Ep 859Heatwave Horse Hockey – The Climate Realism Show #196

According to the legacy media, the first early heatwave of the year in the West would be “virtually impossible without human-induced climate change.” That is bunk based on junk science, and is not even unprecedented, as we will explain on Episode #195 of The Climate Realism Show.The Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Sterling Burnett, Jim Lakely, and special guest Chris Martz will reveal the truth about this heatwave and also cover other Crazy Climate News of the Week, including using carbon capture to carbonate beer, and how we should not be worried about climate change slowing the rotation of the earth.

Ep 858Space Mirrors to Save Solar Power? | The Climate Realism Show #194

It sounds like something a Bond villain would think up. A startup wants to put giant mirrors into space to reflect sunlight back toward the Earth at night. Why would someone want to do this? To disturb the sleep of everyone on the “dark side” of the planet? No, but that would happen. To help plants grow faster and feed more people? Nope. It’s to keep giant solar power installations going after the sun goes down. This is a stupid, harmful idea, and we will explain why.Join The Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, and special guest David Legates, Ph.D., who will be speaking at our climate conference next month. We will also cover other crazy climate news of the week, including how climate change is supposedly killing penguins while also making them thrive, how a huge field of solar panels in Indiana lost a fight with a tornado, and how a new independent temperature station in Reno proves that the world isn’t really as warm as alarmists say.

Ep 857Climate Paper Tigers – The Climate Realism Show #193

The Climate Panic Industrial Complex has had complete control over the media narrative and public policy for more than two decades. Then Donald Trump returned to the White House and quickly set about canceling the entire agenda—and he’s still not done. And the climate alarmists are confused. Where is the pushback?The UK Guardian, a leader in promoting the alarmist narrative, laments that all the billionaires and their political allies have hardly pushed back. For that matter, where are the street protests? Where’s Greta? Is it possible that the Climate Panic Industrial Complex was a paper tiger all along?Join The Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, H. Sterling Burnett, and special guest Kevin Mooney for this week's episode of The Climate Realism Show.We’ll also talk about Mooney’s new book, “Climate P0rn: How and Why Anti-Population Zealots Fabricate Science, while Targeting American Capitalism, Freedom, and Independence.” In The Tank broadcasts LIVE every Thursday at 12pm CT on on The Heartland Institute YouTube channel.
