While scientific evidence shows CO2 is life-sustaining, the “official narrative” continues to gaslight its crucial role in our world
Studies indicate the atmosphere is already saturated with CO2, making additional emissions negligible in driving global temperature increases, contradicting the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (“IPCC”) predictions of catastrophic warming.
Research shows that rising CO2 levels (e.g., from 100 to 400 ppm) result in minimal temperature increases (e.g., 0.3°C), with no additional warming beyond 400 ppm.
CO2 drives photosynthesis and plant growth, with satellite data showing a 20-30% increase in global greening since 1982, particularly in regions like India and the Sahel.
Despite scientific evidence, mainstream media and political agendas continue to push Net Zero policies, ignoring CO2‘s life-sustaining benefits and its positive environmental impact...<<<Read More>>>...

Gas Boilers Banned in New Homes From 2027
Gas boilers are to be banned in most new homes by 2027 as part of legislation being brought forward by the Government. The Telegraph has the story.
Under the so-called Future Homes Standard, which aims to slash carbon emissions across households, developers must ensure that new-builds are only fitted out with electric heat pumps or non-gas alternatives.
Rules regarding the gas boiler ban are expected to be announced as early as May next year, although they are unlikely to be enforced until the relevant legislation takes effect in 2026.
That would be followed by a 12-month delay to ensure housebuilders are prepared for the switchover, as first reported by the Financial Times.
The proposed ban comes after the previous Tory Government launched a consultation on the Future Homes Standard policy last year.
The new legislation aims to reduce carbon emissions across all new homes by up to 80%.
However, the decision to outlaw gas boilers has raised concerns over
whether the heat pump supply chain can grow quickly enough to match Sir
Keir Starmer’s bid to build 300,000 new homes a year....<<<Read More>>>...

It’s time we all demand answers to the real-world costs of “renewables”
Because fear pays. But even fear as a weapon has its limits when people begin to see clearly through the fog.
Europeans are now questioning United Nations (“UN”) and World Economic Forum (“WEF”) “climate change” mandates.
In Australia, a recent rally against reckless renewables called for an immediate suspension of all “renewable energy” projects until inquiries into the excessive economic, social, and environmental costs have been completed.
Isn’t it time for people everywhere to demand answers?
Fear pays. the UCS, [Union of Concerned Scientists], also a leading advocate for “green energy,” has an annual budget of about $43 million, while Greenpeace’s may be 10 times that amount. Other fear-mongering groups rake in collective billions – dwarfing the revenues of non-profits who advocate for a balanced, far less disruptive approach to future energy use.
Fear has led to the neglect and downplaying of important, even urgent, human concerns and allowed the elites to begin restructuring world society to accommodate their belief (or tool for control) that carbon dioxide is an evil that must be eradicated. The carbon conundrum has even confabulated the field of geopolitics and turned allies into enemies and vice versa....<<<Read More>>>...

UK report recommends a 50% REDUCTION in emissions by 2030 – green tyranny incoming
Their agenda relies on this utter BS creeping out into the general public arenas. They rely on telling the dumbed down humans what they plan to do next.
These moronic gullible useless eaters then go along with it, as they know nothing else but slavery and compliance....
++++++++++++++++++
A report from the United Kingdom has recommended a 50 percent reduction in consumption-based greenhouse gas emissions by the year 2030.
The report titled "The Future of Urban Consumption in a 1.5 C World" put forward this recommendation. It was first published in 2019 and re-emphasized four years later. The C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group, the Arup Group and the University of Leeds were the ones responsible for this paper.
The report highlighted the urgency of reducing what it calls "consumption-based emissions," stressing that these must be slashed by at least 50 percent by 2030. It identified food, construction, clothing, vehicles, aviation and electronics as key sectors that require rapid action. To achieve this objective, it outlined limitations on meat and dairy consumption, clothing purchases, and air travel.
A separate study conducted by the three entities zoomed in on how food consumption in the C40 group of cities is also a significant driver of climate change. The said study titled "Addressing Food-Related Consumption-Based Emissions in C40 Cities" was presented at the EAT Forum in the Swedish capital Stockholm.
The study presented at Stockholm claimed that in 2017, food represented 13 percent of the total consumption-based emissions in the world's largest cities. It warned that this could rise by 38 percent by 2050 if no action is done...<<<Read More>>>...

Lab-grown “meat” produces 25x more carbon dioxide “pollution” than traditional animal husbandry
Every kilogram of lab-grown meat generates anywhere from 542 pounds (246 kg) to 3,325 pounds (1,508 kg) of CO2 emissions, rendering it anywhere from four to 25 times more harmful to the environment, based on global warming rhetoric, than conventional beef.
From “cradle to gate,” as they call it, the process of culturing and growing fake meat in a lab is far more energy intensive than simply letting real animals roam on natural pastures eating grasses and producing meat the natural way.
Lab-grown meat is great for the corporations that produce it, along with their shareholders, but it is anything but good for the natural environment.
“While the fake meat industry is being touted as an environmentally friendly and sustainable way to feed the world, the true intent is to recreate the kind of global control that Monsanto and others achieved through patented GMO seed development,” writes Dr. Joseph Mercola.
“In the end, lab-created meats are worse for the environment than
livestock and will undoubtedly deteriorate human health to boot, just
like GMO grains have.”...<<<Read More>>>...

The destruction caused by “renewable energy”; the not-so-green reality behind the green agenda
The nationalist clatter last week around the possible sale of Teck Resources of Vancouver to Swiss mining giant Glencore reflected the new official Canadian corporatist approach. As a key global player in the business of producing “critical minerals” – copper, zinc, molybdenum – Teck is seen as a vital cog in the wheel of economic fortune swirling around the net-zero objectives.
The Trudeau Liberals’ enthusiasm for the new national economic model was captured in ‘The Canadian Critical Minerals Strategy’, a report released last December by Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson and Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne. “Critical minerals are the building blocks for the green and digital economy. There is no energy transition without critical minerals: no batteries, no electric cars, no wind turbines and no solar panels. The sun provides raw energy, but electricity flows through copper. Wind turbines need manganese, platinum and rare earth magnets. Nuclear power requires uranium. Electric vehicles require batteries made with lithium, cobalt and nickel and magnets. Indium and tellurium are integral to solar panel manufacturing.”
Both Ministers signed a letter in defence of Teck Resources as a national corporate champion. Teck, they said, is “of central importance to our country as we expand our critical minerals value chain and build a clean economy.”
But exactly how clean and green is the net-zero economic strategy? It’s a question raised in a revealing commentary by veteran Canadian environmental journalist Andrew Nikiforuk. Writing in The Tyee, a Vancouver-based online publication, Nikiforuk reviews the work of academics and a “rising chorus of renewable energy sceptics” who believe that the great transition to a renewable energy future is a green techno-dream that is “vastly destructive.”...<<<Read More>>>...

Carbon Dioxide is the Elixir of Life, Let’s Celebrate It Not Demonise It
However, neither is true. CO2 is an elixir of life, supporting plants for hundreds of millions of years and making virtually all life on Earth possible. Plants rely on photosynthesis to produce glucose, using water from the soil and CO2 from the air.
Life-giving CO2 should be valued, not demonised
In short, CO2 is plant food. As a matter of fact, CO2 emissions from industrial processes of the last two centuries have been highly beneficial to plant growth. Scientific studies show that CO2 has played a significant role in the re-greening of the earth after abnormally low CO2 levels had limited much of the planet’s vegetation due to CO2 starvation.
Even the remarkable increase in global food production of the past century has been made possible by higher levels of CO2, along with moderately warmer temperatures and modern farming practices.
Scientific American reports that the CO2 fertilization effect in natural ecosystems like forests is very evident. In a set of experiments, scientists artificially doubled CO2 from pre-industrial levels which “increased trees’ productivity by around 23 per cent.”
Francis Moore of the University of California, Davis, says, “For most of the other plants humans eat – including wheat, rice and soybeans – having higher CO2 will help them directly… Doubling CO2 from pre-industrial levels does boost the productivity of crops like wheat by some 11.5 per cent and of those such as corn by around 8.4 per cent.”
Artificially elevating CO2 levels in greenhouses has proven to be a game changer in many parts of the world. Increasing CO2 concentrations to more than 1,000 parts per million from the ambient level of about 400 ppm has helped greenhouse farms improve productivity by 20 to 30 per cent....<<<Read More>>>...

UK Gov. “Nudge Unit” is working with Banks to implement Social Credit System disguised as ‘Carbon Guilt Trip Tracker’
+++++++++++++++++++
Imagine you just filled up at the petrol station and you get a message on your phone saying: “Did you know this purchase is equivalent to over 200 kg of carbon? If you used public transport more, you’d save over half.”This is a service that Cogo, a carbon impact platform is providing for mobile banking apps, such as NatWest with the aim to inform and change behaviours.
And they are working in partnership with notorious communist Professor Susan Michie’s Behavioural Insight Team, which was responsible for the propaganda and lies published and spouted on a daily basis during the Covid-19 pandemic in order to manipulate you into giving up your freedoms and rights without a fight.
Cogo is a carbon footprint management product that helps individuals and businesses to measure, reduce and offset their impact on the climate. It has a powerful algorithm that can calculate the carbon emissions of all transactions on an account.
Coga’s mission statement is to “Support hundreds of millions of individuals and businesses across the world to be more conscious of the impact of their spending on people and the planet”.
Through their banking app products, businesses and consumers can track their individual carbon emissions.
Coga has partnered with leading banks to transition their customers into a low-carbon economy including: Natwest, RBS, Coutts, Westpac, Commonwealth Bank, ING, Ulster Bank, TSB, Mastercard, Satander, The Cumberland, Kiwibank and OTP Bank.
Carbon footprint trackers are being embedded into these banking apps. For example, NatWest analyses your monthly transactions and matches them to their industry categories (grocery, energy, transportation). Carbon footprints are then calculated by multiplying transaction amounts by emissions factors....<<<Read More>>>...

EV charging now nearly as expensive as filling up a car with gasoline
Figures from RAC Charge Watch, part of the RAC automotive services company, showed a 42 percent increase in EV charging rates since May 2022. EV drivers in the U.K. now have to pay an average of £0.63 ($0.72) per kilowatt hour (kWh) to charge their vehicles. The RAC added that a typical family-sized electric car that has a 64 kWh battery now costs £32.41 ($37.03) to rapidly charge it to 80 percent.
According to the company, “soaring costs of wholesale gas and electricity” are to blame for the spike in EV charging costs. It added that those using ultra-rapid charging systems also saw a 25 percent increase in their average charging costs.
Based on the RAC analysis, drivers using rapid or ultra-rapid charger on the public grid will pay around £0.18 ($0.21) per mile for electricity. This is comparable to the £0.19 ($0.22) per mile for a gasoline car and a slightly higher £0.21 ($0.24) for a diesel one, based on someone driving at an average of 40 miles per gallon.
The RAC noted that EV owners now prefer charging their cars at home
to save on energy costs. With the British government’s energy price
guarantee set to come into force, the price per mile for charging an
average sized EV at home would come in at only £0.09 ($0.10). For an 80
percent charge, electric bills would only rack up to a total of £17.87
($20.42)....<<<Read More>>>....

Bristol Mayor who declared ‘climate emergency’ flies 9,000 miles to Canada to lecture on the importance of cutting carbon emissions
Bristol’s Labour mayor Marvin Rees made the 9,000-mile round trip to give a 14-minute speech at a conference in Vancouver last month.
Climate campaigners blasted Mr Rees over his long-haul flight, with one critic complaining on social media: ‘Why didn’t he do it virtually?’
He also said he wanted to ‘show off about my own city,’ and boasted
about the measures that had been taken in Bristol to reduce emissions.
Declaring a ‘climate emergency’ in 2018, he set a goal for the city to
become carbon neutral by 2030, including cutting ‘indirect emissions’
such as international travel...<<<Read More>>>...
