Ecosystems are Thriving and Prospering, Vegetation is Exploding
V.P. Harris cites climate ‘crisis,’ and pushed for $1B for floods, storms, and extreme heat. They are pushing for economic suicide to save the planet that doesn’t need to be saved.
WATCH: Kamala Harris announces $1 billion to states for floods, extreme heat.
The “Inflation Reduction Act” will most likely become law by the end of the week, which will just add to inflation and really hurt us economically because the thing that they’ve got in here for “green energy” is everything but green. When they talk about renewable energy they don’t talk about what’s called the Levelized cost of energy. They don’t look at the entire life cycle. This bill is a disaster.
Interview with CLIMATE CHANGE ANALYST: Gregory Wrightstone.
They [Leftists] want us to use wind and solar, which are unbelievably expensive for the amount of BTUs created.
“… And all of these enormous, absolutely incredibly enormous natural gas reserves, we can’t get the gas out because all these pipelines are being shut down by permitting problems and mainly lawsuits from environmental companies. They’re being shut down.” – Gregory Wrightstone
“And we’re going to spend a lot of money, have a lot of inflation, and have a lot of disappointment at the end of the day when this is all said and done.” – John Rush
“Your listenersare being sold a bill of goods on this, and they’re being lied to on a daily basis about climate change. And it’s my mission in life, It’s my mission to expose, the fallacies of climate alarmism.” – Gregory Wrightstone
How the stimulus increased demand and pulled the prices up, how regulations can increase costs for consumers, and last but certainly not least, they focused on how energy can drive prices up through the entire supply chain. All of these factors combined contributed to inflation growing faster than wages, which eats away at the purchasing power of the American consumer.
Rising Inflation From Covid Stimulus, Regulations, and Energy Costs.
“When you look at the overall cost of energy prices, they have increased over 40% as of June. And when you look at the energy and transportation costs, this is really hurting the low-income consumer who has less disposable income to begin with. And when you break it down by income group, the increased cost in energy and transportation amount to almost 80% of expenses households under $15,000 and yes, that’s a lower threshold, but it’s a massive increase for the people who really can afford it the least.” – Tirzah Duren
“I’m just kind of a common sense guy that you could look at what was happening all the way back from the beginning of Covid and some of the stimulus things we were doing, the shutting down of industries and so on. I mean, if you looked at all of that, to me it was just a sign that buckle up, you’re going to see inflation like we haven’t seen in quite a long time. And the reality is we’re here. It happened.” – John Rush

EV vs Your Current Vehicle and Biden’s Energy Policy
The Biden Administration is hurting America’s Energy Independence
John and some guests have made the connection between restricting energy production in the US with high gas prices as a way for the Leftists to advance their radical agenda in transforming America away from freedom and into one of socialism and communism.
Biden’s Energy Policies Enable Putin’s Russia While UN Decries Global Threat from Climate Change
As Vladimir Putin’s forces unleash mayhem on Ukrainian cities and villages, the United Nations has chosen this moment in history to warn the world of impending doom – not from Putin’s tanks and missiles, but from manmade climate change.
“Climate change is killing people,” said Helen Adams, King’s College London and co-author of the latest UN report on climate change, released four days after Russian tanks rolled into Ukraine.
The Biden administration shares this view.
It takes a lot of money to invade a country the size of Ukraine, and the Biden administration has been bankrolling Russia and China by suppressing fossil-fuel production in the U.S., thereby driving up the global price of oil and natural gas to the benefit of oil and gas exporter Russia and to the benefit of China, which has a tight grip on the materials that go into wind turbines and solar panels
Biden is determined to force-feed Americans in the name of combating climate change.

The planet is improving, not in spite of increasing CO2 and rising temperature, but because of it. The very framework of the climate-catastrophe argument is being confronted with scientific facts.
“I talked earlier today about what’s coming out now, finally, as this overpopulation bomb and the fact that that’s been dispelled and the reality is that never came to fruition. And it was really one of the biggest lies foisted upon mankind. And what I said, Gregory, was climate change, global warming, whatever you want to call it, I believe down the road is going to be in the same situation.” ~ John Rush
“Oh, absolutely. And if we look at, I mean, I look at, I’m a geologist, so I look at the big picture and we’re being told, aren’t we, that “Oh, my God. We can’t let it get a degree and a half or two degrees warmer or there’s going to be famine.” Right? Nasty population. Everything imaginable is going to go wrong. Well as a geologist, Again, I look back. What’s happened over the last five or 6,000 years since the first-grade civilizations arose. What happened whenever temperatures got to those levels? Well, I’ll tell you what happened. Humanity and the Euros ecosystem thrived. Food was abundant with great abundance during periods that were warmer than today.” – Gregory Wrightstone
CLIMATE CHANGE ANALYST: Gregory Wrightstone, is a geologist and the Executive Director of the CO2 Coalition in Arlington Virginia. He is the bestselling author of the book “Inconvenient Facts: The Science That Al Gore Doesn’t Want You to Know.”
BIO: Gregory Wrightstone is a geologist with more than 35 years of studying the Earth’s processes. He earned a bachelor’s degree from Waynesburg University and a master’s from West Virginia University, both in the field of geology. He has presented the results of his research around the world, including India, Ireland, and China.
Gregory’s book was the result of a quest for the truth about climate change — a subject uncritically reported by the mainstream media of an Earth lurching inexorably toward climate apocalypse. Contrary to the hyperbole of climate alarmists, Wrightstone’s review of the science provides the historical context of the Earth that shows clearly that rising temperatures and increasing carbon dioxide are benefiting both the planet and the human condition.
