Temperatures surged in New England these past days, and demand for electricity did too. Note above that nuclear, natural gas, hydro and petroleum filled the bill, with wind and solar barely visible on this graph.
This, after billions have been invested in solar and offshore wind.

I’m currently fighting Glacier National Park against moving bull trout to Gunsight Lake, originally a ‘fishless’ lake, outside its current and historic range, allegedly to protect the threatened species from climate change.
This insanity is not new; see article above.

Displacing, as well as culling, wildlife have always been one of their favorite pastimes.

Managed relocation, also known as “assisted migration,” has emerged as a possible means of preserving species endangered by rapid climate change and other environmental threats.
I wonder how long it will take for humans to be included in this?

I’m sure they’ve already included humans a long time ago. It’s just that they haven’t formally admitted to it.

They already are if you include the celebrity and other fake deaths. Managend Relocation with a new identity.

Yet another example of the scam that is performative “environmentalism”, which, of course, has nothing to do with saving mother nature.
All the spending on “renewable” energy resources like solar, electric, and wind power are merely nothing more than money-laundering and racketeering. The financial aspect of it is nothing more than white-collar crime at work.

These examples also fit the criteria of “green-washing”, by which they falsely present their initiatives as “environmentally-friendly” when they’re anything but. Case in point, EVs.

So, how about that little crash and burn.. half expected, but still unexpected.
Despite all the clips played in conservative or alt media, just four months ago Biden gave a passable “SOTU” speech.. aside from coming off as yelling and angry at times. But still, given that, and overall trend lines, one could expect he would probably turn in a passable debate performance.
Nope. Dem meltdown, emergency ripcord mayday from one half of the party, delusion and denial from the other half. Oh joy, a jolly spectacle for those of us who see it as such, and the participants as getting what they deserve for investing in it.
That flip from SOTU to the debate, that steep decline, makes me think it HAS to be a planned fail. The actor playing Biden, or Biden playing himself, was told to take a fall, for this part of the script. Also that this was an unusually “early” debate suggests planned fail, so they can enact the drama of battling for him to drop out, and anointing his replacement (or failing to.)

I’ve been trying to copy and paste into this box and it won’t let me. I wrote a long comment, saved it offline, and vanished. Happened also yesterday. Word press is getting really annoying.
Anyhow I’ll try again with a different browser. It’s a very good website on water, its absorption spectrum, and structure. It is from “mainstream” sources yet says explicitly that water is 70% of the greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.

Water absorption spectrum (lsbu.ac.uk)
LikeLike
“Water is both the main absorber of the incoming sunlight in the atmosphere and the major greenhouse gas. Without atmospheric water, the Earth would be in a permanent ice age. The 13 trillion tons of water in the atmosphere (≈ 0.33% by weight; compare CO2 ≈ 0.04% ) is responsible for about 70% of all atmospheric absorption of radiation, mainly in the infrared region where water shows strong absorption. The average relative humidity k of the atmosphere [2474] is about 75% at ground level, reducing to about 45% at 5000 m. See also, water and global warming.”
Yes, interesting.. I remember Mark wrote recently about the volcano Hunga Tonga (sp?) releasing water vapor that raised global temps, and of course was ignored by carbon-doom promoters.
Much of that link is way too deep in the weeds for me though, or “above my pay grade,” so I’ll have to take their word for it..

If I can understand it, so too can you. Usually when a volcano erupts, it spews particulate matter into the atmosphere, and the effect is cooling. This happened in 1816 with the eruption of Tambora, and the result was the famous “year without a summer” as the planet cooled, crops failed, people starved. In the US there was widespread crop failure in the Northeast and more westerly states and territories, but many problems were averted due to food supplied by southern states.
Hunga Tonga–Hunga was a different animal, a volcano deep under the ocean that erupted opening a massive red-hot chasm. The ocean waters rushed back into the abyss, and there was a massive explosion releasing water into the atmosphere, mostly in the stratosphere. We live in the troposphere, and had the water been confined to that, it would have been gone in a week or a month. In the stratosphere, it takes longer, up to two years, for the waters to return to earth.
Consequently, we had an enormous amount of water vapor slowly releasing, and consequently, planetary warming, which, of course, the fake scientists of the climate alarmism movement blamed on climate change. I don’t think the words Hunga Tonga–Hunga ever passed their lying lips.

Yes, I can understand that, but you “put it down where the goats can get it”… as we say here in the South (or not. But we ought to.) That link would require me to don my waders (as the pseudonymous Lambert Strether of NakedCapitalism says)… and I might not make it back out for weeks, if at all

Thanks for looking through links, and I can endorse much of it is “real” science, like the spectroscopic data on water. If you dig through the links you will many fascinating studies on the structure and phase change behavior of wate. It’s why I went into physical chemistry, i find it really fascinating and it relies on mostly good models, empirical data, experience, and not much theory. I also work on building mid infrared analytical chemical devices now, which is very challenging and interesting work.
I read a very interesting book on Pasteur and what a shady unethical SOB he was. I will post the link and review sometime soon, very important study to solidify the fraudulence of germ theory and vaccination. It’s really horrible what Pasteur did in introducing huge and cruel animal testing studies as a standard for medical drug research, millions of animals are killed each year because of this, for no good reason.
