If not, why not? The world’s eco-anxiety over “climate change” has turned into a totally irrational eco-panic.
Entire government agencies are being weaponized to eliminate farming and transportation. Because “climate change.” And if anyone contradicts the climate change religion, he is ridiculed, demonized, silenced and then canceled.
The following news is not new. It has been known since 2016. Summarizes Matt Ridley, “Green vegetation is changing faster than global average temperatures.” And the change is upward, not the other way around. The world is much greener.
The evidence comes from the growth rate of plants and from satellite data: a 14% increase in green vegetation over 30 years, thanks to...guess what? An increase of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide.
Lead author on the study, Zaichun Zhu of Beijing University, says this is equivalent to adding a new continent of green vegetation twice the size of the mainland United States.
It is past time to turn off the eco-panic. Desertification of our planet has now largely reversed. This is because plants lose less water in the process of absorbing carbon dioxide if the concentration of carbon dioxide is higher.
This “global greening” has affected all ecosystems for the better — from arctic tundra to coral reefs to plankton to tropical rain forests and, of course, farms. It is our fear-gripped, self-righteous politicians who are harming our planet and designing for us a bleak future on a barren landscape.

Attention antifa and transtifa and insurrectionists who hate ICE:
Nearly every state has specific statutes that criminalize willfully interrupting or disturbing a religious assembly or worship service. These laws protect the right of people to gather and practice their religion without intentional interference.
Let the Minneapolis arrests begin.
As revealed in a 1955 research and development program memo from the CIA’s Technical Services Staff/Chemical Division, the MK Ultra objectives went far beyond interrogation tools. They envisioned a arsenal of covert chemicals designed to manipulate behavior on a massive scale, administered without detection to render people compliant, confused, or crippled.
Here’s the smoking gun: the memo’s explicit list of desired substances and methods, quoted verbatim from the declassified records:
Substances which will promote illogical thinking and impulsiveness to the point where the recipient would be discredited in public.
Substances which increase the efficiency of mentation and perception.
Materials which will prevent or counteract the intoxicating effect of alcohol.
Materials which will promote the intoxicating effect of alcohol.
Materials which will produce the signs and symptoms of recognized diseases in a reversible way so that they may be used for malingering, etc.
Materials which will render the ...
Janet Yellen shocked the banking world when she said that America's “needed belt tightening is significant—larger than in most programs supported by the International Monetary Fund."
Yes, even larger than the bankrupt nations now beholden to the IMF, which demands a kind of austerity Americans might not survive. Examples:
By 2010, Greek debt had spiraled to 130% of GDP and climbing. No one was willing to lend them money anymore... forcing the IMF to swoop in with a "rescue" package that came with brutal strings attached.
Pensions were slashed by 40%. Public sector wages were frozen, then cut. Over 150,000 government workers were laid off. State assets—airports, ports, utilities—were sold off at fire-sale prices to foreign investors.
Greece's economy contracted by 25%. Youth unemployment hit 60%. An entire generation was hollowed out.
Argentina has been through the IMF wringer multiple times; in fact in in 2018, Argentina received the largest bailout in IMF history: $57 billion....
