Smokey Skies Does Not Mean Global Warming
Authored by Anthony Watts via American Thinker,
Every summer seems to follow the same predictable media script.
Wildfires ignite somewhere in North America. Smoke drifts hundreds or even thousands of miles. Air quality alerts are issued. Television stations fill the screen with hazy skylines. Then, before investigators have even determined how the fires started, headlines begin linking the smoke to climate change.
This year has been no different. As smoke from Canadian wildfires spread across parts of the Midwest and Northeast, much of the news coverage quickly shifted from reporting on the fires to treating them as evidence of a worsening climate crisis. Yet one crucial fact was often left out: many of the fires responsible for the smoke were ignited by lightning, a natural cause that has existed for as long as forests have.
Lightning is not new. Smoke carried by prevailing winds is not new. What is new is the growing tendency to treat every smoky sky...

Eco Loon Lobbies For Cameo In British Soap To Spread Climate Alarmism
Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity News,
BBC naturalist Chris Packham has openly requested a guest role on the fictional soap EastEnders so he can turn the nation's most-watched entertainment show into a vehicle for climate crisis messaging.
In comments reported by GB News and drawn from a Radio Times interview, the veteran naturalist described his fantasy appearance: an environmental disaster such as a flood hitting the fictional London borough, followed by him marching through as himself with a placard to lecture the locals.
Packham told Radio Times he wants the role because it "would give me the capacity to communicate to an audience which I don't talk to in my sphere of work."

Why the spectre of ′climate black swan′ events is haunting global investors (SCMP)
|
|
|
As a potentially record-setting El Nino threatens to push up global food prices – with an impact as great as the Iran war – some global investment banks have warned investors to pay more attention to the risk of “climate black swan” events: sudden, unexpected shifts in the climate with the power to upend markets.
The warning comes as the threat of a super El Nino disrupts the global rice market, as major Asian importers stockpile grain in anticipation of potential shortages. The trend could be......

Biden Bucks: Climate Change Funds A Bonanza For State Outfits
Authored by James Varney via RealClearInvestigations,
For much of its five-decade history, the Colorado Energy Office was a small department with a handful of employees who supported practical, cost-saving energy conservation measures. From 2010 to 2022, records show, the office received an average of $7 million per year from the U.S. Department of Energy.
All that changed after the Biden administration and Congress approved hundreds of billions of dollars in new spending to provide "a more equitable, low-carbon, and clean energy economy." In fiscal year 2024, Colorado's state energy office was slated to receive $157.5 million from the energy department, along with another $156 million from the Environmental Protection Agency. The Biden team's defeat in the 2024 election didn't stop the gusher, either, as an additional $60 million in funding was allocated after voters elected Trump and his promise to halt the spending.
