Cultural Wars, Economic, Environment, Political, Top Stories How would you react if you discovered that your bank manager knowingly accepted lower returns in your investment portfolio in order to bolster political causes his financial institution supported?

The ‘consensus’ of scientists against the climate scare
https://www.americaoutloud.news/the-consensus-of-scientists-against-the-climate-scare/ By Tom Harris We are told by activists, politicians, media and official science bodies that climate change science is “settled,” our emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are causing a climate crisis and we must take action to prevent dangerous global warming. Supposedly, only a handful of unqualified naysayers contest this conclusion.
The “consensus” of scientists against the climate scare
Energy, Environment, Globalism, Political, Top Stories We are told by activists, politicians, media and official science bodies that climate change science is “settled,” our emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are causing a climate crisis and we must take action to prevent dangerous global warming.

The myth of climate consensus: What they’re not telling you
https://www.americaoutloud.news/the-myth-of-climate-consensus-what-theyre-not-telling-you/ And even if there was convincing evidence that the vast majority of scientists who do research on the causes of climate change thought that there is a man-made climate emergency (there isn’t), they are not really in a position to recommend how society should respond to such an issue.

The myth of climate consensus: What they’re not telling you
We hear it all the time — the consensus of world scientists agrees that we are causing a climate emergency, and we must do everything possible to stop it! But it is a stupid statement that means nothing. Most scientists are not experts in the causes of climate change — people like biologists, particle physicists, material scientists, you name it — so most of their opinions don’t really matter.
Wind and solar will never be fossil fuels and nuclear power
Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | RSS So, you think wind and solar power are becoming economically competitive with fossil fuels and nuclear power? Not a chance, says our guest today, Dr. Howard Hayden, professor of physics emeritus at the University of Connecticut. Without very substantial government subsidies, wind and solar power companies could never compete with baseload power providers that use coal, natural gas, and uranium as their fuel sources.
UN climate science body corrupt to the core ⎯ what will the IPCC peddle next?
https://www.americaoutloud.news/un-climate-science-body-corrupt-to-the-core-%e2%8e%af-what-will-the-ipcc-peddle-next/ Since the creation of the IPCC in 1990, policymakers across the developed world have relied on IPCC assessment reports to create national and international strategies to “stop climate change.” The fact that climate change is almost an entirely natural process over which humans have little control makes no difference.
UN climate science body corrupt to the core ⎯ what will the IPCC peddle next?
The Trump administration’s stop-work order to all US government scientists participating in the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is a breath of fresh air. After decades of unscientific doom and gloom forecasts that never come true, climate scientists will have to now find a different vehicle to peddle their silly claims.

Trump drives a stake through the heart of UN climate science
“Without the US, the IPCC fails,” said Benjamin Horton, a past contributor to United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports and director of the Earth Observatory of Singapore. Horton explained, “The US puts more money, more personnel, collects more data and runs more models for climate science than the rest of the world combined.” Indeed, that is true.

Coal’s comeback: Powering America’s future once again
President Donald Trump’s drive to ensure Americans have the power they need when they need it, and at a price they can afford, is bringing back an old friend of the modern world—coal, black goal!

California fires caused by Woke policy choices, NOT Climate Change
Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | RSS Claims that the devastating fires in Los Angeles are caused by, or made worse by, man-made climate change are not based on reliable science. What is based on reliable science is the fact that if you leave a forest untended for years, as woke, Democratic politicians have done in LA, it becomes a tinderbox, ready to explode into raging fires as soon as ignition occurs.
To save coal, we must first understand it!
Energy, Environment, Globalism, Political, Top Stories Historians tell us that coal made the modern world.

Trump’s energy team: Bold moves for America-first policies
Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – The runway is short, and success is imperative, or Trump will become a lame duck in the last 30 months of his last term.

Is our atmosphere really heating up faster than ever before?
With the annual United Nations Climate Change Conference now underway in Azerbaijan, we are again being bombarded with doom-and-gloom climate alarmism. Perhaps the silliest and least substantiated is the latest assertion that the rate of warming today is greater than at any time in history. Climate sensationalists must have realized that the rise in the so-called global average temperature was not seriously concerning most people.

Mixing climate realism with humor at the Climate Discussion Nexus
There are times when the best response to the excited claims of climate alarmists is simply laughter. For example, we are told that climate change represents an “existential threat” to humanity and the planet. Yet the 1.2-degree Celsius change in the so-called “global average temperature” since 1880 would not even be noticeable in a single human lifetime.

Trump must get the US out of the Paris Agreement the right way this time - ‘Assert that Paris is indeed a treaty’ & ‘send it to the Senate’ for ratification - Climate Depot
Trump must get the US out of the Paris Agreement the right way this time! If Donald Trump wins the presidency for a second term, one of the very first things he should do when he enters office is again kill US participation in the Paris Agreement on climate change.

We need to “Mob The Mic” to wrestle the agenda away from climate alarmists
Environment, Globalism, International, Political, Top Stories “Mob the mic.” That is what climate activists have done over and over at City of Ottawa committee meetings and public events. This happens repeatedly across the U.S. and Canada whenever public meetings allow questions or statements from the audience.
Brilliant political and psychological strategists continue to trick the public
Energy, Environment, Globalism, Political, Top Stories Beating corruption in government takes a lot more than simply changing elected officials. It is also necessary to counter the corruption of the deep state — unelected bureaucrats intent on maintaining the status quo and, therefore, their own power. So it should surprise no one that, when a new mayor was sworn in in the city of Ottawa, Canada, things did not change for the better overnight.
Know your enemy in the climate war
We are currently living in a dystopian worldwide information deception bubble where evil is good, self-defense is genocide, patriotism is Fascism, and having secure borders is racism; there are no illegals, only people looking for a better life, which should be welcomed above and beyond the Indigenous peoples.
