Heartland Daily Podcast

It’s climate week in New York City, yet another expensive and carbon-intensive gathering of global chicken littles clucking about the end of the world. More than 6,000 attendees from more than 100 countries converged on the Big Apple to coincide with the United Nations General Assembly Meeting, all the better to coordinate efforts to stop climate change by taking your freedom and money. But is Climate Week losing its cache and are there cracks in support for achieving goals like Net Zero?

The Heartland Institute’s H. Sterling Burnett, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely will investigate on Episode #128 of The Climate Realism Show. We will also cover Hurricane Helene, how foolish it would be to have an electric car in the path of that storm, the United Kingdom depending on the same kinds of flawed temperature stations the US does, how climate change is not threatening your daily cup of coffee, and more.
