I’m sure we can all sit back and relax, knowing they will announce how July 2024 was the hottest on record. I won’t be, but it is good to be prepared, and as a primer, June 2024 was not the hottest June ‘on record’ either.

“Green” Energy Policy Punishes Those on Home Heating Assistance
by Rob Roper
The Equity Advisory Group (EAG) to the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) heard testimony on July 9th from Richard Giddings of the Department of Children and Families about how the Clean Heat Standard law would impact low-income Vermonters who receive home heating assistance in the winter. The news was not good for LIHEAP (Low Income Heating Assistance … Read more
The Left Has A Newer Scarier Way to Describe the “Weather”
by Skip
I’ve been listening to the dystopian tears and screams of the Green Left for over 50 years. Not ONE of their predictions has ever come true. In fact, most haven’t even come close. Yet, they continue braying about their ideology.
Green “Energy Transition” Spent Two Trillion in 2023 and … Fossil Fuel Use Rises
An electoral reckoning is due, but so is an electrical one. The two are intertwined. A radical movement led primarily by the progressive left insists Americans must spend more to have less. We must electrify everything, they say. We must build enormous Easter Island-like shrines and monuments to appease the sun and wind gods (as it turns out) for nothing.
How to Neuter Them Gently (or not) On Early Hyper-Hurricane Season Narratives
Hurricane Beryl came on strong, degraded to a tropical storm, and then managed to get back to CAT 1 before it hugged the Texas Coast. Landfall Hurricane! The Climate Cult can’t help itself. Global Warming, Global Warming. Really? Global? Let’s take a look at that.
EVs, ICEVs, Repairability, and Outrage – Part 2
by Skip
Lloyd Alter at Carbon Upfront (heh! The “new” Treehugger”) is NOT a fan of the “Gigacasting” method that is overtaking the auto industry led by Tesla. That manufacturing technique involves high-pressure form/mold pressing of larger and larger parts for Teslas instead of press stamping lots of little pieces and then having to weld, rivet, or screw them all together.
Yep, The UN Is Not Above “Climate Catastrophe” Fearmongering; “We Have Two Years To Save The Planet!!!”
by Skip
I’ve been listening to these dire predictions for LITERALLY 50 years from mid-wits who don’t have the science chops to make such predictions. These bureaucrats use this tactic to wind up and create severe doom-and-gloom anxiety among actual nitwits.

Big Tech Conundrum: It Can’t Have A.I. and Reduce “Emissions” – Whatever Will It Do?
Artificial Intelligence is all the rage, but its pursuit—and that of profits—has created a problem. You don’t birth digital consciousness out of nothing. Even the most basic AI requires a lot of electricity, and the more powerful the system is, the more users call upon it and the more significant the “emissions” needed to keep it operating.
The World Refuses to End and Other Misc. Business
On the 2018 Summer Solstice, a climate witch predicted humanity’s doom if “we” did not stop using fossil fuels in the next five years. June 21st, 2024, has come and gone, and while we may still be doomed six years later, it is not because of fossil fuels. The people trying to force us off them are more likely to end us.
Harvard Study Finds EV Charging Infrastructure is Unreliable – Including Home Chargers
Harvard Business School (HBS) researchers, yes, THAT Harvard, have found that “Electric vehicle (EV) chargers have a high malfunction rate” and that “EV drivers can expect non-residential charging systems to not work approximately 20% of the time.”
Fossil Fuel Companies Won’t PAY for “Climate Change” – Vermonters Will
Vermont has just done something hailed by Climateers as groundbreaking and memorialized by The Week with the headline: ‘Vermont becomes first state to make fossil fuel companies pay for climate change.’
Really?
EVs, ICEVs, Repairability, and Outrage
by Skip
The old TreeHugger site, that batch of green on the outside but red on the inside Eco-Socialists, is gone forever. All of the DISQUS comments have been wiped out, and most of the more fun (e.g., combative) posts have also been deleted, including those by Lloyd Alter, who, I thought, was always on a Greenie track (with a socialist kicker of “Eat the Rich”).
Night Cap: The Rapid Change in “Climate Change” … Narrative
Most of you knwo about the years or fire predictions in the 1970s. Scientists believed we were at the beginning of another ice age. Experts, along with a compliant media, pimped story after story about the precipice of frozen doom and what we should do about it.
The Corn Ethanol and Water Pollution Boondoggle
by John Klar
Climate change activists increasingly target agriculture as a primary source of greenhouse gas emissions and pollution. Too often, this translates into condemnation of gentle cows or the pleasures of meat-eating instead of drawing attention to proper farming practices and land management. This is especially true with respect to water use and the ethanol industry. Water … Read more
The Climate Cult’s Horrible, Terrible, Past Few Weeks
Globalists and, closer to home, the Bidenistas have turned the bullish!t up to eleven in an effort to break the world. They are itchin’ for a fight, like an angry drunk poking you in the chest until you get mad enough to take a swing.
Volcanos and Earthquakes and Flooding… Oh My!
by NITZAKHON
As I see yet another volcano erupting – this time in Indonesia – it suddenly occurred to me: The Globalists want to dim the sunlight hitting the earth to, theoretically, fight climate change. They’ve openly talked about it.
Must See … Jesse Kelly Destroys Faux News And GOP Pretenders For Going Along To Get Along (“Climate Change”)
by Ed Mosca
The Democrats want 1,000,000 EV charging stations to combat climate change? That is extreme; that is too much; 500,00 tops! That is what passes for “conservatism” among the donor-class-GOP, the Establishment-GOP, the whatever-you-want-to-call-them-GOP. And that is how LOSING is done. Take a few minutes to watch Jesse’s rant:
The Bigger Threat Than Climate Change
The New England overnight has been cool in August, the nighttime sleeping temperatures at their optimum – which means cold enough to need blankets and very comfortable, in my opinion. Not exactly what you’d call a warming trend, but you could say the climate changed.
