Nothing To Xi Here Folks

Dr. John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with the chattering classes in the West making excuse after excuse for Communist China including on climate, fatuous praise and concerns for Mark Carney's "climate competitiveness", more on Carney's high-flying hypocrisy and vacuity, moving on to the Philippines protecting the most "climate resilient" corals when you'd think they'd protect the vulnerable ones, real progress cleaning up the Chicago River by focusing on real pollution, claims that you can't run a marathon if it's 86F, Michael Mann stepping down or being pushed as University of Pennsylvania "Vice Provost for Climate Science", and claims of exceptional drought that happens a lot, and wrapping up with a #HaveItBothWays installment on plants spewing methane, the models exaggerating Greenland ice melting, and from the CO2Science archive evidence that a plant with the absurd name of Darwin Woollybutt might not like CO2 very much.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...You can also now buy CDN merchandise at https://climatediscussionnexus.com/st...
