WHO To Declare Climate Emergency? - In The Tank #425

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 425 of the In The Tank Podcast. With the global climate conference, COP28, starting this week, global warming rhetoric is being ramped up into high gear. Last week, over 200 medical journals called on the World Health Organization to declare an "immediate emergency" on the topic of climate change. Factor this rhetoric into the growing calls for the censorship of misinformation and you have yourself the recipe for overt authoritarianism.
