Steve Milloy #416

from Tom Nelson · host Thomas Nelson

Steve Milloy reviews Trump’s fossil-fuel agenda, EPA rollback of the 2009 endangerment finding, and concerns that litigation delays and Justice Department staffing could let a future Democratic administration reverse course. The speaker attacks the National Academy of Sciences as climate activists, cites a climate chapter in a judges’ science manual, notes Elena Kagan said she didn’t read it, and urges cutting NAS funding. They praise Matt Wielicki’s appointment to lead the U.S. Global Change Research Program. They argue wildfire-smoke PM2.5 health scares lacked NYC hospital spikes, criticize linear no-threshold regulation (radiation, PFAS), and discuss Yucca Mountain standards. They describe shareholder activism against corporate ESG (Netflix, Exxon), criticize carbon capture subsidies, and praise young “climate realist” advocates. 00:00 Trump EPA Rollbacks 01:37 NAS Versus Trump 04:16 Defunding NAS Push 06:30 Kagan Foreword Controversy 08:24 Climate Realist Appointment 09:43 Democrats And Green Money 11:59 Big Tech Climate Censorship 13:21 X Algorithms And Reach 16:10 Viral Tweet No Warming 18:20 Wildfire Smoke Reality Check 22:30 EPA PM2.5 Experiments 26:12 LNT Model And Hormesis 30:18 Yucca Mountain Absurdity 32:37 PFAS And Low Dose Effects 33:37 Forever Chemicals Are Inert 34:41 Dose Makes the Poison 36:34 Parts Per Trillion Panic 37:31 Why Fear Spreads 38:06 Conservative Shareholder Activism 41:07 Exxon and ESG Battles 42:23 Carbon Capture Reality Check 43:53 Subsidies and Nanny Government 45:31 Next Gen Climate Realists 47:43 Awards and Staying the Course 50:31 NASA Names and Media Retreat 56:01 Debate Challenge and Wrap Up Steve on X: https://x.com/JunkScience Web: https://junkscience.com/ ========= Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1
