MasterResource previously announced the launch of “Climate Truth Tellers” by the Sierra Club to flood social media with comments on climate and energy issues from the alarmist, statist, Climate Industrial Complex perspective. “Climate disinformation is rampant on social media,” the project stated, “but the volunteers of Sierra Club’s Climate Truth Tellers team are fighting back by uplifting positive, fact-based posts.” The “trolls” (like me) must be winning!
I challenged readers to sign up. We, too, can weigh-in on “How important is clean, renewable energy to you” and “How important is protecting our public lands from destructive drilling, mining, and fracking?“. I signed up. I am a Climate Truth Teller and wanted to get behind enemy lines and evaluate what the spoon feeding was about.
Jennifer McCharen sent the following to the CLIMATE-TRUTH-TELLERS list serve last week (May 29, 2026):
When asked about Paul Ehrlich receiving the MacArthur Genius Award, Julian Simon replied: “MacArthur! I can’t even get a McDonald’s!” Added Ed Regis in a Simon profile in Wired:

Chapter, “honoring the best journalism produced in the District of Columbia and metropolitan Maryland and Virginia.”
…A science writer covering climate change, its impacts and related politics.
“Following a pattern in other places like California and the UK, this solar boom has brought crime along with it. But here the trend is turbocharged by more remote expanses and entrenched organized crime….”
Solar power as grid electricity has many strikes against it, which is why outsized government favor is required.
It is dilute, requiring large infrastructure to concentrate it into useful energy. It is intermittent, with cloudy days and nights working against it. It is dispersed, creating spawl that ecologists once condemned, and transmission costly. It is unsightly and a blight to neighbors, lowering property values. It is fragile, with hailstorms and hurricanes promising wreckage.
Add to these another downside: thieving. As told by Antonia Mufarech in “Solar Thieves” [Bloomberg’s Green Daily (May 7, 2026)].…
