. We think it matters. The conquest of American liberty is paved with things like government control of health care and energy (through climate policy), and 2024 was supposed to be the year the earth got … Read more
To whom it may concern: Advocates for the Clean Heat Standard insist that the program will only add a few cents to the price of fossil home heating fuels (oil, kerosene, propane, fossil natural gas), that the law, Act 18, is “only a study,” and that, if implemented, it will help low-income Vermonters by lowering … Read more
The Commission to Study Offshore Wind and Port Development is scheduled for Monday, October 28th, at 4:30 p.m. The meeting will occur at 222 International Drive, Suite 175, in Portsmouth, NH. Time is running out as the leases will be sold on October 29th. This is an urgent nonpartisan request. To show up, look at some of the problems … Read more
Much time and no amount of treasure will follow the steamrolling of wind farms into the (fragile) Gulf of Maine. The progressive whiners want what they want. And while there are many environmental reasons to slow down or stop, the biggest problem is … Well, this. I managed to take [Dr. Shahrar Ali] to task … Read more
For good reason, there has been a lot of focus on the supermajority’s intention to implement a carbon tax on home heating fuels (oil, propane, kerosene, natural gas) in order to meet the greenhouse gas reduction mandates of their Global Warming Solutions Act. The big vote on the Unaffordable Heat Act is coming up right … Read more
The hippies took Vermont over years ago, and the years of “recreational” drug use have finally shown up in their political offspring. I’m not laying claim or exclusive rights to the discovery. There are reams of evidence on these and like-minded pages, covering years, that make the case, but I think this rises to the … Read more
I hope you like salt because this might take a grain or two. A weather fearmongering tag team comprised of the Daily Mail and something called SafeHom.org has compiled some data to produce what they call “The Best & Worst States for Climate Change in the US.” Get a load of this. The signs are … Read more
Kirk is adrift, Leslie is lost, and Invest 97L is a hair west of Cape Verde and likely to follow them around the central Atlantic. Milton burned out fast after a CAT 3 landing (Sorry, climateers – no Cat 6 superstorm), making a mess, but that’s what hurricanes do, and a lot less often than … Read more
The prolonged drought of landfall hurricanes during the global warming era has been a sore spot for the Climate Chicken(s) Little. Regular readers know this and have come here regularly to reload their narrative blow torches for battles in the multi-platformed, not always social internet media universe. A search for Hurricane produces nearly 300 results. … Read more
We have over 300 bits of content on Electric Vehicles: articles, research, graphs, sales figures, losses in an investment, and (of course) evidence that they are not just not green; they are brown. From tires to weight, construction to transportation, mining, manufacture, disposal, and how the electricity they use is generated, they are brown. Hurricane … Read more
I have frequently written over the last several years that the agenda of the climate-alarm lobby in the western world is not consistent with the maintenance of democratic forms of government. Governments maintained by free elections, the free flow of communications and other democratic institutions are not able to engage in the kinds of long-term … Read more
We’ve no shortage of debunking on these pages when it comes to the hyperbolic prognostications of climate cultists. These are people whose gambling advice you’d best not take unless you know your bet is backstopped by endless federal grants to friends and family, who then fund their re-election campaigns to keep the cycle of fiscal … Read more
Helene turned out to be one nasty storm whose consequences were extreme in some unexpected places. That sort of thing tests people and systems, and while the folks appear to have risen to the occasion, as well as one Red State and its governor (Florida), the preferred system of the elites, the federal government, once … Read more
In the movie Tootsie, Bill Murray’s character is a playwright who has a running conversation with Dustin Hoffman about a scene he’s writing, “the necktie scene,” that’s just not working. He finally surrenders to Hoffman’s diagnosis of the problem, “I’m rewriting the necktie scene without the necktie.” I was reminded of this joke when I saw … Read more
There is a certain moral appeal to a system of pricing for consumer goods that incorporates the pollution costs involved in their production. Under such a system, in addition to the commercial “input costs” a producer paid to make a product, a fee for the toxins, water use, soil damage, or other environmental costs would … Read more
You know the story. For over three years, Joe Biden’s critics repeatedly pointed out what should have been obvious to anyone paying attention that the guy wasn’t mentally with it. However, despite evidence steadily piling up supporting that conclusion, the President’s supporters insisted he was fine. Even great! A sycophantic leftist press corps eagerly went … Read more
