Everyone blaming turbulence on climate

Based on research showing that wind speeds over the North Atlantic increased last few decades

But a recent reanalysis showed that these results now ceased to be “statistically significant”

Europe is handing out €40 billion for climate projects

Bruxelles is unsurprisingly filling up with lobbyists

One company made €659,000,000 for less than €400,000 in lobby costs — nice job, if you can get it

Half the world now believe that humanity will go extinct from climate change
The reality? The UN expects the average person by 2100 to earn 450% of today’s income. Climate will reduce that to 434%. Problem, not end-of-world

For some reason, the media, climate activists, and politicians on the left want you to be afraid of flying. 🛩

Instead of reassuring the public, at every turn, the narrative is to ramp up irrational fear and anxiety.

Very positive weather/climate story for this Spring 2024 so far --> very little drought ✅

Only 3% of the Lower 48 in D2 (Severe Drought) and a miniscule 0.1% in D4 (Exceptional Drought)

California is 99.9% blank. Growing regions look fine.

Harvard University recently shut down a key geoengineering research project because of intense lobbying, despite the college’s aspiration to become “a global beacon on climate change.'
