A new way to scare people about a fake climate crisis!!!

Hear New Orleans' rising temperatures in music

I often listen to NPR in on the radio while driving. Great human interest stories. 

Crazy Junk science on climate change using scary words and fake statistics. 

For the story/report above, they repeated numerous times that the Summer temperatures in New Orleans have increased 4 deg. F.

Not so!

That's NPR on the fake climate crisis for you. As you can see from the map above, there IS significant warming in many places of the US. The most warming is in the coldest/driest month of Winter. and the map above is for the entire year.

However, they picked a region with the least amount of warming and made up their own data so it matched up with  story that they wanted to tell about New Orleans, which has been getting so much attention the past week from the 20 year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina hitting.


Again, it's the WINTER and DRIEST places that are warming the most and SUMMER and HUMID places that are warming the least. They could have at least picked a place and time of year when +4 Deg F is valid(Winters along the Canadian border or in the Southwest Deserts). 

Warm/Humid  places are warming the least because H2O heat/radiation absorption bands overlap most of the CO2  absorption bands. When those absorption bands are already saturated by H2O, adding CO2 to the air makes no difference. If they are saturated already from H2O, they can't absorb anymore!!!

In the Winter, the H2O in the air is much lower. because cold air hold less H2O.  This allows the impact of CO2 to be more significant.

In the Southwest/Rockies, even in the Summer they have very low humidity so the added CO2 can exploit the absorption bands that have plenty of room for more absorption at those bands.

This is evidence of several things when it comes to NPR programming on the fake climate crisis.

1. NPR is very dishonest

2. NPR is very ignorant 

3. They are not practicing as professional journalists but instead are fake climate crisis activists stealing the intelligence of their listeners. 

4. The vast majority of people that listen to them are liberals/Ds and NOT atmospheric scientists and believed all of it.


Here's another wonderful study that shows just Summer temperatures for the Midwest. 

The tightly packed rows of corn, along with their massive transpiration is the main reason for this very unusual cool anomaly that contrasts with most other places on the planet that have been warming during these same months.

Climate change in the United States, with 100% certainty is helping to protect us from widespread severe droughts.

We are indisputably living in a climate optimum for most life on this planet(that would still prefer a bit more warmth and a lot more CO2) and for growing crops in the United States!

And these false narratives about how warming is increasing droughts and worsening growing conditions because of the increase in CO2 is the complete, diametrically opposed polar opposite of the truth!

Here's a perfect example of why they get it so wrong using the global drought graph from above. Please tell me where on this graph below, that the climate change droughts are and where the natural droughts are since the year 2000? Impossible because the pattern is THE EXACT SAME!  The MSM, in 2025 tells us that EVERY drought is now caused by climate change to the point that they use the terms interchangeably.

Global cooling and LOW CO2 levels are what cause widespread, extremely long lasting droughts with catastrophic global and huge regional famines! 

Here in 2025, we are living in a climate optimum with absolute, scientific certainty!!

You want a REAL climate CRISIS?

This is what it looks like:

Can you imagine if this below happened today? It's less likely because climate change and the current climate OPTIMUM is helping to PROTECT US!

The planet had a REAL climate crisis between 1876 and 1878.

50 million people died. 3% of the global population died from that real climate crisis!

Climate change in the United States, with 100% certainty is helping to protect us from widespread severe droughts.

We've had only 1 severe widespread drought( 2012) since 1988. When historically, we should have seen around 5 such droughts during that time frame.

Meteorology 101 tells us what happens when the planet sees the temperature of the highest latitudes (coldest places, especially coldest time of year) warmed up the most. This is beneficial warming!

Weather becomes LESS extreme in several realms!

The Arctic has warmed nearly four times faster than the globe since 1979

https://www.nature.com/articles/s43247-022-00498-3

Note that Winter warming, when temperatures are the bitter coldest, is 3 times greater. When it's BENEFICIAL warming! This is when the air is the driest and greenhouse gas warming from H2O is minimal, so that that CO2's warming impact from the same absorption bands is maximized.
