‘Climate change’ isn’t taking food off your table

By BJORN LOMBORG, National Post, July 23, 2026

Summary: Climate change is not threatening everyday staples like coffee and olive oil, nor is it causing supply shortages and price increases. In fact, warming is increasing planetary greening and helping feed eight billion people.

These days, no morning ritual is safe from climate alarm. The journal Nature has just declared that coffee is “critically threatened by climate change” and described . scientists racing to save your espresso from “extinction.” … Read more

Elbows up: Canada’s destructive economic path

By Cornelis Van Kooten, Climate Realists of B.C., July 2026

Summary: Canada’s climate goals, including a national clean-energy grid and zero-polluting homes while excessive regulation strangles resource extraction and export, are economically unsustainable. Without resource exports, including fossil fuels, the country must rely on imports for goods and services, leading to inflation and increasing poverty. Furthermore, the focus on renewable energy sources like solar and wind is impractical.… Read more

‘No business case’ for LNG? Justin Trudeau’s poor judgment costing Canada dearly

Scarcity of LNG due to Ukraine and Iran wars means many nations are hungry for our natural gas—if only we could supply it

By Geoff Russ, Energy Now Media, March 24, 2026

International Peace Charter solves the all world’s problems with the stroke of a pen!

By John Robson, Climate Nonsense, June 7, 2026

As we’ve noted, climate alarmism is in trouble on two key fronts. First, the supposedly solid science behind the panic is collapsing, and second, the supposedly easy policies to bring about a green energy transition are turning out not to work. … Read more

Trump post creates ‘psychiatric moment’ for media and its biased climate reporting

UN panel retires ‘bad news’ but unrealistic RCP8.5 scenario that media took as IPCC gospel to create unnecessary climate fears

By Holman W. Jenkins, Jr., Wall Street Journal, May 30, 2026

Many Americans still think the key question in climate politics is a human effect on climate, yea or nay, believer vs. denier.

No. For 40 years, the only interesting questions have been how and how much are we influencing the climate, and the cost and benefit of proposed actions—questions that can’t be answered by shouting yea or nay about a human role in climate change.… Read more

IPCC’s own model shows that carbon taxes won’t affect warming—but they will make us much poorer

MAGICC calculator reveals that cuts in carbon emissions will reduce ‘warming’ by a fraction of a degree Celsius, while globally costing trillions of dollars.

By Paul MacRae, Climate Realists of B.C., May 26, 2026

Summary

The IPCC’s MAGICC model shows that even with a 100% reduction in carbon emissions by developed nations, global warming would only be reduced by a minuscule 0.13°C by 2050. This tiny reduction comes at a staggering cost, with a McKinsey study estimating US$275 trillion globally by 2050. Instead of focusing on carbon taxes, we should be using our fossil-fuel wealth to develop adaptation strategies and gradually, over several decades, transition to other energy sources.

Flinging economies about: Carney’s trendy abstractions detached from reality

Canada’s ‘new’ electrical strategy—to double capacity while reducing reliance on fossil fuels at a cost of $ trillion—is unaffordable and unrealistic to the point of insanity. But PM’s grandiose theorizing makes it sound good!

By John Robson, Climate Nonsense, May 23, 2026

A certain kind of grandiose geopolitical theorizing has been derided as “flinging continents about” by those who emphasize the intractability of significant obstacles in the real world. … Read more

Latest climate scare: Warmth and CO2 will kill the plants!

At what previous point in Earth’s history did a gentle increase in temperature and atmospheric CO2 convert lush valleys into deserts? If you can’t name one, you’re making it up

By John Robson, Climate Nonsense, May 17

This just in: warmth and CO2 kill plants. No, wait. Not just in. Repeated constantly despite being foolish, along with polar bear extinction, vanishing tropical islands and so forth, with that tiresome veneer of “Scientists say”. … Read more
