Europe spent hundreds of billions on emissions reduction last year. What if that money had been spent putting air conditioners in the homes of elderly people across the continent? “Tens of thousands of lives would be saved,” argues @LLBiggers.

SMH This whole debate about whether @aoc is telling the truth is an annoying distraction from the fact that CRAZY PEOPLE STORMED THE CAPITOL. I’m so frustrated!

Day 4 of my calming climate charts series. Today I’m tackling wildfires. Wildfires are devastating but nowhere near historic highs. Young people have no historical context about wildfires and are fed misleading charts and apocalyptic headlines that spread fear.

I’m starting a new series where I share a chart each day that will help calm climate anxiety. The point of sharing these is to show the average person that the science around climate change is complex and it is not an end-of-the-world scenario. These charts are ones I’ve saved

It took me five years to find the courage to speak out against climate alarmism. I was only able to do so by following in the footsteps of brave climate realists like @curryja, @AlexEpstein, @ShellenbergerMD, Steve Koonin, @BjornLomborg, and countless others who faced real

Today, Bill Gates admitted that pushing climate doomerism was a mistake. @LLBiggers: “That shift to common sense is welcome, but it comes after decades of fearmongering that harmed young people, stalled development, and punished dissenting scientists.”

Day 5 of my calming climate charts series. Today I'm tackling heatwaves! Back in my climate movement days, I had no idea the record for worst heat was held by 1936! If I had known this I think I would been less anxious each time I walked outside and it was hot! More young

When I was 25, I would’ve been obsessed with Zohran Mamdani. At 27, I helped get AOC elected. I made a viral video about her campaign, met her a bunch of times, and was totally bought in. Now I’m 35, and I’ve grown up. The feel-good promises of free college, free food, free

Day 2 of my Calming Climate Charts series! Today, I’m looking at a NASA chart that shows the global greening that has occurred since the 1980s due to increased CO₂. When I was deep in the climate movement mindset, I believed CO₂ was an evil pollutant—literally killing the

Day 3 of my Calming Climate Chart series! Today I reference the work of @AlexEpstein who has been a huge inspiration for me. We’ve never been safer from the climate and yet young people walk around thinking deaths are getting worse. The misinformation and fearmongering from the

Part 2: My Influences That Made Me Question the Climate Alarmism Narrative Today I want to share some of the influences that helped me wake up to the fact that the climate movement is pushing an alarmist narrative that’s doing more harm than good. Right now, most young people

Day 6 of my Calming Climate Chart Series. Today I tackle hurricanes! Despite the scary headlines there is no increase in the frequency or intensity of hurricanes! Why is this not more common knowledge?
