not many people know Paul Homewood I've been warning about this for a long time: The fleet news story mentioned is here. As the report points out, leasing companies have been coping successfully so far, as they are currently dealing with only a small number of end-of-lease vehicles — cars that were originally leased three years ago, when EV sales were much lower. These losses can easily be included in the profit on the resale of the petrol/diesel car. But soon they will be dealing with a greater number of electric cars, and a smaller number of profitable internal combustion…

From the Daily Skeptic by Tilak Doshi Donald Trump took office as the 47th President of the United States on Monday, January 20, promising to dramatically change the trajectory of U.S. energy policy pursued by the outgoing Biden administration and the previous two terms of President Obama. In a speech and question-and-answer session on January 7, the president-elect said climate alarmism and Biden's energy policies are “a huge hoax”; he will end U.S. participation in the United Nations' Paris Climate Agreement; he will repeal Biden cynically allows “pause” on rules on LNG export infrastructure development, purportedly to assess its impact…

From Cliff Mass Weather Blog cliff mass My team and scientists at the University at Albany are studying the meteorology of the Los Angeles wildfires earlier this month and have important early results. At last week's American Meteorological Society meeting, I attended a number of wildfire meteorology sessions and spoke with several colleagues who are actively studying such events. The Los Angeles fires are a widely discussed issue. We knew exactly what was happening: an extreme/unusual Santa Ana event associated with severe downslope winds. In this blog I'll show you some early simulations and explain why this happens. I will…

From Manhattan Contrarian Francis Menton We are now in the final hours of the Biden administration. Today, the Bidens complete four years of their terms. It is no secret that their top priority from the day they take office is to address what they call the “climate crisis” (sometimes the “profound climate crisis”). As we all know, after making generous promises to respond to and solve the crisis during the campaign, the newly elected President Biden issued a number of executive orders on this issue at the beginning of his term, the most famous of which was this order on…

The crushing defeat for Biden, Newsom, the LAFD and others can no longer be ignored Paul Driessen Wildfires near Los Angeles are making Pacific Palisades look like Dresden after World War II bombings. More than 12,000 homes, schools and businesses have been burned, dozens have died, at least 70,000 people have been left homeless, and the fires are still raging. AccuWeather estimates just two fires can cause $135-$150 in damage billion On property! It was a doubly terrible tragedy because most of the death and destruction could have been avoided. California has 33,000,000 acres of federal, state, and private forest…

The YMCA is back and worse than ever. President-elect Donald Trump helped revive the 1978 disco icon. However, some members of the media are not taking to the dance floor, and the field of “fixed science” is trying to overshadow the cultural climate of the 1970s. [emphasis, links added] Today's popular narrative about climate change, which suggests that the public and scientists in the 1970s were not that concerned about the global cooling of that decade, can be classified as disinformation, or at least misinformation. In the mid-1970s, I was an undergraduate meteorology major at Penn State University, and even…

Bottom line: Weak northeasterly winds are possible in mountainous areas, along with strong northerly winds. If you're camping, it's best to pack your gear and pup and be prepared for strong winds before dawn tomorrow, especially near El Sagento.Monday style recipes: The wind reservoir is almost empty, so there are only weak hot northeast winds blowing into our coastal valleys, strongest in the La Ventana to Rasta Beach area. But tomorrow the wind gods are preparing a feast! Tuesday's weather forecast: Tonight, a 1,400-mile-wide Canadian high pressure moves southward, centered on the U.S. 4 Corners region, creating a huge pressure…

Temperatures are expected to plummet into the single digits Monday night after a snowfall to start the week. [Get the latest weathercast from FOX45 News ] The weather will remain cold for most of the week. As happened earlier this month, this latest cold snap comes from disruptions in the polar vortex, the ring of cold air that normally traps the Arctic. Monday – Martin Luther King Jr. Day – will be sunny but cold and windy, with highs in the mid-20s and overnight lows around 7 degrees. Wind chills can make nighttime temperatures feel like minus five degrees. The cold affected…

from CFACT Author: Dugan Flanakin Back in February 2022, the Biden-Harris administration announced its Critical Minerals Strategy, pledging to “expand domestic production in a timely manner!” but only if “our actions meet community engagement standards,” which include “responsible of “Social, Environmental and Labor Standards.” This allegedly pro-mining stance is the Democratic response to a Commerce Department report prepared in response to President Trump’s 2017 Executive Order 13817, “Federal Strategy to Ensure the Safe and Reliable Supply of Critical Minerals.” The report reveals the extent of the United States' dependence on hostile foreign governments for minerals designated as “critical” by the…
