Dire Straits

from The Climate Discussion Nexus

Dr. John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with more apparently surprising news about how disruptions in world trade affect "renewables" as well as oil and gas, more apparently surprising news that the US network of temperature monitoring stations are poorly placed and even more poorly maintained, blaming CO2 for El Niño's predicted impacts and BC salmon alleged being hammered by habitat loss, pollution, stuff and oh also climate change, moving on to there still being no energy transition, more meetings on climate as if none had ever been held, asking why Roger Pielke Jr. still keeps one foot, or toe, in the climate alarmist camp, and Heatmap cheering for China, and wrapping up with another installment in our #DOEDeepDive into last summer's "red team" climate report from the U.S. Department of Energy, this time on Extreme Event Attribution, a man-made water crisis in the US southwest because people forgot droughts are natural there, and from the CO2 archive Avicennia marina being a plant not a marina, and one that loves CO2.To support the Climate Discussion Nexus, subscribe to our YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_egd..., our Rumble channel (https://rumble.com/user/ClimateDN), our newsletter (at http://www.climatediscussionnexus.com/) and our podcast on Spotify, like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and Gettr, and make a monthly or one-time pledge at http://www.climatediscussionnexus.com…
