"We saw a strong and consistent pattern that the salmon are returning to the rivers younger than they did historically," Eric Palkovacs, a professor at UC Santa Cruz and a corresponding author of the study, said in a news release...\

"We know that climate drives changes in ocean productivity, and we see a consistent signal of climate factors associated with decreasing salmon size," Palkovacs said.

Climate activist Mark Hertsgaard: "With the Democratic and the Republican conventions unfolding this week and next, it’s high time for news coverage to catch up with science and make the 'climate emergency' a leading topic in the national political conversation."

Former Rep. John J. Duncan, Jr.: "In the 1957-58 flu season, when I was 10 years old, the world was hit by another pandemic which also originated in China. It was called the Asian Flu, and 1.1 million died from it, with 116,000 of those deaths being in the U.S. That would be the equivalent of 220,000 U.S. deaths now due to or much higher current population. Nothing was shut down then. No mayors or governors were holding daily Asian Flu news conferences. There were not constant, 24-hour news reports about the numbers dying or testing positive."

Morano: "On behalf of climate skeptics everywhere, I would like to formally apologize for warning that ‘climate change’ was the biggest threat to our liberty over the last 30 years. Climate change ‘solutions’ are a big threat. It’s just not the biggest in the world.
Viral fear inspired lockdowns are the biggest threat.”

"I didn't see this coming. Public health, the unelected bureaucracy has stepped in and made th UN climate agenda look like an amateur or a farm league when it comes to expanding power and control and instilling fear."

Brian C. Joondeph, M.D., is a Denver-based physician: "Both the climate and COVID movements share these features – hypocrisy and hysteria, models and money, fear and false prophets, and inevitability. This is also how dictatorships begin."

"Six months of lockdowns, mandates, and restrictions previously unfathomable in a free society"

"One can see numerous parallels between COVID and climate policy. Both create fear, to a frenzy level, of the world ending, massive death and destruction, all due to a warming planet or an aggressive flu virus. If we don’t wear a mask, we are murderers and should be imprisoned. If we don’t believe in man-made global warming, we should also be locked away in jail...Question the dogma of either the virus or climate movement and prepare to have your life, if not disrupted, then ruined. There is only one politically correct viewpoint on both issues."

"Both global warming and the Wuhan flu rely on models. Many climate models predicted rising sea levels and flooded cities, along with catastrophic storms, none of which has materialized. Virus models predicted 2.2 million U.S. deaths, only to be scaled down as reality was nowhere close to the predictions. Both relied on flawed models and failed to adjust their prognostications accordingly. ..."

"Climate and COVID share the commonality of government control. From electric car and fuel efficiency mandates to the entire economy busting Green New Deal, the “benevolent” government seeks to control all aspects of our lives."

James Taylor: California crop production is so strong that farmers are complaining that high yields are depressing crop prices. Among the top results today for a Google News search of “climate change” is an article in the Bakersfield Californian titled, “Climate change report forecasts hard times for Kern ag.” The article addresses a newly published report produced by a climate change activist group in conjunction with California state officials. The report claims climate change is setting up harmful conditions for California agricultural production.
