In The Tank

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Justin Haskins, and Chris Talgo present episode 426 of the In The Tank Podcast. The COP28 Climate Summit begins its second week of events and there is a lot to talk about. UAE Sultan Al Jaber has stirred up a hornets nest by questioning the climate cult, Climate Czar John Kerry admits to becoming "more militant," and Al Gore is becoming increasingly unhinged. Is this climate narrative coming unglued? Or are we beginning to see an even more authoritarian push for climate action?

PRIMARY TOPIC – CLIMATE CHANGE RHETORIC BECOMING “MORE MILITANT”
