Editors at Issues and Insights highlight facts that stand in the way of climate alarmists’ goals.
Last week we noted that so far there had been zero Atlantic hurricanes, a record. For the first time in 112 years, we’ve now gone this deep into hurricane season without one. Of course the media ignore this monumental phenomenon because it doesn’t fit the global warming tale. So what other inconvenient facts are they covering up? Here’s a partial list:
The Great Barrier Reef, that immense coral system off of Australia’s northeastern coast, the largest living structure on the planet, which experts said was being killed by manmade global warming, has gone through its best five years on record. Official reef-wide statistics were “widely published as the Great Barrier Reef got worse,” says Danish researcher Bjorn Lomborg, but when the data showed improvement, the statistic keeping stopped.
“Vegetation greenness has been increasing globally since at least 1981, when satellite technology enabled large-scale vegetation monitoring,” says a study published in Nature. “Global vegetation models suggest that CO2 fertilization is the main driver of global vegetation greening.” The volume of additional greenery is equivalent in size to the contiguous U.S. four times over. The findings support previous reports that reached the same conclusion: Earth is going green. …
… Former climate activist/climate reporter Lucy Biggers, now head of social media at The Free Press, recently confessed that she “never covered positive climate stories because it would muddy the message that climate change was an existential threat that was burning the planet.” She would cover the stories “that made the climate look worse.” This is “why we rarely see events like this year’s historically quiet eastern hurricane season covered widely by the news,” she adds. “Many reporters believe covering it will give fodder to climate change deniers.”
She left the reservation but she says news outlets still have reporters who are agenda-driven as she was, and think they’re reporting the truth when they’re actually amplifying the activist propaganda.
