Only 15 countries are willing to submit their Paris climate commitments on time – Will Watt get along with it?
Eric Worrall's paper “…The era of climate change cooperation is over…” – No programs include the EU, India, China and Russia. Only 15 countries have reached the latest Paris Agreement deadline. Is any country serious about addressing climate change? Published: March 20, 2025 AEDTDoug SpaitReaders of Cultural Geography and Communication at the University of Westminster The latest deadline for the country to submit plans to cut greenhouse gas emissions has passed.

Left's legal strategies to undermine Trump administrators are becoming increasingly annoying
This has become a predictable cycle: the Republican government has revoked heavy environmental regulations, a radical group is eager to court, and has a friendly district judge issued an injunction. [emphasis, links added] result? It takes several months or even years of expensive delay policies to take effect. This is not about winning the legal case, but about slowing down the crawling process. Groups against coal, oil and gas know that there may be a loss of appeals where the national ban belongs, but that is irrelevant. By the time the court finally ruled, energy investment had stalled, the industry…
A recent article dialoguewritten by Joshua M. Pearce, titled “Email signatures are harming the earth, potentially harming people’s lives – it’s time to stop using them,” bold claims; email signatures allegedly harm the environment and even “make life damage” due to its energy consumption. [emphasis, links added] This claim is not only false, but exaggerated, which is totally ridiculous. A deeper understanding of the actual energy use of emails, the infrastructure of the Internet, and the overwhelming impact of spam emails suggests that the climate hazards assumed by email signatures are trivial at best. “It is estimated that average emails,…
Daily Skeptics Will Jones An aviation industry expert told Reform Congressman and deputy leader Richard Tice that Heathrow is transferring from diesel backup generators to biomass, and the system “first inquiry” about the local electrical substation in the flames, Zero was accused of being a complete shutdown of Heathrow. this mail And more. At least 220,000 passengers were trapped in the UK and around the world after electrical fires closed the airport for at least 24 hours after the electrical fires closed down the airport, and the level of global travel chaos has caused global travel chaos compared to 9/11.…
Axios reported on Friday that as the United States first aligns with the Trump administration and lawmakers, new lobbying drives will bring green corporate welfare and carbon tariffs into marketing in the Biden era. [emphasis, links added] The Cleaners Economic Alliance (CEC) is a newly formed 501(c)(4) entity that “sees openness in the Trump era” to pursue carbon tariffs and saves 45 times the tax credit, an expensive subsidy for green energy manufacturing released by a bill – The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) – Regarding the way to become law, this has not won a Republican voteaccording to Axios. The…
Trump reopens coal-fired power plants on the grounds of U.S. energy demand and global competition
Donald Trump announced a massive reversal of U.S. environmental policy over decades on Monday, and he vowed to open coal-fired power plants “immediately”. [emphasis, links added] The United States has been detached from coal dependence since the discovery in the early 2000s that the coal-fired process emits carbon dioxide (CO2), which scientists say is primarily responsible for climate change. In the decades since, many Americans have turned to renewable alternatives and cheap natural gas as federal regulations raise operating costs for coal production. Now, Coal accounts for only 15% of all electricity generated in the United States, down from more…
Comment: As a net zero climate alliance hub, independent data providers must strengthen transparency efforts
The net-zero efforts of global financial institutions are responding to the ever-changing policy landscape. Recent media reports suggest that the Zero Zero Banking Alliance (NZBA) is considering relaxing or even removing some of its accountability processes as part of a broader overhaul. Zero Asset Management Net Manager Program (NZAMI) removed its commitment statement, signatories list and targets from its website in January. These adjustments have attracted criticism and attention in the world’s most prominent net zero zero alliances about how best to increase ambitions and track progress in financial institutions with their own net zero commitments. However, independent research organizations…
Heartland Research Institute Greenpeace activists have used legal systems for decades, “direct action,” intentional destruction, and even violence against energy companies and workers. Well, the table has been better. A North Dakota jury decided this week that Greenpeace must pay a staggering $667 million to oil companies’ energy transfers to incite protests, encourage violence and damage the company’s reputation. Before the verdict, Greenpeace said such a decision would bankrupt the organization and exterminate it. Well, Greenpeace is a dinosaur, and this is their asteroid. Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken and Jim Lakely of the Heartland Institute will discuss this…
For California progressive lawmakers, the introduction of an ideologically driven bill is not entirely unheard of, aiming to make a point of view rather than address any problem, but it is difficult to tolerate such nonsense in a crisis. [emphasis, links added] California's insurance industry has been in a state of collapse in recent years with a series of devastating wildfires fleeing. The latest Los Angeles fire will bring insurers more than $30 billion to the minds of policy makers. We have seen some progress as a few responsible adults pass a series of insurance reform departments that relax the…
No, the press release, is the so-called “cold spot” in the Atlantic Ocean not a harbinger of the collapse of the Atlantic current – Watt?
An article published on News Breakthrough (NB) titled Scientists issue emergency warnings about mysterious “cold spots” in the ocean: “most likely to be underestimated” A “mysterious cold spot” signal in the Atlantic Ocean indicates that the Atlantic meridian capsulation cycle (AMOC) is about to collapse, which could have “disastrous” consequences. This statement is misleading at best. In fact, AMOC is not weakening at an unprecedented rate, nor is it on the verge of collapse – long-term data and historical trends do not support such a horrible prediction. As mentioned above, the “cold spots” seen in satellite data derived from NASA…
