We’re supposed to believe that water from polar ice sheet and glacier melting caused by human-caused global warming flows into the oceans and spreads toward the equator, shifting “mass away from Earth’s poles,” slowing the rotation.
"For nearly 40 years, the global warming cabal has spread fear and wasted resources on an emergency that doesn’t exist. While their influence has begun to wane, as their credibility has crashed and their lies have been exposed, the fabrications, exaggerations, and junk science continue. How much longer must we endure their campaign of rancid propaganda?
"The dawning moment of the global warming movement was NASA scientist James Hansen’s June 1988 testimony before the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee.
“'In my opinion,” he told lawmakers, “the greenhouse effect has been detected, and it is changing our climate now.”
There was evidence, he insisted, “that the Earth is warming by an amount which is too large to be a chance fluctuation and the similarity of the warming to that expected from the greenhouse effect represents a very strong case.”
"And yet 38 years later, there’s been no climate catastrophe.

Soon thereafter, a man was arrested in connection with one of the three fires burning through Spokane County and has been questioned in arson investigations into other fires. And as our friends at Power Line have noted, wildfire damage in terms of acres burned peaked nearly a century ago and, in fact, is down more than 80%.
"NPR wants Americans to believe “climate change is now threatening a pillar of childhood: summer break,” which has become “increasingly dangerous through heat, wildfire smoke, floods, and storms.” Retired meteorologist Anthony Watts says “the premise is false, ridiculous even,” with NPR relying “almost entirely on anecdotes rather than evidence.”
“What has changed is not that summer suddenly became dangerous. What has changed is the media’s insistence on framing ordinary weather challenges as catastrophic symptoms of dangerous climate change.” . . . More...
Does Climate Change Cause Forest Fires? | Power Line . . . "If “climate change” doesn’t cause forest fires, what does? Arsonists. The recent fires in Spain and France appear to have been deliberately set, and the same is true for the fire near Spokane that former Governor Jay Inslee blamed on “climate change.”. . .
