A peer-reviewed study finds that most of the temperature rise observed over the past century in the US isn't from greenhouse gases, but instead from roads, buildings and parking lots.
By comparing raw US temperature data from stations in areas with different population densities, the study found that 65% of the warming since 1895 is explained by the urban heat island effect, and another 8% by urban growth into once-rural areas.
That's nearly three quarters of the warming, with no CO2 involved.
Crucially, NOAA's adjusted data hides this effect. Homogenization smooths it out, a process the study's author, Dr Roy Spencer, calls "urban blending."
It's not "global warming," it's urbanization.
“[On any War Powers vote], I expect there'll be overwhelming Republican support for our troops, and for the president's decision to finally eliminate the threat of Iran.
And I would invite Democrats in the Congress to join their Democratic colleagues like John Fetterman and Josh Gottheimer and Greg Landsman in supporting our troops, in finally putting America's foot down against the Islamic Republic of Iran.” -@SenTomCotton
BREAKING - Iranians in Canada showed up to the American Consulate in Toronto to lay flowers for the three fallen U.S. troops lost in Operation Epic Fury.
They are more American than most Democrats.
Ten men, every single one of Pakistani migrant background, were convicted today in a British court for attempting to murder a mother and her 13-year-old daughter by petrol-bombing their Stoke-on-Trent home in 2021.
The gang demanded one man, then doused the house in petrol and set the mother on fire in front of her child. The 31-year-old mother suffered 65% burns and was in a two-month coma. The 13-year old girl suffered 15% burns. Both forced to jump from a first-floor window.
This wasn’t “youths” or “Asians”. The perpetrators were identified as Shakil Uddin, Lukman Khan, Riyadh Iqbal, Muhammad Sufyaan-Shah, Tayyeb Majeed, Ali Abbas, Haris Mahmood, Naveed Hussain, Kashif & Bilal Ahmed.
Not the first time Democrats have chanted for the KKK…
They’ve been doing it since at least the 1924 Democratic National Convention…
And back when they were pro slavery in the Civil War.
“Prayer is that act by which man seeks to enter into fellowship with God.” Prayer is absolutely crucial. Take time to read this from my father @BillyGraham about the power of prayer for the nations.

Einstein said to Chaplin: “What I most admire about your art, is your universality. You don’t say a word, yet the world understands you!”.
"It’s true”, replied Chaplin. “But your fame is even greater: the world admires you, when nobody understands what you say."
- Albert Einstein and Charlie Chaplin, 1931
The Earth's climate of the 1790s was brutal for humanity due to a mega El Niño. More than 1% of global population perished
The entire world was in upheaval from drought and heat waves, and even Caribbean hurricanes.

Net zero is both meaningless & pointless & many now realise it, like Donald Trump & now Bill Gates. Warming projections have failed. No-one on earth can see the ocean rise or climate related disasters. Even if it warmed a degree of two, it would still be several degrees cooler than long term historic levels (19-22 degrees versus today's 15 degrees). The entire cash cow enterprise is based on distortions, especially the inflated role of CO₂ in the 'future', or inflated global warming, or disasters from a 1 or 2 degree temperature change (which can't be measured).
Mankind exists in a comfortable interglacial Holocene period within the larger Quaternary glaciation, a continuation of the Pleistocene epoch. The current ice age, the Quaternary Ice Age, began approximately 2.6 million years ago & the last glacial maximum occurred 26,000 to 20,000 years ago, when global sea levels were about 400 feet lower than today and ice sheets covered 25% of the Earth's land area. This includes large ice sheets over Europe and North America. Because so much water was locked up in glaciers, global sea levels were approximately 125 meters (410 feet) lower than present day levels.

Unbelievable.
Tens of thousands of acres of protected Amazon rainforest were cleared to build a four-lane highway for COP30.
They all flew in on their private jets and lecture all of us that we are terrible people for driving gas powered cars. These people are stealing our money with the promise of better weather. It’s criminal.
🚨 BREAKING: THE SKY JUST SPLIT OPEN - TAAL VOLCANO ERUPTS IN THE PHILIPPINES
A colossal black cloud just blasted out of Taal Lake shaking the ground and turning daylight to darkness.
Experts confirmed it was a phreatomagmatic eruption, a violent explosion caused when magma meets water sending ash raining for miles as towns evacuate in chaos.
The blast was so powerful it was seen from space. Officials are calling it “the biggest eruption of the decade.”
What the hell is waking up beneath the Earth?
