00:13:36.320all, the eeriest part was in November of 2019, the United Nations said global emissions needed
00:13:44.420to drop 7% per year in order to meet the UN Paris climate commitment. And boom, lockdowns happened
00:13:51.580in 2020. And in December of 2020, the UN reported that global emissions had dropped 7% because of
00:14:00.740the lockdowns. So it was almost as if they called it and it happened. So the parallels here are
00:14:06.220amazing. You have your doctor in Canada, your Fauci, but we have our Fauci here. He has done
00:14:11.360in two separate peer-reviewed journals, Andrew said. He has merged COVID and climate, and he has
00:14:16.640said, infectious diseases are largely the result of human encroachment on nature aided by climate
00:14:23.880changes. He had this published in the New England Journal of Medicine, and your point is very valid
00:14:29.000when you say it's not some crackpot professor or a Greenpeace blogger we're making hay out of.
00:14:33.580We had 230 medical journals, the British Medical Journal, all say that the way to tackle climate change, we need to follow the template that we used for COVID.
00:14:43.060And we all know what that template was, authoritarian public health bureaucracy.
00:14:48.980I mentioned earlier on that, you know, there's a tremendous hypocrisy in a lot of people on this.
00:14:55.320And we saw, I think it was, again, going back to March, April, some people celebrating how great it was for the climate, that no cars were on the street, that businesses were shut down.
00:15:05.300And there is something quite cynical in that.
00:15:08.680When I mentioned earlier, I don't know if you were on at the time, about how what these people want is to completely eradicate industrialization, it is actually quite transparent.
00:15:18.520I mean, one example of this is how net zero used to be.
00:22:36.620It was this historic. They literally came out and announced that it wasn't enough. It was woefully inadequate. And guess what? The world needs saving all over again.
00:22:44.700So we heard all the tipping points. Same thing just happened yesterday in the United States there, Andrew.
00:22:49.680We had the Inflation Reduction Act last summer, unfortunately, because one U.S. Democrat Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia caved because Bill Gates got involved and he got promised all sorts of sweetheart deals for his district, for his state.
00:23:02.240That was hailed as a planet-saving measure that was essentially the Green New Deal by another name.
00:23:10.140And now they've reintroduced the Green New Deal by saying that the Inflation Reduction Act wasn't enough.
00:24:49.680And just because we were talking about John Kerry, I have to share this little clip again.
00:24:54.040This was from January when I decided I would ask John Kerry about the big China-sized elephant in the room on climate.
00:25:03.480And to give a little bit of context here, here's a guy who takes the private jets all around the world
00:25:08.740to tell everyone that we shouldn't board planes because it's bad for the climate.
00:25:12.240And then he shakes hands with Chinese leaders.
00:25:16.020He shakes hands with the Venezuelan dictator Maduro.
00:25:19.160He shakes hands with all these people because he says they're partners in climate.
00:25:22.320Well, China is the great victor of our reduction of emissions because China just adds more coal, adds more production, adds more industrialization, makes huge money.
00:25:34.000Well, we're all trying to figure out how to get our battery working in minus 30 weather.
00:25:38.580So I asked or tried to ask John Kerry about the China issue. Take a look.
00:25:44.620Why should anyone else in the world have to deal with emissions reductions when China is not?
00:25:49.100you you can't speak about china's impact sir why should we have to deal with carbon prices when
0.64
00:25:56.120china is not lowering its emissions absolutely you're between me and him it's okay
00:26:02.180i don't know if i can call that i don't know if i can call that an interview per se because
00:26:14.120you know he didn't actually say anything I did get lovely footage of the two bodyguards one of
00:26:19.720which tried to like go and smack poor Sean with the camera there with her with her iPad and then
00:26:25.180the other guy that was telling me I had to keep my distance when he was between me and John Kerry so
00:26:29.620it's like I was already keeping enough distance and that was that and later I saw John Kerry
00:26:34.100palling around with the chef Jose Andres. Sean says precious memories so yeah we have to go back
00:26:40.620to Davos again and ask him a question. Maybe we can get the John Kerry private jet next time
00:26:44.900instead of having a slum it on Air Canada with Christopher Freeland up in business class and
1.00
00:26:49.640Mark Carney and the president of BMO was up there. And the guy from the Great Big Sea,
00:26:55.380Alan Doyle, I think his name is. I don't know how Alan Doyle of Great Big Sea counts as a global
00:26:59.860elite that is flying in business class on the way back from Davos. That is like a tremendous
00:27:05.040injustice. So yeah, I like Great Big Sea, but if he can be a global elite in Davos, there's no reason
00:27:31.960And normally when you see the reporter,
00:27:34.480you can kind of see the top of the head
00:27:36.400of the person they're all following around.
00:27:38.500And in this case, I couldn't. So I get up there and realize that they're all trying to interview Greta Thunberg, who has made her way to Davos to tell everyone to use less in the way of emissions and whatever.
00:27:50.460And, you know, I actually don't get in on the whole anti-Greta Thunberg train, the battery powered train, because I think she actually has her heart in the right place.
00:28:00.920I think she practices what she preaches, and she has been very reluctant to fly, for example.
00:28:05.900I think she took a boat to America once and generally doesn't do much travel.
00:28:09.860I don't look at her with any ill will.
00:28:12.900I look at all the people around her that have tried to prop her up and make her this poster child,
00:28:17.700and it doesn't escape me that she is a, what is she now, 20 or 21, and still looks like a teenager,
00:28:24.400which is why they're just, I mean, she's like the Gary Coleman of climate.
00:28:26.920She just looks like a child, so they're going to just keep trotting around until she's like a 50-year-old woman that's still running the same schtick.
00:28:34.120And you're like, wasn't she like skipping school for the last 45 years?
0.89
00:28:37.340And then you just sort of shrug your shoulders and move on.
00:28:40.180So nevertheless, that is it for the climate stuff.
00:28:43.620I do want to talk very briefly about the Great Pearson Airport heist.
00:28:51.380And I was talking about this with Rachel Emanuel on The Daily Brief today, which is a podcast you should subscribe to if you are not already.
00:28:59.420And I was like, there's a part of me that just because I like heist movies and heist shows, there's like a part of me that's like kind of rooting for the thieves, especially because it wasn't an armed robbery.
00:30:16.140And I would be remiss to not point out the 1952 gold heist from Moulton Airport, which was the precursor to Pearson Airport, a heist that was never sold, never $3.3 million.
