“Rob Bradley the freedom to lie about our very real #climateemergency should be outlawed for crimes against nature- aka ecocide—as well as crimes against humanity.” (Rosenberg to Bradley. August 31, 2026)
“Please She/Her Rosenberg. Don’t assume, debate. Don’t pretend, research. Check the emotions and politics at the door and open your mind. There is good news about climate and energy if you are suffering from ‘climate anxiety’.” (below)
“It is a classic notion on the left in general, and of environmentalist zealots in particular,” noted Thomas Sowell, “that no one can disagree with them unless they are either uniformed or dishonest.” A salient example of this came with comments to a social media post by Laura Clarke, CEO of Client Earth, who wrote:
…Today’s news from New Zealand is a significant setback for climate accountability.
“Say ‘enough’ to the United Nations/IPCC/COP process. Call off the CO2 fests. Shift from mitigation (fail) to adaptation. Demote government, promote realism and civil society. And practice social justice with the new imperative: First, do no harm. That starts and ends with energy prices–no climate premium please.”
The Climate Majority Project (CMP) is predicated on a shaky premise:
Most people sense that the planet is in deep trouble and want to do something. Welcome to the climate majority.
Climate majority? Only from polls where responders can claim to worry without having to pay for climate action–and not be told that their collective actions will not affect local or global climate for decades, if ever. The pollsters might as well ask: “Do you want more or less extreme weather?” … “Do you want more or less safety?”…
“Crank up the cooling.” (WSJ, below)
It is adaptation time. Mitigation has failed, and no policy change, however radical, can affect global or regional climate for decades, if ever. As stated in a recent article in the New York Times:
Climate change means that the issue is most likely here to stay. Across Europe, “we think the summers are hot now,” said Joan Ballester Claramunt, a research professor at the Barcelona Institute for Global Health who focuses on climate change and health. “The future that we’re seeing, it could be much worse.”
So why didn’t the alarmist community push for A/C and other appliances to cool the air during the summer peak? They warned about ‘hothouse Earth’ but did nothing about it.
Did climate mitigation policy work against adaptation directly and indirectly?…
