By Eurekalert. Have you heard of or even seen lightning? These are not animation characters, but real atmospheric phenomena called electrical emissions above thunderstorms. Scientists call them “Red Elf”named after its jellyfish-like appearance and vivid red glitter. Now, imagine witnessing these fascinating displays on the world’s tallest mountain range (Himalayas)! On the evening of May 19, 2022, two Chinese astronomers Angel An and Shuchang Dong captured a spectacular display of more than a hundred red elves on the Himalayas. The observation site is located near the southern Tibetan plateau near the Tibetan Lake (one of the three sacred lakes in…
Source: Climate Warehouse (via Guardian) Well, well, the guy who looks like Greenpeace finally tastes his own medicine. A North Dakota jury slammed the environmental darling with a bill that was hundreds of millions of dollars to pay to energy transfer partners, the Dallas oil and gas titan behind the Dakota access pipeline. The delicious verdict was announced today linked to protests in 2016 and 2017 that failed to stop the pipeline. Energy Transfer claims Greenpeace’s “misinformation” campaign incited criminal antics and smeared their good names for $300 million. jury? They ate it with the company for the most part.…
This post is an important follow-up to my previous post, please follow this money: How climate bureaucrats rob taxpayers blindly, I detail how the billions of dollars of taxpayer dollars are used for political nonprofits under the guise of climate activism. [emphasis, links added] If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend that you do so, and it sets the stage for understanding this latest shocking judicial intervention. In a stark example of judicial activism, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan recently blocked the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) legitimate efforts to snap up $20 billion in hasty grants for climate…
Spring is coming – at least formal.The equinox arrived on Thursday, marking the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and the decline in the Southern Hemisphere. On the equator, it will be directly overhead at noon. The Spring Equinox is the only time to be illuminated by the sun at the same time.These events have been marked and celebrated worldwide for centuries. For example, Iran's New Year Nowruz is based on the vernal equinox. On the Mayan website Chichen Itza in Mexico, people gathered to watch the sun during the vernal equinox to create a snake-like shadow pattern similar…
Democrats are relying on a recent memo from the Administration’s Accountability Agency to argue that President Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans are unable to pass a bill that repeals Biden-era waivers that allow California to authorize electric vehicles in the state. [emphasis, links added] But legal experts say the memorandum (the author includes a well-known Dei activist) is not legally binding and relies on suspicious reasoning. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) (GAO) published earlier this month a memorandum earlier this month amid Democratic Senators Adam Schiff (California), Alex Padilla (California) and Sheldon Whitehouse (RI) demanded the issue. The memorandum then…
To implement legislation, New York Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul signed a bill on December 26 called the “Climate Super Fund” Act. [emphasis, links added] The new state law blames a small number of energy producers on climate change and pays corresponding financial liability for damages that have been accused of in the past, or may occur in the future. It forces oil and gas companies to pay $75 billion in fines to the so-called “climate superfund.” New York is the second state to launch such a super fund. Vermont did so last July and it is fighting the law proposed…
Julius Sanks Back in 2005, Accuweather probably joined other commercial weather companies to convince former Senator Rick Santorum to introduce a bill, Chapter 786, the 109th Congress, to prevent NOAA and NWS from sharing data available to commercial vendors. The only support comes from the weather company. Most people think that means paying for weather data that taxpayers already funded – if they can even buy from suppliers. The bill did not receive a co-sponsor; the peer bill did not appear in the house either. It died on the committee. Does Accuweather try again using the 2025 project? The Heritage…

[emphasis, links added] Despite the agenda of the formerly ruled Social Democrats (SPD), the Greens were rejected by German voters in the federal election last month, After refusing a coalition with the German populist right alternative (AFD), Friedrich Merz, the boss of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), which is said to be led by the central right, continues to meet their demands. Public broadcaster DW reported that the federal parliament would vote on changes to Germany's…
A federal judge on Tuesday blocked the EPA from withdrawing about $20 billion in climate currency, and the Trump administration said the door was pushed open by the departing Biden administration. [emphasis, links added] U.S. District Court Judge Tanya S. Chutkan said the Environmental Protection Agency had “no legal reason” about why recipients who tried to make money or give the money a chance to object or challenge the decision. She issued a temporary restraining order against the EPA. “It is certain that agencies can decide to reevaluate their plans, or they can decide to terminate the agreement or federal…
Transcript: In the world's largest refugee camp, located in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh, most people live in temporary housing built with bamboo and plastic tarpaulins. During the monsoon, these shelters are often damaged or destroyed, and as the climate is warming, these shelters are intensifying. In the heat wave, they become very hot. Jahan: “Because of poor ventilation in these houses, people living there often suffer from respiratory diseases, but also have heat-related diseases in the summer.” That was Farjana Jahan from the International Centre for Research on Diarrhea in Bangladesh. As part of the pilot project, her team built six…
