For example, watch this short video of Bill Gates in 2019. Alex Epstein posted his conversation with Fox News Will Cain: Why Bill Gates is […]
The World Bank and other Western institutions retreat from fossil fuel finance has created a significant geopolitical opportunity for China. China is willing to finance fossil fuel projects in Africa and the developing world and reap the strategic benefit of control of energy infrastructure in many countries.
Poor and developing nations need to band together, finance their own energy infrastructure, development, health and prosperity – and tell the carbon colonialists to take a hike.

By Paul Homewood I was reminded last week in a conversation with a GB News Editor about just how little understanding there is in the MSM of just how much Net Zero could end up costing the country. To some extent this ignorance has been deliberately engineered. The original Climate Change Act in 2008 […]

A new study from the University of Alabama in Huntsville addresses the question of how much the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect is responsible for the higher temperatures at weather stations across the world. Dr. Roy Spencer and Dr. John Christy have spent several years developing a novel method that quantifies, for the first time, the average UHI warming effects related to population density. Their finding: no less than 65% of “runaway global warming” is not caused by our emissions of carbon dioxide, but by the urbanization of the world.
