Bloomberg News: Big tech companies need lots of electricity, for data centers and especially for artificial intelligence. Homes are using more electricity for heating and cooling. Factories need more electricity to shift away from fossil fuels. ... That’s really going to disrupt the green transition. Power providers that have made pledges to cut back or eliminate carbon emissions are now starting to reverse course. Duke Energy Corp. plans to extend the life of its largest coal-fired power plant, which would push aside its goal to exit coal by 2035. Duke has said that its resource plans are not final decisions and are revised regularly.

Power providers that have made pledges to cut back or eliminate carbon emissions are now starting to reverse course. ... And all of that is before Donald Trump returns to the White House next month. The president-elect is well-known for his support of fossil fuels and his skepticism of climate policies.

Liberty Sentinel: The United Nations’ COP29 climate summit was supposed to be a financial renewal for the man-made climate change movement, shared Marc Morano, the publisher of climatedepot.com, but instead, it became a wake for the movement in light of Donald Trump’s win.

Morano: "I would love to have the shortest-lived federal job in US history. I would love to go work at the Pentagon. Give me two weeks. I want to close down every climate office and every climate directive and stop the funding of it all. And after two weeks, I retire and say my work is done, and I’ll walk away. That’s what I would like to do because Hegseth is making that one of his missions: shut all this climate nonsense down." Piscopo: "Yeah, it’s so true. I say to our producer, get Vivek on the phone, get, Elon, the DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency). Bring Marc Morano down to DOGE baby. We’re ready."

Open Thread

The only takeaways from the coal use data are that countries with sensible leaders are looking to the energy needs of their citizens and that climate is too complex an issue to attribute to a gas that is 0.04% of Earth’s atmosphere.

science, proceeding on skepticism, not certainty, is arguably the most successful human activity of all time. Its truths are temporary; progress, the saying goes, comes only at the funerals of philosophers and cosmologists.

The Nutrient Dilution claim is back...

As the NZBA and similar initiatives face growing scrutiny, it is time to rethink the entire premise of climate finance. Instead of chasing utopian visions, the focus should shift to policies and practices grounded in evidence, market dynamics, and a recognition of the complex realities of global energy systems. Until then, the exodus from these alliances will likely continue—and rightly so.

This finding suggests that extreme calving events such as the recent 2017 Larsen C iceberg, A68, are statistically unexceptional and that extreme calving events are not necessarily a consequence of climate change.

There is a case against the adoption of Net Zero given the enormous costs associated with implementing the policy, and the fact it is unlikely to achieve reductions in average near surface global air temperature, regardless of whether Net Zero is fully implemented and adopted worldwide. Therefore, Net Zero does not pass the cost-benefit test. The recommended policy is to abandon Net Zero and do nothing about so-called ‘greenhouse gases.’

The Trump Administration could use any of the Defense Production Act’s $1 billion in unobligated funds for stockpiling minerals. Depending on the final defense appropriations bill for fiscal year 2025, the incoming administration could tap even more funds, likely an additional $450 million to $900 million.

The result or this  atmospheric river and some weaken cousins this week, will be massive rainfall on the West Coast.

The graph shared by Javier Viños should serve as a wake-up call for anyone who’s been swept up in the climate hysteria of the past two years. While it’s tempting to view every uptick in temperature as evidence of impending doom, the reality is far more nuanced. Ocean temperatures are now back to levels seen in 2015, a stark reminder of the chaotic, unpredictable nature of the climate system.

"... the upper limits of human heat tolerance were breached for a total of 43 hours over the six days of Hajj. ..."

It’s a fact that humans are increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. But does it follow, as we’re constantly told, that this increasing of CO2 is poisoning the planet? What if the opposite is actually the case? This week’s guest, CO2 Coalition Executive Director Gregory Wrightstone, is going to explain why it’s not true that more CO2=Bad.

Cold kills and America is at great risk of deadly subzero blackouts. Renewables are part of the problem but gas is the biggest part. We now know that the supply system that feeds our gas fired power plants can be unreliable in extreme cold weather.

The dark financial tentacles of the Green Blob help curate mainstream media, brainwash young children, fund large areas of climate pseudoscience, initiate and finance lawfare operations and bankroll countless ‘grassroots’ agitprop operations. But political influence is highly prized, so local government representatives and city mayors are prime targets. Alas, these people come and go at the fickle whim of local electors. But not so the unelected members of the British House of Lords, who have considerable powers of altering proposed legislation from the elected House of Commons. It is hardly surprising that the noble lords and ladies have been targeted by the Blob given the potential for inserting Net Zero mischief into almost every type of legislation. Step forward Peers for the Planet (P4P), which claims a ‘caucus’ of 160 members, but was started as an activist body and is funded by sizeable contributions from the usual billionaire foundations.

Love him or hate him, Trump’s energy policies resonate with a significant portion of the electorate, particularly in energy-producing states. For these voters, Biden’s climate targets are not only unattainable but also actively harmful—sacrificing American jobs and energy independence on the altar of globalist climate orthodoxy.

[Our question] How can updating the Reference Manual to address junk science best be accomplished given such a massive input from entrenched academics in the past?

The path forward lies in promoting policies that balance environmental stewardship with economic growth and energy reliability. Courts should stick to interpreting the law, not rewriting it to align with activist agendas. Montana, like the rest of the world, will continue to face challenges from climate variability. The answer isn’t to hobble our energy systems—it’s to build a resilient, innovative society capable of adapting to whatever the future holds.

A new twist in European Genetically Modified Food politics?

Climate fearmongers think voters and consumers are powerless to stop this, since the process is playing out in state courts, where climate realist views and votes don’t count.

There still appears to be some naive puzzlement at the IES, that renewable energy is not replacing coal. They still have not worked out that countries like China and India know that they cannot run their economies on the vagaries of wind and solar power.
