Gila Monsters Are Threatened by Development Not Warming, Science News

The Gila monster migration data presented by the study authors, although interesting, was unfortunately informed by flawed climate models and the extreme modelling scenarios they chose to use to forecast the species decline. In the process, they ignored the long history of the species and its evolution and survival across shifting climates, and downplayed other factors that directly threaten the lizard. Promoting the catastrophic climate change narrative is not going to help preserve the Gila monster’s habitat. Instead, it is likely to encour . . . [More]

Live at 1 p.m. ET: US Exiting the Climate Alarm Cabal — The Climate Realism Show #153

In news that has climate alarmists in an even greater panic, the Trump administration is ending funding for the U.S. Global Change Research Program, the panel that produced the federal government’s National Climate Assessment every four years. Several officials in the office have reportedly been fired, and Trump’s NASA has canceled the contract with the firm that coordinates the production of the National Climate Assessment. Defenders of the program say the report has been a “comprehensive look at climate change,” but has that ever been . . . [More]

Killing Constitution: Pipeline Politics Upstream of Inflation

President Donald Trump’s recent meeting with New York Governor Kathy Hochul has reignited discussion about the Constitution Pipeline. A longtime proponent of the project, Trump sees it as part of his broader push for American Energy Dominance. However, the meeting did not yield an agreement to revive the project.Re Posted From: Killing Constitution: Pipeline Politics Upstream of InflationWatts Up With That . . . [More]

Star of Coconut Fish Curry Thrives in Modern Climate

Contrary to the media drumbeat of apocalypse, I found that fishes are highly resilient and facing no crisis from climatic variations. In its 2024 report on “The State of World Fisheries and Agriculture,” the United Nation’s Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) states that “fisheries and aquaculture production reached an all-time high of 223.2 million metric tons (in 2022), worth a record $472 billion.”Re Posted From: Star of Coconut Fish Curry Thrives in Modern ClimateWatts Up With That . . .

False, Axios, Atlanta’s Rainfall Increase Isn’t Attributable to Climate Change

Climate Central continues to push a simplistic narrative that ignores fundamental atmospheric physics, misuses regional data, and omits well-established meteorological processes like UHI and aerosol-induced rainfall. Until outlets like Axios start exercising at least a minimal amount of journalistic investigative curiosity, and scrutinize claims made by climate activists that humans are causing changes to the weather, they’re complicit in spreading misinformation, misleading the public concerning the causes and consequences of climate change. . . .
