Morano: "Gore is trying desperately to say something provocative to make himself relevant which is how he came up with the Uvalde school shooting analogy which is absurd." See: Watch: Gore claims ‘climate deniers are really in some ways similar’ to cops at Uvalde shooting who sat idle – ‘They heard the screams, they heard the gunshots, & nobody stepped forward’

Morano: "Due to fossil fuels, due to our energy that Gore has been fighting for decades, there has been a 99% drop in climate-related deaths since 1920. It is a success story and mostly credited to fossil fuels which fuel development, which fuel economic growth, which fuels safety from extreme weather events. So Gore has it wrong. The people blocking him (the 'climate deniers') are the ones saving lives."

After 100 years of climate change, ‘climate-related deaths’ approach zero – Dropped by over 99% since 1920

Climate Reality Project founded by Al Gore: "Every health risk puts their baby at risk, and climate change offers no shortage of potential complications. Preterm births, poor maternal health, and stillborn rates are all expected to climb as global temperatures continue to rise."

Epstein: "Gore shows us the town of Georgetown, Tex. and its use of 100-per-cent renewable energy. Stories about “100-per-cent renewable” locations like Georgetown, Tex. are not just anecdotal evidence, they are lies. The Texas grid from which Georgetown draws its electricity is comprised of 43.7 per cent natural gas, 28.8 per cent coal, 12 per cent nuclear, and only 15.6 per cent renewable. Using a virtue-signalling gimmick pioneered by Apple, Facebook, and Google, Georgetown pays its state utility to label its grid electricity “renewable” —  even though it draws its power from that fossil-fuel heavy Texas grid — while tarring others on the grid as 'non-renewable.'”

'Not since Ronald Reagan assumed office 36 years ago have they had to deal with a president-elect who is both so reviled by their core voters and masterful at using the television cameras to co-opt them — even in those cases where they arrive at his doorstep to school him on why he is wrong.'

'We keep seeing individuals appointed to transition positions,  considered for major environmental posts, or acting as advisers who have previously also expressed doubt about key aspects of the science of climate change, or opposed various types of action on the problem.'

Then there's this from Climate Depot: Princeton physicist William Happer says that "if global warming were any other branch of science it would have been abandoned a long time ago." Climate scientists are, of course, obsessed with man's carbon dioxide emissions. But Happer says this is essentially nonsense. "All of the geological evidence indicates that CO2 is a minor player" in previous eras of warming, he said last week in a Climate Depot podcast. "We've had ice ages with 10 times more CO2 than we have today. That's not supposed to happen, according to current computer models, but it did happen."
