- Warmist UK Guardian: This Changes Everything review – ‘Naomi Klein’s documentary on climate change doesn’t’
Negative reviews from sympathetic reviewer!
Film 'delivers another characterless prophecy that’s unlikely to inspire'
'It’s sometimes boring'
'No depth'
T'he implication is that This Changes Everything is going to excite and inspire in a way that climate change documentaries have failed to before. It really doesn’t.'

‘This Changes Everything’ Trailer: Climate Change Docu Based On Naomi Klein’s Bestseller Set For Toronto Premiere
Warmist Naomi Klein: 'I've spent six years wandering through the wreckage caused by the carbon in the air and the economic system that put it there.'
Klein: 'So here is the big question. What if global warming isn't only a crisis? What if it is the best chance we are ever going to get to build a better world. Change or be changed.'
Other quote from trailer: 'There are limits. Let's celebrate the limits, because we can reinvent a different future.'

- Warmist Naomi Klein: Goal of Carbon Divestment Campaign is to Nationalize Companies – They are ‘at odds with life on earth’
Klein: 'Another point I would make, [about] carbon pricing, is that when we make the argument that this is a rogue sector, that their business plan is at odds with life on earth, we are creating an intellectual and political space where it becomes much easier to tax those profits, to increase royalties, and even to nationalize these companies.'

Another New Study Says Warming & CO2-Induced Greening Leads To COOLING Of Land Surface Temperatures
Since the 1980s, 29% of human CO2 emissions were cancelled out by the CO2-induced greening of the Earth. The post-2000 vegetative greening expansion has been so massive (5.4 million km²) its net areal increase is equivalent to a region the size of the Amazon rainforest.

Bill Gates & UN Launch New Climate Agenda – Seeks ‘to kick start a transformational decade’ of climate ‘action’
Boris Johnson, Angela Merkel, Emmanuel Macron, and Narendra Modi will apparently gather in the Netherlands. There, along with Bill Gates, UN head Antonio Guterres, and personnel associated with the European Union, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund, they’ll attend a climate summit hosted by the Global Center on Adaptation. ...
We’re told this summit "will launch a comprehensive Adaptation Action Agenda to kick start a transformational decade."
Donna Laframboise: "The chutzpah is astonishing. The global economy is in tatters. Billions face an uncertain future. Health care workers are exhausted. Yet this Clique of Self-Important People™ is full speed ahead, determined to impose its climate vision on the rest of us."

The Return of the Dead: Countering Species Extinction Claims – The most aggressive claims rest on shaky foundations’
In the last 500 years only some 80 mammals are recorded as having gone extinct. In his book, More From Less, Andrew McAfee, a board member of HumanProgress.org, discusses how relatively rare recorded extinctions are – with some 530 across all species in the last five centuries. More importantly, he notes, the rate of extinction “appear[s] to have slowed down in recent decades; for example, no marine creatures have been recorded as extinct in the last fifty years.”
Matt Ridley, another board member and frequent contributor to this site, argues that despite the human population doubling in the last half-century, “the extinction rate of wild species, especially in the most industrialized countries,” seems to have fallen rather than increased. While absence of evidence isn’t the same as evidence of absence, and there might be millions of unrecorded species in the world’s oceans and tropical forests, the most aggressive claims rest on shaky foundations.
