Climate Misanthropes Say Fighting Climate Change is More important than Food, Reliable Energy, and Peace

Guest Blogger — Mon, 25 Apr 2022 13:00:00 +0000

Peoples around the world face many more immediate, pressing, and deadly problems than climate change. That is an indisputable fact. It’s immoral and inhumane for the media to keep giving climate alarmists a platform to claim otherwise.

The Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), a period of extremely rapid global warming which occurred 10 million years after the demise of the dinosaurs, was supposed to have been an ocean catastrophe. Instead, even temperate climate fish treated the warmth like a tropical food buffet.
