- Soros purchases U.S. science reports?! New prez of Union of Concerned Scientists comes fresh from George Soros’ foundation
Climate Depot's Morano comments: George Soros is the founder and the chair of the Open Society Foundations. The new Union of Concerned Scientists president is Johanna Chao Kreilick, who managed the Open Society Foundations’ strategy unit and she founded the $43 million Climate Action Initiative.
Why is this so important? The Union of Concerned Scientists essentially oversaw the U.S. federal government's National Climate Assessment in 2017. The extreme catastrophic climate scenarios used in the 2017 National Climate Assessment report read like a press release from environmental pressure groups — because it was! Two key authors were long-time Union of Concerned Scientist activists, Donald Wuebbles and Katharine Hayhoe.
Fast forward to 2021 and the new head of the Union of Concerned Scientists comes fresh from left-wing activist George Soros' foundation. It is amazing how easy it is to purchase climate policy based on discredited extreme climate scenarios in the United States of America. We don't face a 'climate emergency', but we do face left-wing climate activists running U.S. government science reports and policy."

- National Climate Assessment Lead Author Hayhoe Is Now Fossil Fuel Funded Warmist – Joins Billion-Dollar Dark Money Lobbying Group
Joining The Nature Conservancy so soon after serving as a lead author for the National Climate Assessment raises ethical concerns, as The Nature Conservancy spends more than $1 million per year lobbying government – more than any other environment-focused activist group. In return, The Nature Conservancy receives approximately $100 million per year in government grants. The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is a dark-money activist group that does not publicly disclose the names of its donors. To the extent the identities of some TNC donors are known, they include major oil and chemical companies.
Hayhoe also celebrated the COVID economic shutdowns of 2020 for their effects on emissions: "If we want to meet our Paris [agreement] goals, we have to cut our emissions about 45 or 50 percent by 2030. As of this time last year, that seemed like an impossible goal. Well, we got a third of the way there in four weeks. One-third of the way toward the Paris agreement in four weeks! It’s just stunning.”

Al Gore’s Climate TRACE finds vast undercounts of CO2 emissions by industry – Gore’s CO2 tracing seeks to make ‘more enforceable climate agreements’ by giving the ‘UN actionable intelligence to track & crack down on polluters’
Climate TRACE utilizes satellite data, machine learning and artificial intelligence to determine greenhouse gas emissions globally. It aims usher in an era of "radical transparency" and a more enforceable climate agreement by giving nonprofits, governments and the UN actionable intelligence to track and crack down on polluters.

The Media Is Lying About Greenland and Climate Change – It has in fact rained on Greenland before
Last week, media outlets across the globe claimed that there has been rain for the first time at the Greenland summit. “Rain fell at the normally snowy summit of Greenland for the first time on record,” read CNN’s headlines. Others went a step further and declared it a sign of climate doomsday. “Rain On Greenland Ice Sheet, Possibly A First, Signals Climate Change Risk,” read another headline. Unfortunately, for the mainstream media, climate history nearly always comes back to haunt their claims of unprecedented events. Records reveal that this is not the first rainfall in Greenland, and certainly not the first on the Greenland summit peak, which stands at around 10,000 feet.
