Morano Interview rough automated transcript:
00:04
your new book is called the end of the
00:08
world now can you tell us when it’s
00:10
going to be or do we have to buy the
00:12
book
00:13
well I predict that the world will end
00:15
at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s
00:17
Eve just devil’s advocate I mean
00:20
shouldn’t you have said hey better yet
00:25
this is not just some money-making
00:27
scheme alright
00:28
I have a strong psychic belief that the
00:36
world will end on New Year’s Eve well
00:46
for your sake I hope you’re right
00:48
okay but I think my other guests may
00:50
disagree with you Jillian
00:53
now you had another date in mind
00:56
according to my source the end of the
00:59
world will be on February 14th in the
01:01
year 2016
01:04
Valentine’s Day bummer
01:08
where’d you get your date Elaine I
01:11
received this information from an alien
01:17
welcome true seekers I’m so excited to
01:19
have you before I introduce my guests I
01:21
want to just throw something at you in
01:23
2017 Princeton professor emeritus of
01:25
physics William hopper drew parallels to
01:27
today’s man-made climate change claims
01:29
quote I don’t see a whole lot of
01:30
difference between the consensus on
01:32
climate change and the consensus on
01:33
witches at the witch trials in Salem the
01:35
judges were educated at Harvard this was
01:37
supposedly 100% science and the one or
01:40
two people who said there were no
01:41
witches were immediately hung not much
01:43
has changed since I can guarantee that
01:46
if it been the witch trials one of the
01:47
people they were hung immediately is my
01:48
next guest dr. Marc Morano he’s the
01:51
founding editor of the award-winning
01:52
website climate depot calm a project of
01:55
the committee for constructive tomorrow
01:56
and the co-author and star over the film
01:57
climate hustle which you can see behind
01:59
him as well as his most recent an
02:01
excellent book politically incorrect
02:04
guide to climate change mr. Morano
02:07
welcome to the show honored to have you
02:08
how are you thank you very much by the
02:11
way I’m not a doctor I’m actually just a
02:12
bachelor’s in political science which I
02:14
always say is the perfect background to
02:16
study global war
02:18
I’m not a scientist but I play one on TV
02:20
and I have a lot of fun I come at this
02:22
as an investigative journalist that’s
02:24
how I approach the issue yeah I didn’t
02:26
realize when I read it that you’ve been
02:27
there done that I mean you literally
02:28
I’ve told that story because you’ve been
02:30
there since the beginning you go to all
02:31
the big meetings all around the world
02:33
you’ve interviewed Al Gore you’ve
02:35
debated what was it you actually got
02:37
cancelled on a debate with James Cameron
02:39
because I think the quote was you just
02:41
weren’t up to his level in society did I
02:43
get that right he challenged me to a
02:44
debate we set it up we had it all set at
02:47
an environmental conference in Colorado
02:49
everything was all set I flew to
02:51
Colorado when my plane landed he had
02:53
pulled the rug out from under me it was
02:54
gonna be Andrew Breitbart and and Mac
02:57
Albania Irish a filmmaker we were all
02:59
three set to debate camera and he
03:02
canceled at the last minute so I said
03:04
instead of being king of the world
03:06
heater he was chicken of the sea like
03:09
the tuna can because he backed out at
03:10
the last minute he was told it wasn’t a
03:12
good thing for him so then he said that
03:13
I wasn’t at his level and there’s a lot
03:16
of stuff my James Cameron in the book
03:17
he’s one of these Hollywood types who
03:18
runs to bel-air mansions next to each
03:20
other he flies around he owned a
03:23
submarine but yet he flies the poor
03:24
developed world developing world
03:26
countries and stops major energy
03:27
projects in the name of saving the
03:29
planet so he can pat himself on the back
03:31
and then he flies back to his lavish
03:33
lifestyle while he keeps the poor in
03:35
places like South America and
03:37
back-breaking poverty it is amazing I
03:39
didn’t know the things that you wrote
03:40
about James Cameron and before I go on
03:42
with this when I read the book it seems
03:44
like you’re really having a good time it
03:46
just I would think it was a pretty
03:48
lonely world that you live in where
03:50
you’re kind of one of the only guys
03:51
screaming at these giant conferences the
03:53
bridge is out the world is not flat but
03:55
you seem like you’re really enjoying it
03:56
when is it because you’re a good writer
03:58
or do you really a relish what you do I
04:03
looked at everything Al Gore did and I
04:05
it was a student of Al Gore in the sense
04:08
of like wow this is impressive the
04:09
former vice president I took everything
04:11
he did I and I took the opposite from it
04:13
I tried to make myself entertaining fun
04:15
humorous and I hope the movie and the
04:18
book the book I really tried to do tons
04:20
of little breakout boxes all the silly
04:22
wacky stuff you can find out our global
04:24
warming created Hitler how
04:26
worming saved Hitler you can find out
04:28
how global warming is causing
04:29
prostitution barroom brawls you might
04:31
think when you die you’re done with the
04:32
climate debate this book will tell you
04:35
that even after you’re dead global
04:37
warming can still the long arm reaches
04:39
up and grabs you mummies are being
04:41
decaying faster allegedly due to global
04:44
warming and dead bodies are falling in
04:47
the permafrost allegedly and releasing
04:49
new bacteria or old bacteria into our
04:52
newer times so even the dead aren’t safe
04:54
from global warming I try to instill all
04:56
that in there because otherwise it’s a
04:58
boring issue for people I’m trying to
05:00
make this fun and it really is a fun
05:02
issue this is the most in many ways
05:04
insane issue that they people have
05:06
attached themselves to and they blame
05:07
everything and anything unglued warming
05:10
no well that’s why when I put this up
05:11
I’m thinking there’s a lot of people who
05:12
read this and go I don’t care like
05:13
tinder swipe they just climate change is
05:16
not that big of an issue as you
05:17
illustrate in your book people don’t
05:19
care nearly as much as the James
05:20
Cameron’s of the world want them to and
05:21
and as I read through it I think you
05:24
know what what about what’s going on
05:25
right now I just read this article today
05:27
about all these kids who have been
05:28
mobilized across the country to debate
05:30
on gun control and I can’t remember the
05:31
name the gal who ran the education labor
05:34
board who spent thousands of hours in
05:36
the White House and I thought I wonder
05:38
if she was there to help the kids with
05:39
reading math and arithmetic or maybe if
05:41
it was because the I caused is your
05:44
whether its climate change or gun
05:45
control if they can organize and mobile
05:47
those mobilize those kids on a moment’s
05:49
notice and then I get into your chapter
05:50
xvii on child propaganda and it makes it
05:52
a seed to think about what these kids
05:55
are being inculcated and doctrine aided
05:56
with intentionally and how much their
05:58
parents actually know about this how
05:59
much choice the educators have been
06:01
foisting these things on them because
06:03
like the scientists you mentioned they
06:04
have to feed their kids too right kid
06:09
indoctrination in this book for a simple
06:11
reason it’s the future and we’re
06:14
actually finding we have a group that
06:15
deals with collegiates a part of my
06:18
climate Depot website it’s called
06:19
collegiates for a constructive tomorrow
06:21
in just the last five years the kids
06:23
that are coming through college now even
06:25
libertarian conservative kids are buying
06:28
this hook line and sinker about the
06:30
climate debate because it’s an old
06:32
method and I actually quoted Hollywood
06:34
so let me lean on her DiCaprio says you
06:36
got to get kids young
06:37
Al Gore’s producer Laurie David says we
06:39
want you to grow up to be activist and
06:41
you know what it’s working from
06:43
kindergarten through college
06:44
kids are indoctrinated that the earth is
06:47
in crisis man is causing it man is evil
06:50
man is a destructive force man is
06:52
nothing but bad the earth is not going
06:54
to survive that their future is in doubt
06:56
we an idea than here the reports from
06:59
psychologists that 9 year olds are
07:01
getting you know climate anxiety and
07:03
being and all these kinds of issues we
07:05
have high school kids who’ve seen Al
07:06
Gore’s film four different times in four
07:09
different classes this is the extent to
07:12
which this is dripping into their pores
07:14
and they grew up on a generation that
07:17
grew up on Bill Nye from the 90s and the
07:19
OS watching his science reports and he’s
07:21
one of the biggest voices in this issue
07:23
as well so when you look and I detail
07:26
how the weather channel has
07:28
indoctrinating kids how Al Gore’s sequel
07:30
used kids how Hollywood how pop culture
07:33
the education system I detail in the
07:35
book about common core and how one of
07:38
the key tenets of this common core
07:39
that’s going across public schools
07:40
everywhere they will not say that
07:43
there’s any debate or dissent 97% of
07:46
scientists allegedly agree this is what
07:47
kids are being told and they’re
07:49
essentially being told that anyone who
07:51
disagrees is equivalent to a Holocaust
07:53
denier a dark deep conspiracy theorist
07:56
and actually the book goes into detail
07:58
about that how the scientists who
07:59
disagree are smeared yeah it’s I the 97%
08:03
one drives me crazy but I thought it was
08:05
interesting I had read in your book you
08:06
talk about how many scientists in the
08:08
industry took that on face value and
08:10
said well if they’ve got studies and
08:11
reports I’m not gonna look into them I
08:13
just I believe it I mean they’re
08:14
scientists they’re just like me they’re
08:15
not gonna lie about their work and then
08:17
you detail the names and and Mikkel
08:18
Henning who you mentioned from the James
08:19
Cameron debate is the one that I heard
08:21
online say show us the list right if
08:23
I’ve got a playlist of 9,000 scientists
08:26
or 12,000 we’ll see their names we’ll
08:27
see who they are what they study about
08:30
that they can’t one of the 97% claims is
08:34
based on not 97 scientists even or 87
08:38
scientists it’s only based on 77
08:40
scientists okay who are these 77
08:43
scientists we don’t know they’re
08:44
anonymous
08:45
we don’t know their affiliation we don’t
08:47
know who they are because they got a
08:48
study of over
08:49
thousand scientists and they tortured
08:51
the data to get down to 77 with a couple
08:54
questions and they came up with a 97% of
08:57
claim also a UN scientists a detail in
09:00
the book a lead author reviewed another
09:02
97% claim and he said it was quite
09:05
literally pulled from thin air that no
09:07
data in the study supported it this is
09:10
what they’re basing their 97% of
09:12
scientists on I think it’s worth
09:13
discussing since a lot of people might
09:15
not know that particular survey where
09:17
the 97% number came out of you mentioned
09:19
the two questions that these scientists
09:20
were asked number one yes when compared
09:22
with pre eighteen hundred’s levels do
09:23
you think that mean global temperatures
09:25
have generally risen fallen or remained
09:27
relatively constant number two do you
09:29
think human activity is a significant
09:31
contributing factor in changing mean
09:33
global temperatures you astutely point
09:35
out that co2 not mentioned anywhere in
09:38
this survey yet it’s the crux of the
09:39
sentence that’s what’s incredible I
09:41
actually and yet the testimony of
09:43
skeptical scientists featured in the
09:45
book who say they’re part of the 97% if
09:47
you’re going to define it as that in
09:49
other words is that is the temperature
09:51
warm yes and by the way the temperatures
09:53
warm since 1850 the Little Ice Age
09:55
that’s also the time that most
09:56
thermometer records at least in the
09:58
United States came on board so almost
10:00
all cities show a warming shock of shock
10:03
well we had New York Harbor frozen over
10:05
back then we had what’s called the
10:06
Little Ice Age so yes we have warm but
10:09
if you look at it since the 1930s we
10:11
probably cooled the 1930s still have the
10:13
highest heat wave numbers according to
10:15
EPA by any decade but without a doubt if
10:18
you go since the Medieval Warm Period
10:19
about 900 to 1300 ad we are definitely
10:22
either stayed stable or cooled if you go
10:25
from the Roman warming period we’ve cold
10:27
so it’s all on timelines one of the
10:29
tricks that the global activists like to
10:31
do the climate actors they’ll pick 1970
10:33
as a baseline well gee why 1970 1970 was
10:37
the height of the global cooling scare
10:39
so they picked the coldest period of the
10:41
recent thermometer record and then they
10:43
say 11 how much warming we’ve had in the
10:45
last three or four decades if this
10:46
continues it’s like getting your kid at
10:48
a growth spurt and saying okay he grew
10:50
this much from age seven to nine if this
10:52
growth rate we’re to continue Hobie
10:54
forty feet high it doesn’t work that way
10:56
climate is cyclical and I point that out
10:58
in the book that’s hilarious
11:00
I think the challenge here in the short
11:01
time that we have is going to be
11:02
covering some of the
11:03
beautiful chapters in here and they’re
11:05
just the last five alone really hit me
11:07
pretty hard you’ve got climbing on the
11:09
climate change gravy chain the ever
11:11
receding tipping point hypocrisy on
11:12
parade bypassing democracy to impose
11:15
green energy I want to touch on each of
11:16
these a little bit but the first chapter
11:18
opens up with climate change deja vu and
11:20
I think if I’m a young kid I’m in school
11:22
this is the one I would definitely want
11:23
to read because they don’t have any
11:24
sense of historical perspective right
11:26
they don’t realize that you’ve got a
11:28
great trolling person here from Thomas
11:30
Jefferson in the 1700s talking about how
11:32
the weather was so extreme he’d never
11:34
seen anything like this before
11:35
and you don’t use the punchline til the
11:36
end that that wasn’t Leo DiCaprio or
11:38
James Cameron it was Thomas Jefferson
11:39
writing about his beloved state of
11:41
Virginia so throw these out you and you
11:43
can come back at me here you’ve got Tom
11:45
Brokaw Peter Jennings John you can tie
11:48
your boat to the Washington Monument
11:49
Holdren yes you’ve got every major
11:51
climate organization endorsing the ice
11:52
age scare and now they’ve completely
11:54
flipped I mean we’re talking about the
11:55
NCAA are the sea are you NASA the CIA
11:57
even got in on this and and then you
12:00
talk about people like James Hansen and
12:02
mr. Schmidt of NASA kind of help us
12:05
understand how long this has been going
12:07
on and how hilarious it is that they’ve
12:09
flipped the narrative from global
12:10
cooling to global climate change I go
12:13
back to the 19th century the Aborigines
12:15
in Australia blame the changing climate
12:18
and weather on the introduction of the
12:20
white man this is how there’s always
12:22
been this superstition that aha this is
12:24
cuz this is the cause and then I linked
12:26
that by the way to modern-day a climate
12:28
actors named Bill McKibben who blames
12:29
white America and climate denial for
12:32
causing all these extreme storms because
12:34
we didn’t act sooner to fight them so
12:36
we’re literally the same as
12:37
superstitious Aborigines in nineteen
12:40
there’s about 1832 or so 1830s as we are
12:43
climate activists today so the 1970s
12:46
what’s so fascinating about it is
12:47
they’re blaming the Arctic now the
12:49
plunging Arctic air right now on global
12:52
warming the change of the jet stream
12:55
they’re saying that’s caused by global
12:56
warming they blame the same thing in the
12:57
1970s on global cooling floods droughts
13:00
hurricanes tornadoes these were these
13:03
extreme weather events were not then
13:05
blamed on global cooling in the 1970s
13:07
and I go through with chapter and verse
13:09
I have a over a thousand footnotes I
13:11
believe there was about 1200 footnotes
13:13
we had to cut a couple chapters we have
13:15
some bonus chapters online
13:17
I go through in the 1970s in detail that
13:19
all the same things they’re claiming
13:20
today were blamed on global cooling in
13:23
the 1970s including national security
13:26
war threats you know instability these
13:28
were caused by global cooling in the
13:30
1970s yeah so I had some footnotes of my
13:33
own I wrote in your book and I actually
13:34
refer to him as The Bachelor method and
13:36
the reason is I’ve had some friends go
13:37
on the show The Bachelor hopefully
13:39
you’ve never seen this show before you
13:40
have to admit I actually watched that
13:42
back leg in 2005 or something the first
13:44
couple seasons I wrote one friend who
13:46
went all the way to the final two so we
13:48
kind of got hooked
13:48
but if psychologically it’s hilarious to
13:51
me because every yet show and they’ve
13:52
actually it’s become a parody of itself
13:53
now they joke about it but it’s always
13:55
this is the greatest season we’ve ever
13:57
seen we’re gonna see more action more
13:58
drama more suspense than you’ve ever
14:00
experienced before and I’m like I see
14:02
that in the climate change your writing
14:04
your book and every single quote is how
14:05
do we outdo the last guy how do we make
14:07
the prediction that much more dire how
14:09
do we move the time zone up a little bit
14:10
so people are more freaked out than they
14:12
were last time we said this and then
14:13
yesterday punk every single one of them
14:15
bachelor method I detail what happened
14:17
in 1988 was the United Nations started
14:20
this climate panel so yeah and funding
14:21
organization you had an organization who
14:23
if they fail define carbon dioxide was
14:26
causing a global climate crisis they
14:27
failed to have a reason to exist what
14:29
are the odds a UN bureaucratic
14:31
Department was going to find used
14:33
science and find a reason not to exist
14:35
it was never going to happen so they
14:37
institutionalized climate change from
14:39
1988 on and every year as you say became
14:42
the most dramatic rose ceremony ever
14:44
and this is what they do every report I
14:47
detail in here where UN scientists
14:49
predict years in advance way to the next
14:52
report comes out it’ll be so dramatic
14:54
the world will have to act now what kind
14:57
of science is that that’s like Babe Ruth
14:58
picking where he’s going to hit the
14:59
baseball they can’t predict the science
15:02
report before it’s even written well
15:03
they can because I call it predetermined
15:06
science this is what they do and they
15:09
try to learn everyone in with the
15:11
tipping points with this is our last
15:13
chance this is all the same kind of
15:15
bachelor techniques if you will to
15:17
create that drama intention at every UN
15:20
climate summit and every new UN report
15:22
which come out about every four or five
15:24
years before every one from this I think
15:26
it’s worthwhile to talk about James
15:28
Hansen from NASA and mentioned
15:30
one of his predictions was that let me
15:33
figure out what I wrote here no need to
15:35
worry about carbon dioxide the other one
15:39
all right let me get the prediction
15:41
fossil fuels being burned but screen out
15:43
so much sunlight that the average
15:44
temperature could drop by six degrees
15:46
and 50 years which means the new ice age
15:49
would start in 2021 which means we’re
15:51
pretty close to freezing to death based
15:53
on his production six degree temperature
15:54
increase and he also talked about
15:55
volcanic ash and carbon dioxide soot
15:58
helping to melt the ice caps I mean
16:01
that’s crazy talk but he’s still he’s
16:03
still revered as one of the pioneers yes
16:07
Stephen Schneider these are the same
16:09
scientists who later flipped themselves
16:12
now there’s actually interestingly about
16:13
the late 1970s I detail in great detail
16:16
in the book the New York Times is having
16:19
a debate between meteorologists and
16:21
climatologists who were someone
16:23
predicting global cooling some are
16:24
predicting global warming and it was
16:25
actually the New York Times doing pretty
16:27
good journalism it was balanced it was
16:29
fair but this all got lost in the whole
16:33
shuffle because you realize whether they
16:35
were predicting global cooling weather
16:36
if the environmental scare was an
16:39
overpopulation resource scarcity even
16:42
the Amazon rainforest which I had done a
16:43
documentary back in 2000 on the solution
16:46
was always the same so in the book
16:47
you’ll actually see like this different
16:50
environmental scare same solution and
16:51
the solutions are the same regardless of
16:53
whatever that you cannot is the
16:55
environmental crisis of the day is its
16:57
global governance central planning
16:58
wealth redistribution that’s the basic
17:00
three solutions they always come up with
17:02
and you can bet your bottom dollar when
17:04
when global warming fades as a
17:06
scientific issue the next environmental
17:09
scare will have those same solutions you
17:11
know a global governance wealth
17:13
redistribution and central planning this
17:17
is what they do you realize it’s not
17:20
about science and you realize that when
17:22
you go back and you see some of the same
17:24
names like Stephen Schneider was a huge
17:26
global cooling advocate and then he
17:28
became a global warming you know fear
17:30
monger and this is what in the book I
17:32
detail how the global cooling scare
17:34
evolved and how again everything that
17:37
was blamed on global cooling is now
17:39
blamed on global warming they just they
17:40
can pivot without it without a break
17:42
they can do it on a
17:44
diamon it’s amazing to watch yeah this
17:45
is a great resource for people who want
17:47
to have this at their fingertips it’s
17:49
221 it’s actually says last chance is
17:51
we’re about The Bachelor but it’s last
17:53
chance for a lot of climate love and you
17:55
go through all the different predictions
17:56
and dire warnings of the end of the
17:58
world ISM and it’s funny you make some
18:00
references to religion I ought to find
18:02
the quote in here but you talked about
18:03
how some of the people who have been in
18:05
charge of important departments like I’m
18:07
gonna say this wrong Rajendra Pachauri
18:09
former head of the ipcc panel actually
18:11
said that climate change is his religion
18:14
and you make all these great references
18:15
to how religious spiritual and they
18:19
spiritual religious the the dogma is but
18:22
also how they hate religious people they
18:25
hate Christians and their and their
18:27
biggest critique is where’s the science
18:29
where’s the reason where’s the logic and
18:30
you point out flawlessly that it’s not
18:32
on their side when it comes to their
18:34
religion it’s not he actually said
18:38
global warming is my religion it’s my
18:40
Dharma this is the head of the UN
18:43
science panel making this claim nice a
18:45
science panel I should put quotes up
18:47
right this panel is a literally a
18:49
political body masquerading as a science
18:51
group and its head of it treats the the
18:54
topic of science that he’s dealing with
18:55
climate science as a religious issue
18:58
this is where you know it’s off the
19:00
rails so to speak and if you if you look
19:03
at the way the UN’s put together a
19:04
detailed book line-by-line of their
19:07
reports has to be signed off on by UN
19:09
delegates bureaucrats and politicians
19:11
that is not the way science is done not
19:14
only do they predetermine what the
19:15
reports are going to say well once they
19:17
write them they go through and they
19:19
change them all again it’s all like a
19:21
political campaign they come up with a
19:23
narrative and they try to do it they try
19:25
to keep on that narrative and anything
19:27
who dissents they’ll threaten journal
19:29
editors if they publish studies that
19:30
don’t match they threaten scientists
19:32
they ruin careers all to keep the
19:35
narrative the same and this is a deeply
19:38
held religious belief for many of these
19:40
this is their number one religion and
19:42
Michael Crichton said the number one you
19:44
know the religion of modern atheists
19:47
today is climate change
19:48
yeah environmentalism in its yeah
19:50
there’s there’s Armageddon in their
19:51
salvation and those themes are
19:53
ever-present yes before I would just
19:55
want to touch on chapter two with the
19:56
consensus because there’s
19:58
another like The Bachelor method there’s
19:59
so much cultural agitprop here the other
20:02
one I like is the Jimmy Kimmel rule
20:04
which got invoked on you by University
20:06
College of London professor Mark Maslin
20:08
during your contentious live televised
20:09
global warming debate in Copenhagen in
20:11
2009 when you criticized him for using
20:14
than a figure of five thousand
20:15
scientists that have consensus going to
20:18
why he invoked the Jimmy Kimmel rule on
20:19
you which I think heads up I’m talking
20:23
about how the smartest beautiful and the
20:24
most capable people know the answers and
20:26
you need to fall in line yes he said
20:29
that only intelligent people all
20:32
intelligent people know that the UN
20:34
climate science is correct and this was
20:36
his way and he’s and he cited behind all
20:38
of these numbers this was Mark Maslin a
20:41
scientist to the who’s never questioned
20:44
in the media this was a rare public
20:45
debate so I had a lot of fun with him I
20:47
called him out on his claims and I was I
20:49
was pretty brutal with him but this man
20:51
was just making wild claims and one of
20:54
the reasons they can say all these 5000
20:56
97% is because then people don’t have to
20:58
think I liken it to the old dentine gum
21:01
or they sugar-free gum four out of five
21:03
dentists recommend this was like why why
21:05
would you be a dental denier of course
21:07
you’re gonna buy the gun that the
21:08
dentists recommend this is what they do
21:10
so you don’t have to think about the
21:11
issue yourself you have a couple quick
21:13
talking points all scientists agree the
21:15
97% the earth is the hottest it’s ever
21:18
been of course global warming is real
21:19
and this guy this scientist Mark Madison
21:22
went on live TV in a UK debate during
21:24
the Copenhagen summit with me and tried
21:26
out all of his usual just quick zinger
21:28
dings and I had a lot of fun deflating
21:31
them I don’t know if it’s that one or
21:33
another one where they took a poll later
21:34
and everyone said yeah Marc Morano beat
21:36
that guy to a pulp but it’s actually in
21:39
the book I’ll detail how they stopped
21:41
these debates in fact if you put on TV
21:43
now even Fox knows you can’t Fox News
21:45
cannot find people for me to debate or
21:47
other scientists at the rate or any air
21:49
something that a scientist but
21:50
scientists debate because they don’t
21:51
want to and I detail in the book 2007
21:54
was the watershed year they had a
21:55
three-on-three debate it was actually
21:57
Michael Crichton Richard Lindsay and
21:58
Phillips thought versus that NASA’s one
22:01
of NASA’s lead global warming scientists
22:02
and two other climate activists
22:04
scientists untuk New York City audience
22:06
of hundreds voted before the debate the
22:09
global warming was
22:10
well ming-lee a crisis after a 90 minute
22:12
debate the same audience voted
22:14
overwhelmingly the global warming was
22:16
not a crisis and the NASA lead scientist
22:19
Gavin Schmidt came out and admitted
22:20
these type of debates aren’t worth it we
22:23
were outgunned we were out class we were
22:24
outmaneuvered we can no longer do this
22:26
anymore he put out the word and that
22:29
became then the mantra of everyone on
22:31
their side even down to the LA Times not
22:33
printing letters to the editors of
22:35
anyone’s skeptical of global warming it
22:37
led to CBS News anchorman Scott Pelley
22:40
in 60 minutes saying he would not
22:42
interview a climate skeptic for any
22:44
segment for CBS News for the same reason
22:46
he wouldn’t interview a Holocaust denier
22:48
they started the smears they stopped all
22:51
debate they claimed the debate was over
22:53
without ever actually having the debate
22:55
or when they did have it they lost badly
22:57
Wow
22:59
and a Holocaust denier you’re always
23:02
Hitler when you’re on the wrong side and
23:05
speakin of that you mentioned the book
23:06
the AMS which is the American
23:08
Meteorological Society I have this under
23:09
my tab dissent is ignored issued
23:12
consensus statements and then surveys of
23:14
the rank-and-file workers or
23:15
meteorologists found that up to 75% of
23:17
them don’t agree with the UN climate
23:18
change panel claims though they
23:19
descended it didn’t stop the Governing
23:21
Board from joining the alleged consensus
23:23
and the NA s and AG you join suit is
23:26
this still a prevalent problem in the
23:27
industry yes this is how they crept how
23:30
they make the sausage of consensus the
23:32
National Academy of Science by the way
23:34
they get they are almost exclusively
23:36
federally funded they’ve taken money
23:38
they’ve lobbied for climate bills the
23:40
head of it and NASA scientists have
23:42
called for carbon taxes I mean this is
23:44
supposed to be our a gosh science by all
23:47
I love debating these climate actors
23:48
this was the science body the National
23:50
Academy excited by Abraham Lincoln how
23:52
this a this body is above reproach no
23:56
it’s not it’s now corrupted taking money
23:58
and engaging in political activism and
24:01
selling out and pimping itself for the
24:03
science of the day that’s funded and
24:05
driven by politics they create this
24:07
illusion through the American
24:08
Meteorological Society the American
24:10
Geophysical the two dozen governing
24:12
board members in the case of the
24:13
American Meteorological Society many of
24:15
them now have been taken over by former
24:17
Al Gore staffers they run these
24:18
organizations they’re steeped in
24:20
politics and funding the two dozen
24:22
governing board members don’t even alert
24:24
the rank-and-file tens of thousands of
24:26
scientists that they’re going to vote
24:27
what they’re going to vote they don’t
24:28
have a direct say these statements are
24:30
issues without the members it’s
24:32
something most times even being aware
24:33
that it’s happening and then of course
24:35
then you do individual surveys you find
24:37
out as you mentioned in the case the
24:38
American Meteorological of the
24:39
seventy-five percent of the people that
24:41
the two dozen governing board members
24:43
allegedly are speaking for completely
24:45
disagree with them but the media doesn’t
24:47
report that the media will say tens of
24:50
thousands of scientists from this group
24:51
all endorsed the United Nations and Al
24:53
Gore view this is maddening it’s all
24:55
it’s all just utter crap but it’s the
24:58
kind of stuff that happens on a daily
24:59
basis in this climate debate so in
25:02
Chapter 14 you call it controlling
25:04
climate or controlling you this might
25:05
under my favorite one in the book maybe
25:07
I got there are a few great ones that
25:08
are up the top but here’s some of the
25:10
tags that I put that I want to discuss
25:12
when I have time to go over all them so
25:13
maybe you can pick let me throw a couple
25:15
things at you before I do
25:16
Richard Lyndon who I didn’t know much
25:18
about but he’s an MIT client scientist
25:20
said that in 2007 controlling carbon is
25:22
a better Kratz dream if you control
25:24
carbon you control life light bulbs yes
25:27
SUV size of your family so here’s a
25:30
couple tabs activists admit it’s about
25:31
money and policy not the environment
25:33
climate reparations we got to talk about
25:35
that one yeah and combining I title this
25:38
combining Asian privilege and
25:39
transgender pseudoscience let me just
25:41
read this professor Matthew Lee out of
25:43
the Center for Bioethics in New York
25:45
that’s an interesting title has promoted
25:47
a solution of human engineering for
25:49
climate change it involves the
25:50
biomedical modification of humans in
25:53
which dr. Leal proposes genetically
25:55
engineered humans with pharmacological
25:57
enhancements to combat global warming by
26:00
reducing the height of average man in
26:02
the US by 15 centimeters would mean a
26:04
23% reduction and metabolic reduction
26:07
another possible and much more dangerous
26:08
possibility to consider hormone
26:10
treatments to close growth hormone
26:12
earlier than normal what the actual hell
26:15
is this
26:16
this is Josef Mendel II doing guy just
26:21
broke Godwin’s law but this is it in the
26:23
modern age he is talking about
26:24
genetically modifying people and he goes
26:26
even beyond that he’s proposing or he
26:29
likes to say he’s only suggesting this
26:31
stuff you know just took for a debate
26:33
and stuff but yeah obviously he’s got
26:34
this well thought out he’s
26:35
and he’s given speeches on it and it’s
26:38
getting eaten up people love this
26:39
because they believe smaller people are
26:42
less resource-intensive but people who
26:44
don’t care about climate change he’s
26:46
actually recommending psycho psycho
26:47
psycho deli drugs essentially over the
26:49
prescription drugs to make you care
26:52
about it and this you know if you go in
26:55
to start realizing that they want to
26:56
genetically modify humans but they also
26:59
I detail a Hans Shula new bird German
27:01
climate adviser who wants a co2 budget
27:05
for every man woman and child on the
27:06
planet and we in the United States have
27:08
already exceeded our budget so we’re
27:09
going to be facing severe penalties we
27:11
have an activists in here who’s promoted
27:13
by Bill Nye and national public NPR
27:15
National Public Radio who says we need
27:17
to save our kids from global warming by
27:19
not having them so the serious talk
27:21
about managing the size of families for
27:24
the government we have Al Gore in the
27:25
book who says at a Bill Gates event that
27:28
Africa is projected to have the hugest
27:29
number increase of people in the next
27:31
century and that we need quote
27:32
ubiquitous fertility management unquote
27:35
in order to stop this a white wealthy
27:38
westerner lamenting that there’s going
27:39
to be too many people of color coming
27:41
out of Africa and he wants to stop them
27:43
and reduce their numbers what other
27:45
politician could get away with that kind
27:48
of a comment on the cover of the book it
27:50
actually says that which with the
27:51
surfing polar bear which I love by the
27:52
way you mentioned look the polar bear
27:54
they took him off the logo right which
27:55
which organization is that that doesn’t
27:56
need the polar bear anymore well you
27:58
know I think I think a couple of
28:00
environmental games used to have used to
28:02
be there there’s your poster child a
28:04
global warming well now even the
28:06
indigenous people of Canada Canadians
28:08
they cannot maintain that fiction
28:10
anymore polar bear numbers are at or
28:12
near record highs there they’re coming
28:15
through the sea busting through the
28:16
seams there’s no way you can claim any
28:19
kind of effect from global warming other
28:21
than positive if you want to get at it I
28:23
mean this is this is an unbelievable
28:24
thing but they can still come out and I
28:26
show how they use predictions and models
28:28
they still say it’s worse than we
28:30
thought for the polar bear you say how
28:31
is that even possible and they say well
28:33
our predictions of 75 years from now
28:35
show it’s very dire for the polar bear
28:37
and just four years ago our predictions
28:38
weren’t that bad
28:39
so they can do a misdirect when current
28:41
reality fails them whether it’s sea
28:43
level rise temperature polar bears etc
28:46
or extreme weather
28:47
they just make pre scarier and
28:49
your predictions of 50 to 100 years out
28:52
and that’s how they say it’s worse than
28:54
we thought and the media will report the
28:56
predictions while ignoring the current
28:58
reality that’s one of the little tricks
29:00
that they do it’s a very effective trick
29:02
by the way it’s great stuff I got a
29:03
little squirrel there but it says on the
29:06
cover evil personified that’s how they
29:08
just the dailykos described you and I
29:09
thought I’m putting on my bucket list
29:11
someday I want the daily coast to call
29:12
me evil and I read through this and
29:14
think okay climate reparations
29:16
specifically for Westerners nobody else
29:17
you’ve got the Baltimore professor Eden
29:21
Hoffer admitting that really this is all
29:23
about it’s not about environmental
29:24
policy it’s about money and persuasion
29:27
here’s the you annex professor aun top
29:29
executive saying that that the UN is not
29:32
about climate or environmental policy
29:33
it’s about wealth redistribution I also
29:36
interviewed recently the UN climate
29:38
chief Cristina Figueres who said when
29:40
you seek the UN seeks a centralized
29:43
transformation that will make life on
29:44
planet Earth very different for everyone
29:46
was that told to the American people
29:48
when President Obama signed on to the UN
29:50
Paris agreement that the UN was using it
29:52
to seek a centralized transformation to
29:54
make life on planet Earth different I
29:56
don’t think people are aware of what’s
29:59
going on here but they’re open they
30:00
openly say all this but it’s not it’s
30:02
not making it down to the American body
30:04
politic yeah I don’t remember hearing
30:06
any about that let’s talk about D growth
30:08
as a policy objective you made it but in
30:09
the book you talked about Kevin Anderson
30:12
who was the deputy director of the
30:14
Tyndall Center for climate change said
30:16
continuing with economic growth over the
30:18
coming two decades is incompatible with
30:19
meeting our international obligations on
30:21
climate change and then you also quote
30:23
Naomi crazy Klein who wrote a book
30:26
called this changes everything
30:27
capitalism versus the climate in which
30:29
she asserts that capitalism is their
30:30
reconcilable with a livable climate
30:32
turns out she’s an advisor to Pope
30:35
Francis imagine my shock yes I actually
30:39
did a whole there’s a bonus chapter on
30:41
religion which was too long for the book
30:43
you look at too many chapters so I’ll be
30:45
making it available online but I’m
30:48
interested I’m very interested okay I
30:49
detail how in the book I did what did
30:52
make it in the book is how Pope Francis
30:54
has become a United Nations climate
30:56
lobbyist he told Catholics to pray for a
30:58
successful outcome of the UN treaty
31:00
success being defined as all the
31:02
countries
31:03
and start this nonsense and the second
31:05
thing is the Pope brought in what I call
31:07
a unholy alliance of climate advisors
31:10
people who are a completely opposite of
31:12
Catholic theology doctrine on abortion
31:14
birth control contraception and a whole
31:18
range of issues and he brought in all
31:20
these radicals Naomi Klein is one of
31:22
them and this is and I actually was I
31:25
think this in the book courts and the
31:27
bonus centers actually went to the you
31:28
the Vatican climate summit in 2015 and I
31:31
was threatened to be removed by armed
31:33
the United Nations security for asking a
31:36
question of then UN chief Ban ki-moon
31:37
the Pope United with the UN and the
31:41
result is not pretty I’ve done a couple
31:44
of videos about how bad I feel for my
31:46
Catholic friends who are left wondering
31:47
what are we going to do about this man
31:49
who’s single-handedly sinking our church
31:51
or at least getting it away from the
31:53
idea of salvation and joyful living but
31:56
that’s a video for a different day I
31:58
still I have this theory I don’t know
32:00
this guy professor Matthew Lee or Lee or
32:02
however you pronounce it but I have this
32:03
feeling it’s kind of like a Mark
32:04
Zuckerberg thing where he’s in college
32:05
and some dream girl told him he was too
32:07
short she didn’t date Asians and he’s
32:09
like I can fix this I’m gonna make
32:11
everybody fifty centimeters shorter poor
32:14
guy I saw the Matt Damon movie which
32:19
where they shrink people to fight global
32:21
warming and that first half the movie is
32:23
very entertaining it’s all about
32:25
lowering your carbon footprint and the
32:27
people get shrunk down they live in this
32:28
little village but it’s Hollywood’s
32:30
fantasy of how we can solve global
32:32
warming and make people less
32:34
resource-intensive
32:35
and it followed the teaching you know
32:37
you have real-life Hollywood this is the
32:39
case of Hollywood imitating real life
32:40
this was actually Professor proposes it
32:43
and then a Hollywood movie follows suit
32:45
with shrinking people what movie was
32:47
that I don’t know if it’s called
32:48
downsizing Matt Damon’s downsizing it
32:51
got very poor at the box office it came
32:53
out maybe in January or December yeah
32:55
he’s uh apparently he’s moving to
32:57
Australia yes because it’s Trump but he
33:00
denies it of course yeah more power to
33:02
him go have to have that I haven’t
33:03
watching even Matt Damon’s movies for a
33:04
while but that’s just me alright so talk
33:08
to us about václav Klaus when you read
33:10
when I read information about people
33:12
like former Czech president václav Klaus
33:14
it makes my heart warm it’s almost like
33:16
watching the
33:16
my heart just feels so strongly about
33:18
that I want to I want to follow those
33:20
feelings the guy’s a stud tell us about
33:22
what he said about communism yes and he
33:24
is one of the key figures in the book he
33:26
grew up under the Eastern Bloc he was
33:29
from the Czechoslovakia now the Czech
33:30
Republic he knows what Soviet communist
33:33
domination is like and I actually went
33:35
to actually met him in person
33:36
interviewed him at his Presidential
33:38
Library in Prague he explained to me in
33:41
very simple terms that these tactics
33:43
that they used in the climate debate
33:45
today including the indoctrination of
33:47
children are borrowing the same playbook
33:49
from the centralized system that was
33:52
under the old eastern bloc and Soviet
33:54
system and he bluntly asserts that and
33:57
this is without any hesitation that the
34:00
greatest threat to individual liberty
34:02
today since the fall of the Soviet Union
34:04
and the Berlin Wall is nothing short of
34:07
what he calls ambitious environmentalism
34:09
as practiced through the climate agenda
34:11
and you know you go on you have the
34:13
carbon budgets you have the carbon
34:15
ration cards and employees are going to
34:17
issue then an see Pelosi went to China
34:19
by the way and so we need to control it
34:20
a complete inventory on every aspect of
34:22
our lives in order to fight global
34:24
warming and I detail the book how many
34:26
climate activists including for the New
34:28
York Times idolized China’s system the
34:30
one-party rule where they can just get
34:32
things done for the environment and they
34:34
don’t have the messiness of democracy
34:35
and it all to deal with deniers
34:37
but václav Klaus laid it out and said
34:39
this is our greatest threat to freedom
34:41
is this climate agenda
34:43
yeah the Daily Mail no.8 we saw more on
34:45
this idea of carbon rationing they have
34:47
the ability to post fines modern
34:48
employee employee emissions home energy
34:50
bills petrol purchases holiday flights
34:52
how many kids you can have it’s scary
34:55
stuff especially if you’ve been to China
34:56
it’s it boggles the mind how much these
34:59
people want power you know we’re running
35:02
out of time but we got a touch on the
35:03
gravy train I had I didn’t know that
35:05
studies show I think it’s according to
35:07
the climate policy initiative a billion
35:09
dollars per day being spent fighting
35:12
climate change we hear about the
35:13
military we hear about roads and bridges
35:15
we hear about our schools and homeless
35:16
people we don’t hear about a billion
35:18
dollars a day getting shoveled towards
35:19
climate reparations talk to us about how
35:22
this is possible what we do about it
35:24
well this is part of the UN Paris
35:26
agreement it’s also part of all the
35:28
government mandate
35:29
from around the world all the government
35:31
research all the government you know
35:32
forced energy subsidies they’re trying
35:35
to ban energy that proven works to make
35:38
an mandate energy that’s not yet ready
35:39
for prime time the so-called renewables
35:41
or as some people call the unreliable so
35:45
what’s happening here is the UN Paris
35:48
agreement would have been the most
35:49
expensive treaty in world history 100
35:51
trillion dollar price tag President
35:53
Trump
35:53
pulls us out and now the Europe of
35:55
course is freaking out because the big
35:57
cash cow that they were gonna
35:58
redistribute all this wealth
35:59
I actually detail Leon Lowe is this
36:01
South African Development activist he’s
36:03
one of my favorite quotes in the book he
36:05
says that that the UN climate fund is
36:08
designed to go to the third world
36:10
countries and ascend and literally pay
36:13
and give the money to the the
36:15
third-world dictators who are best able
36:16
to keep their citizens locked in poverty
36:19
in other words if you’re if you’re like
36:21
you remember we talked about planned
36:22
recessions or economic D growth
36:24
well the developing world’s doing it
36:26
right they don’t have that kind of
36:27
emissions because the people are dying
36:29
young and high infant mortality short
36:31
life expectancy no modern dentistry
36:33
filthy rivers from using them as sewers
36:35
horrible lung problems from burning dung
36:37
and wood and they’re they’re doing it
36:39
right so the UN climate funds going to
36:42
go to countries that keep them from
36:43
developing and this is and this is one
36:45
of the most insidious evil things
36:47
because it’s about one over a billion
36:48
people don’t have running water and
36:49
electricity so this is part of the
36:53
entire climate agenda is to keep people
36:55
poor and this is and to keep them
36:58
controlled even in the u.s. it’s much
36:59
more mild but everything from our light
37:01
bulbs to our washing machines to our
37:03
dishwashers you can see consumer reports
37:04
15 years ago low end is washers and
37:07
dishwashers washing machines clean
37:09
clothes better than the high-end stuff
37:11
today for one simple reason
37:12
Energy Star regulations have been
37:14
strangling all of our appliances the EPA
37:17
is going after our cars now with these
37:19
unbelievable steep slope EPA corporate
37:22
average fuel economy standards to the
37:24
point where the modern SUV is either
37:26
going to have to turn into plastic or it
37:28
was to go to significant weight
37:30
reductions unless the Trump
37:31
administration can change these
37:32
incredibly increasing EPA mandates that
37:36
were set upon in the previous
37:37
administrations yeah and I think I want
37:38
to close with this when you talk about
37:40
Africa I when I trolling online
37:42
often throught Tavis Smiley’s quote that
37:44
Barack Obama hasn’t improved any of the
37:46
socio-economic demographics for black
37:48
people during his tenure but now that
37:50
some of the other stuff is coming out
37:51
about misuse of the DOJ and all the
37:53
community organizing and the
37:54
far-reaching effects of these policies
37:55
the the ones about the third world were
37:58
really disturbing to me I think it was
38:00
Danish cetacean borne lumber who did the
38:03
cost-benefit analysis for the Pyrus
38:05
Paris climate Accord and basically said
38:07
the effect is negligible despite all the
38:09
spending yet in the third world
38:10
countries like you said these activists
38:12
understand that they’re being
38:14
constricted they’re basically being were
38:16
sending money to the slave plantation
38:18
owners to keep these people from ever
38:19
experiencing the prosperity that we have
38:21
here and Barack Obama was the one who
38:23
fought these coal power plants and
38:25
fossil reliable energy sources in the
38:28
third world to me
38:30
that is evil personified people’s eyes
38:32
yes what some of the things are in the
38:34
book that our beloved president our
38:36
hallowed be his name was doing to these
38:38
people to keep them in grinding poverty
38:40
yes even through the World Bank you
38:43
wouldn’t allow coal-fired power projects
38:45
all the fit with this climate agenda of
38:48
keeping people locked in poverty it’s
38:50
one of the most evil things as you say
38:53
evil personified in the book the former
38:55
Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore has
38:57
said it’s the modern environmental
38:58
movement is literally in two words anti
39:00
human and there’s no other way to
39:02
describe it because they’re against
39:03
human progress and civilization and as
39:05
you mentioned not to do nothing even the
39:07
UN projections if the UN Paris agreement
39:09
were fully implemented you would have
39:11
essentially delay in the temperature 100
39:13
years by less than four years and that’s
39:15
assuming they’re right in the science
39:17
assuming every country does what it says
39:18
it’s going to do both assumptions
39:20
completely not valid either but even if
39:23
you believe their own rhetoric it would
39:25
have no impact so and I interviewed
39:27
Robert gegen Jack the University of
39:29
Pennsylvania and geologist who voted for
39:31
Al Gore but he now says that you know
39:34
that he was appalled when he saw Al
39:36
Gore’s film he’s spoken out said the
39:38
word are currently in the lowest level
39:39
of co2 in the geologic history of the
39:42
earth there is no crisis and his point
39:45
is even if we faced a climate
39:46
catastrophe the solutions being proposed
39:49
by EPA UN would have no impact because
39:52
they’re an order of magnitude that
39:53
wouldn’t even impact the climate system
39:55
in other words even
39:56
it’s you know as one scientist said you
39:58
can go outside and spit and have the
40:00
same effect as doubling co2 now imagine
40:03
you’re just trying to like limit co2 at
40:05
the margins and have an outcome
40:06
predictable it’s not there so hundreds
40:09
of factors control the climate co2 is
40:11
not the control knob that’s the main
40:14
message of this book and Nobel Prize
40:15
winning scientist UN scientists have
40:17
turned against it this book gives them a
40:20
voice no parent in America should be
40:22
without this book anyone who wants a
40:24
debate global warming should not be
40:25
without this it’s footnoted insights all
40:27
the peer-reviewed studies updated
40:29
through all the recent hurricanes and
40:30
all the nonsense that they claim there
40:31
as well I was gonna close out with what
40:33
you just said it should be on your shelf
40:34
I think this is a fantastic resource
40:36
obviously people can go to Amazon and
40:37
buy it but also I’ll send you out let
40:39
everyone know where they can connect
40:40
with you your website and what they
40:42
should do to acquit themselves beyond
40:44

40:47
way Amazon sold out the first you know
40:50
ten days the books that are out for next
40:51
couple days they sold out of the books
40:53
made the top Amazon 100 you can go to
40:55
climate depot calm and you order
40:57
directly from there we have some we
40:58
still have some of our books available
41:00
for the new shippers are you on social
41:01
media are you worried that it’s also
41:03
bringing the planet to its demise yes
41:06
it’s at climate Depot well Marc Morano I
41:10
got a lot of respect for you I was
41:11
fascinated by the wealth of information
41:13
I feel like you literally know more
41:15
about this topic than most people ever
