[Master Thread] Environmentalism, Climate Change, etc.

[Dashinka 24,899]

I love reading some of the whack job extreme leftist sources have to share.  This one is great.  Of course the overall premise is wrong (no climate change did not cause the hurricanes, nor the fires in CA).  I also love how it fails to mention that it was the Biden Admin (run by Hunter) that was in charge when the hurricane hit. What is also amazing is how they think it is amazing how people come together when a natural disaster occurs.  This type of neighborliness should be the norm, not depending on some government entity.

It is amazing how the leaders of the church of Global Warming, Global Climate Change, Anthropogenic Global Warming, Anthropogenic Global Climate Change have attacked anyone questioning their often baseless findings or predictions.

 

How Al Gore Silenced Bill Gray...

Gore, with his immense political influence and backing from the climate alarmist movement, ensured that Gray was cut off from federal research funding. Before challenging the climate consensus, Gray had consistently received research grants from institutions like the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). After he began questioning the alarmist narrative, those funds mysteriously dried up.

 

Gray himself noted in a 2006 Denver Post interview that the climate change hysteria was based on politics, not science. He warned that grant-driven research was steering the field away from honest inquiry and toward predetermined conclusions designed to support policy goals rather than scientific truth.

 

According to Gray, he was bluntly told by colleagues that his skepticism had made him a liability. Without funding, his ability to continue his research and train new generations of hurricane forecasters was severely hampered. This wasn’t just about punishing Gray; it was a warning shot to the entire atmospheric science community: Dissent from the climate dogma, and your career will be over.

Poll Finds Majority Of Americans Would Support Wind Turbines If They Sliced Deli Meat As Well

WASHINGTON—In a major survey of public attitudes toward alternative energy as the climate crisis continues, a poll published Tuesday found that an overwhelming majority of U.S. residents would support wind turbines if they sliced deli meat as well.

 

"Everyday Americans want to know how exactly wind power is going to serve our community, and many more of us would be on board if, in addition to converting the wind's kinetic energy into electricity, those turbines also provided thinly sliced Cajun-style turkey breast," said survey participant and Iowa resident Jeanine McFadden, who went on to explain [...]
