Scientists may intend to report unusual modern warming due to human activity, suggesting that all or nearly all modern warming and treeline advancement at Rocky Mountain ice mass sites occurred between the 1910s and 1940s. [emphasis, links added] An interesting observation was found in the text of a new study (Pederson et al., 2025): 30% of the world’s forests have not even warmed in modern times (1900s to present)and only 50% of the world's forests have not yet moved uphill. This appears to challenge the narrative of global warming. “Changes in local conditions may explain why the recently recorded global…
“Sustainable” investing became popular a few years ago. So-called experts say businesses should not just focus on profits. They should try harder to be “nice.” [emphasis, links added] Funds promoting ESG (environmental, social and governance) are all the rage. Large investment firms like BlackRock are putting pressure on companies to hire more women and minorities. CEO Larry Fink announced, “All investments will be looked at through the lens of sustainability.” But “sustainability” is basically a meaningless word. Parnassus claimed it By investing in American food companies and Clorox Company, we help achieve the United Nations' sustainable development goals of “nutrition”…
Kip Hansen's News Brief – January 22, 2025 – 750 words/3 minutes This is a popular science guide: “Imagine living to be over 100 years old with virtually no health problems.

Saul Justin Newman, a senior researcher at the university, first published a new study on the concept of “blue zones” in a preprint archive in March 2024, where the proportion of older people appears to…
Some publications indicate that the fires that occurred in Los Angeles and other areas of Southern California in January 2025 will destroy it and build in its place a “smart city” “adapted to the 2030 Agenda”. While authorities continue to investigate the cause of the fires, expert analyzes compiled by different publications point to dry weather, wind currents and atmospheric conditions as the most likely explanations. Although the Los Angeles city government has incorporated the concept of “smart cities” in its “SmartLA” plan, similar to what has been circulated, it has never proposed the destruction of the city or its…
Transcript: Wildlife researchers often spend a lot of time peering through binoculars or monitoring trail camera footage. But Elizabeth Zniedelsik of Australia's Charles Sturt University prefers to listen. Zinedcic: “I first became very interested in sounds when I was studying mysterious marsh birds. So you don't usually see these birds, you just hear them. So, to monitor the birds, she placed audio recorders in the marsh. She discovered that during a major flood, the Australian marabou storks stopped their mating calls. Zinedcic: “Now, when the water levels come back down, which is a little further from their breeding season, the…
As of Thursday, much of Maryland was under a National Weather Service cold weather warning, with temperatures plunging below freezing. “It's a pretty strong impact in terms of how cold it is. We're not breaking any daily records, but it's certainly going to keep temperatures well below normal,” Weather Service meteorologist Brendan Rubin- Oster said. [ Get the latest weathercast from FOX45 News ] He said temperatures were 10 to 20 degrees below average. Harford County Public Schools and Carroll County Public Schools will reopen for two hours Wednesday night as they still deal with the aftermath of this weekend's snow showers…
From the Daily Skeptic Chris Morrison On Friday 24 January, the UK Parliament will vote on a Private Members' Bill that could lead to mass starvation, widespread illness and death within a few years, and the almost certain collapse of civil liberties and society. The bill has the support of a third of voting MPs and there is a clear and present risk of passing it. With many MPs heading to their constituencies on Friday, the remaining 200 fanatics may have a chance to vote for themselves. The bill is a thinly veiled attempt to use pointless litany of climate…
from main source Author: Robert Bradley Jr. “The enemy is not Donald Trump and never has been. The enemy is nationalism. Left libertarians like David Boas and Tom Palmer are in the mood, while institutions like the left-funded, TDS-influenced, Kamala-supporting Institute for Modern Authoritarianism never get, And still haven't gotten it. Statism and intellectual elitism took a big hit in this election. Count the reasons, like this list posted on social media. This is economics….

from legal riots By skipping Davos, Trump is now leading other international leaders in a “quiet exit” from globalist environmental rules that only strangle their economies and harm their people. Posted by Leslie Eastman After President-elect Donald Trump's victory in November, I wrote that his transition team had prepared executive orders to withdraw the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement and open up Western lands to drilling and mining: (a) The Ambassador of the United States to the United Nations shall promptly submit formal written notification of the United States’ withdrawal from the Paris Agreement under the United Nations…
Ironically, the day after President Trump essentially rolled back U.S. climate policy, the coldest and most severe winter storm in more than 40 years descended on the country. When CNN regularly craves “the weather is climate change,” you know something is serious. A winter storm warning has been issued, stretching from the U.S.-Mexico border to Duval County, Florida. Know: Houston, Texas, can expect 3-5 inches of snow; New Orleans 2-5 inches; the western Florida Panhandle could see up to 3 inches of rain by Wednesday. Snow, strong winds and freezing temperatures were reported in the area. In one case posted…
