Debunking Climate Hysteria, Sept. 8, 2026

By September 8, 2026Commentary2 min read

Why is it important to debunk climate hysteria?  Because the world is spending trillions of dollars on a non-existent problem, including many countries ruining their economies by forcing dependence on expensive and unreliable “renewable” energy sources.  So I will keep trying to set the record straight.  Aside from the world burning up, the other scare tactic is all the ice in Antartica and Greenland is melting and will flood the world.  At least that will put the fires out.   As usual the facts are at odds with the hysterical narrative.   The Antarctic peninsual is the warmest part of Antarctica, which is very warm.  Even the alarmist can’t find any sign of warming elsewhere in Antarctica.

A new study finds that there actually has been very little ice mass loss on the Antarctica peninsula in the last few decades, in fact, until five years ago there was essentially none.  But nonetheless the authors pay homage to the hysterics by claiming that we are about to see a lot more mass loss.  That is literally hysterical, as their data and much longer term data shows natural cycling of ice mass on Antarctica.  No need to think that your property in the Midwest will suddenly be prime beachfront.  (GRU Study)

    The west Antarctic Ice shelf melting has been one of the major talking points for the activists. What is buried in the reports of the West Antarctic ice shelf melting is the geothermal activity in the region.

    I’d like to see some alternative viewpoints on the Thwaites Glacier. That’s seems to be the focal point of the left wing scare tactics right now.

    • Kevin Roche says:

      the hysterics are claiming that recent ice mass gains are due to ocean warming causing more precipitation. Shortly we are going to see a reversal of warming, and several years of cooling. Not sure what the hysterics will do then.
