00:01:21.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:44.000For our audience that isn't covering it carefully or closely, what is COP28 and the news made in the last couple of days?
00:01:51.000Okay, so COP28 stands for Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Concerning Climate Change.
00:01:59.000And essentially, this is the organization that leads global policy every year.
00:02:04.000So this is where the Paris Climate Agreement was formed.
00:02:07.000And every year they basically get together and they say, How can we eliminate fossil fuels faster?
00:02:13.000And every year they're very frustrated because even though they have restricted fossil fuels, they've done a lot of damage.
00:02:18.000They've helped create a global energy crisis by creating shortages of fossil fuels.
00:02:21.000They always think they haven't done enough.
00:02:23.000And so this year, once again, they're saying, hey, how do we rapidly eliminate fossil fuels to, quote, save the climate?
00:02:29.000Not realizing that because fossil fuels are so amazingly beneficial overall, including to our safety from climate, that rapidly eliminating them just means destroying the world as we know it.
00:02:40.000I want you to respond to Hillary Clinton here.
00:02:46.000We're seeing and beginning to pay attention and to count and record the deaths that are related to climate.
00:02:54.000And by far, the biggest killer is extreme heat.
00:02:57.000We don't have that kind of number yet from Africa, Asia, Latin America, but we know and estimate that we probably could measure about 500,000 deaths.
00:03:10.000And the majority of those are women and girls, and particularly pregnant women.
00:03:18.000I don't know what she means we're beginning to measure.
00:03:20.000We've been measuring climate-related disaster deaths for, I mean, we have 100 years plus of data, and it's unequivocally clear that the rate of disaster death, so from storms and floods and extreme temperatures, has gone down by a factor of 50.
00:03:46.000And then in terms of the women and girls, this is particularly perverse because fossil fuels have been the greatest liberator of women and girls.
00:03:53.000They actually allow people to have machines so that women aren't having drudgery all the time so they can get education.1.00
00:03:58.000So this is an exactly backwards narrative by somebody who's just totally ignorant of the basic data that's publicly available.
00:04:05.000I want to have you respond here to John Kerry.
00:04:08.000Is this the hottest year in human history that we've ever measured?
00:04:13.000Last summer, it was 70 degrees Fahrenheit above normal in the Arctic.
00:04:18.000It was 100 degrees Fahrenheit above normal in the Antarctic.
00:04:23.000So I'm not going to say more about it.
00:04:25.000Except to say that if we can't hear Mother Nature and can't judge with our own eyes what the science is telling us, this is not about politics.
00:06:13.000And Kerry doesn't know how to think about this issue.
00:06:15.000So all he does is look for negative side effects of fossil fuels and not benefits.
00:06:19.000And that leads you to terrible decisions.
00:06:21.000And just by saying math and science, which by the way, he knows nothing about, that's just sophistry camouflaging that he's not thinking about the issue in the most basically logical way.
00:06:31.000So the kind of climate alarmism that exists is obviously about eliminating fossil fuels and abolishing any sort of advantage the Western world enjoys.
00:07:27.000We're in a world where 3 billion people use less electricity than a typical American refrigerator.
00:07:32.000And the world is saying, let's get off fossil fuels as quickly as possible.
00:07:35.000So they really worship an unimpacted climate like a god, and they're sacrificing us to that.
00:07:40.000And it's a broader view just that human impact is bad.
00:07:43.000And our top priority should be to eliminate it.
00:07:45.000Now, in terms of Marxism and communism and more broadly statism, it's a dream come true for statists to have a villain that applies to everyone.
00:07:54.000So if CO2 is the villain, if climate change, so-called, is the villain from fossil fuels, that means they have the right to regulate every aspect of life.
00:08:02.000It's kind of like with COVID, some people loved the idea of a virus that anyone could carry and you could treat anyone as guilty until proven innocent because it allowed unlimited statism.
00:08:11.000And it's a similar dynamic for climate stuff.
00:08:14.000So let's play another piece of tape here.
00:08:26.000As vice president, I have partnered with Caribbean leaders, including Prime Minister Terrence Drew and Mia Motley and others to launch a new initiative to build climate resilience and renewable energy for island nations.
00:08:40.000Earlier this year, I was proud to be in Zambia, where we secured $7 billion in private sector investment for initiatives such as climate smart agriculture and renewable energy projects across the continent of Africa.
00:09:15.000Look how China, look how India, look how Japan, look how South Korea, they all developed using fossil fuels.
00:09:22.000As I've said, we're safer than ever from climate.
00:09:25.000We're incredibly climate resilient with fossil fuels.
00:09:28.000So how can you be when you talk about Zambia and the Caribbean, but particularly Zambia, these poor places, they need development as quickly as possible.
00:09:36.000You need to get the hell out of their way instead of telling them to do these ridiculous climate-smart things that nobody has ever developed from.
00:09:42.000Nobody probably ever will develop from.
00:09:59.000Yeah, so Fossil Future, check that out.

00:11:29.000So Alex, I'm going to do my best here to repeat some of the arguments I hear on campus.
00:11:34.000You're the expert on how to refute this.
00:11:37.000So it will be some kind of variety of this.
00:11:41.000An activist on campus will say, Charlie, why are you standing against the experts?
00:11:46.000The scientific consensus supposedly supports radical anti-carbon activism and divestment.
00:11:55.000And climate change is obviously man-made.
00:12:11.000The 97% consensus, insofar as it exists, is a consensus that we have some warming impact.
00:12:18.000That's not the same as a catastrophic warming impact.
00:12:21.000And it's not the same as an impact that justifies depriving billions of people of the benefits of fossil fuels, including all the climate benefits that make us far safer from climate.
00:12:31.000So then I guess the question I would have how to respond, and I guess we can go to your website, is how can you not know if climate change is happening?
00:12:42.000I guess they get into the idea of the solution, existential threat.
00:12:48.000Are we willing to concede that some of the raising global temperatures is man-made?
00:13:15.000So we have the most livable climate ever because we've had fairly minor changes in climate and we've had an enormous ability in our ability to, enormous increase in our ability to protect ourselves from climate.
00:13:26.000So what I'm, I think people need to factor in the benefits of energy when they think of climate, just like you would logically.
00:13:31.000Charlie, can you think of anyone, even a climate activist, who would rather live in the climate of 1900 versus today?
00:13:37.000I don't think so because that was an incredibly deadly climate, even though it was supposedly less changed by us.
00:13:43.000Yeah, and I guess that gets to the fundamental thing is the change is human beings being a pollutant on the Earth.
00:13:49.000That is kind of the moral question underneath, correct?
00:13:52.000Yeah, so the underlying assumption here is that all human impact is immoral.
00:13:57.000And then there's a further assumption that human impact is necessarily catastrophically self-destructive.
00:14:03.000This is why you get all these false catastrophe predictions because they just think anytime we impact Earth, it must be bad.
00:14:08.000We're these parasite polluters, as I describe it in Fossil Future.
00:14:22.000We should keep doing it more and more intelligently.
00:14:24.000But to act like we've destroyed the climate when we've actually neutralized so much of its danger and made the world much better, we shouldn't be guilty about that.
00:14:31.000And the fact that something comes from humans doesn't make it bad.
00:14:34.000If anything, we should assume it's good because we are humans and we should be proud of that.
00:14:38.000So you have these seven truths about our climate and energy future.
00:14:42.000I want to, you have this phrase that I like, energy poor.
00:14:45.000Elaborate on this idea of energy poor.
00:14:47.000Given the vast majority of the world is energy poor, the world needs far more energy as quickly as possible.
00:14:53.000If you think about in America, why are we so productive and prosperous?
00:14:56.000Because we have machines doing way more work than we do.
00:14:59.000The average American has the equivalent of 75 people's worth of machines.
00:15:03.000You can think of it as like 75 machine servants.
00:15:06.000We can only do that because we have energy that's low cost and reliable and versatile, powering every type of machine and scalable to a lot of people.
00:15:13.000So most of the world has very little machine labor working for them.
00:15:17.000So if you look at places I mentioned, we have 3 billion people using less electricity than a typical American refrigerator does.
00:15:23.000We have a third of the world using wood and animal dung.
00:15:25.000We have 6 billion people who use about a third or less of what we do.
00:15:29.000So we would consider that totally unacceptable.
00:15:31.000So yeah, the world is energy poor and you cannot be rich without being energy rich.
00:15:35.000The final one, how would you respond when people say that the rate of warming we've not seen the past 10,000 years?
00:15:43.000The earth is getting so much warmer and it's so troubling.
00:15:48.000So, again, we don't have good annual records going back very far.
00:15:51.000So, the thing is, we've had about one degree Celsius, two degrees Fahrenheit, in about 100 years in a world that in which far more people die from cold than from heat.
00:16:00.000If you look at the range of hypothetical warming that we could experience, and I talk about this in chapter nine of Fossil Future, you can also see it on energytalkingpoints.com.
00:16:08.000Like, even in the extreme warming scenarios, we'll be totally fine, and probably still more people will die from cold than from heat.
00:16:15.000So, the key thing here is there's this anti-human bias that says that if we impact things, it must be evil, it must be self-destructive.
00:16:23.000And that's really what I'm at war against.
00:16:25.000I want a pro-human way of thinking about these issues.
00:16:27.000When you look at the science and the economics from a pro-human perspective, it's very positive for fossil fuels.
00:16:43.000With the world quickly descending into chaos, the next medical crisis is just around the corner.
00:16:48.000Whether it's another pandemic or something closer to home, preparedness is no longer an option, it's a necessity.
00:16:54.000That's where the wellness company comes in.0.84
00:16:56.000From something innocent and natural, like a tick bite to COVID, to the next bioweapon manufacturer in a lab, the wellness company's medical emergency kit is what you need to be prepared.
00:17:05.000It contains life-saving medications like ivermectin, emergency antibiotics, a ZPAC, and more, as well as a guidebook to aid in the use of these life-saving medications.
00:17:16.000The Wellness Company and their doctors, including Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. James Thorpe, Dr. Harvey Riesch, Dr. Drupinski, and Dr. Robert Seek, and more are medical professionals that you can trust.
00:17:27.000Rest assured, knowing that you're ready for whatever the globalists throw at us next.
00:17:31.000To order this kit, which I use and I have ready at disposal, everybody.
00:17:35.000I'm not here to give medical advice, but it is the gold standard: TWC.health/slash Charlie.
00:18:33.000I want to start with the first one: that to an untrained eye, you would think that there is a new virus that is emerging and hitting children, especially in America.
00:18:41.000Some people are calling it white lung syndrome.
00:18:45.000Yeah, I mean, from the data that I've seen and the reports that I've reviewed, I mean, what seems to be happening in China is something really happened here last year.
00:18:54.000I mean, last year in the fall, early winter season, we saw this huge surge in RSV and flu, which we hadn't seen before.
00:19:03.000And I think they're seeing the same in China, but they're also seeing mycoplasma, which is actually a bacterial infection.
00:19:09.000And so they're seeing this sudden surge in cases of respiratory illnesses.
00:19:14.000I don't think this is a new unidentified pathogen.
00:19:17.000Charlie, if this was a new virus or a new bacteria or something weird that was coming on, like I hate to say it, a new bioweapon, we have sophisticated technology that could identify what it is and what its characteristics are.
00:19:30.000This is really just a surge in respiratory illnesses.
00:19:32.000Now, I'll ask the question for you, Charlie, but why would this be happening in China right now?
00:20:21.000It's the prolonged lockdowns with the fact that now you have a population that was mass vaccinated against a respiratory virus and they're now succumbing to others.
00:20:29.000Is it conceivable that the vaccine has suppressed immunity, meaning it makes it harder for a person to be able to create antibodies and have a robust immune system?
00:20:42.000Is there any data to suggest that, especially the mRNA shot?
00:20:48.000Immunologists, virologists, vaccinologists know this, especially around this COVID vaccine.
00:20:55.000It induces several forms of immunosuppression, and it also kind of trains the immune system to direct against a certain virus and not others.
00:21:04.000And so it's altered immune systems that are leaving you at higher risk of other infections.
00:21:11.000So the media, I will say that the CDC has come out and they say, we don't see a new pathogen.
00:21:17.000You know, this is not necessarily out of the ordinary.
00:21:20.000RSV and pneumonia and flu and COVID are going up slightly.
00:21:26.000And I guess the question in front of us, they're already pushing, I mean, this Travis Kelsey commercial is ridiculous.
00:21:32.000You know, you can get two shots in one.
00:21:35.000And are we creating this almost vaccine-dependent society where our immune system is so suppressed that it's not about losing weight, vitamin D, any of that stuff?
00:21:48.000And I'm afraid it's creating a permanently sicker type society.
00:21:54.000And it's also getting into pediatric circles where they're now pushing the COVID shot for my one-year-old.
00:22:08.000It's hurting the overall health of our population, especially the young people.
00:22:13.000This monolithic, obsessive response to everything with a vaccine is not sound.
00:22:20.000I like that you just mentioned things like vitamin D and nutrition.
00:22:23.000I mean, there are much more sensible things that we can do that don't bring with it harms, that they're generally safe and bring about improvements to health.
00:22:32.000I mean, even if you believe that these vaccines against rapidly mutating respiratory viruses was a good idea, the downsides of them have to be considered.
00:22:42.000And that's what we're talking about today.
00:22:43.000That's what we're seeing across the world.
00:22:45.000And what's happening in China has happened in many other countries.
00:22:48.000And like I gave you the example, it happened in the U.S. last year.
00:22:50.000I mean, my organization, right, the FLCCC, we came together and we put together a repurposed drug protocol for RSV and flu a year ago because of this massive surge that we saw coming out of the first two years of the COVID pandemic of those other viruses, which is not unexpected.
00:23:40.000And I hate to be cynical, but I think that Dr. Corey, you're on the same page.
00:23:44.000I don't get the impression from Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson, and Johnson that they want a healthy society.
00:23:50.000It's almost the sicker we are, the more money they stand to make.
00:23:55.000And regardless of the, you know, let's say lack of information.
00:23:59.000I have lost complete trust of the CDC, the NIH.
00:24:01.000I know you have too, and how you are covering ivermectin.
00:24:06.000I suppose the pharmaceutical companies look at people like, you know, just regular citizens as potential annuity, lifetime type customers, that the more that they could suppress the immune system, the more money they can make from us.
00:24:18.000I am encouraged that there has been almost a revival in a health consciousness amongst the American citizenry.
00:24:25.000And I will say a lot of people aren't necessarily falling for this white lung syndrome thing.
00:24:29.000The China news had some people on edge, though, Dr. Corey, because obviously, you know, what we saw from the last roundabout, what, if anything, should we be on the lookout front?
00:24:42.000They're still pushing the booster, 86% of people not taking the booster.
00:24:58.000You know, one of the things I realized, every time I get too cynical, I actually find out in retrospect that I'm still being naive.
00:25:05.000I mean, the complete capture of our public health agency by industry completely explains all of their policies, right?
00:25:13.000Which is just vaccinate, vaccinate, vaccinate.
00:25:16.000And I like that you mentioned that people were on edge with this news out of China, but let me just say that's the third facet that I didn't talk about, right?
00:25:23.000So it's the effect of prolonged lockdowns, mass vaccination.
00:25:26.000And then let's go back to, I guess, the term that we use is fear porn, right?
00:25:30.000That actually, to me, this is as cynical as I can get.
00:25:33.000It's literally marketing to, by using fear to get people to show up for more vaccines.
00:25:40.000It's just vaccinate, vaccinate, vaccinate.
00:25:42.000And that's where that cynicism comes in because it's divorced from science.
00:25:46.000It's divorced from pragmatic, sound medical advice.
00:26:08.000We cannot trust our agencies anymore because they're literally working in the service of a pharmaceutical industry.
00:26:15.000And we need to come up with different solutions.
00:26:18.000So I think what you're seeing, what I'm seeing is a lot of people now taking more individual responsibility for their health and now looking to unconflicted sources, for instance, like my organization, where we don't sell anything.
00:26:30.000We don't take money through everything.
00:27:28.000So we were, you know, what Steve was able to do with this data set is actually really track dates of vaccination, dates of death, rates of death according to batches.
00:27:40.000Now, there have been many people, even sort of in our movement, you know, the medical dissent movement, who've questioned, been skeptical on the data.
00:27:47.000I think there are limitations in the data, but the best analysis of this data is: number one, it fits completely with what we've seen from numerous other data sources in terms of the amount of mortality and deaths that it's causing.
00:28:02.000Number two, New Zealand has not denied that it was manipulated.
00:28:25.000And they knew that that was going to happen.
00:28:26.000They were willing to do it because they saw really alarming signals from the data.
00:28:31.000And I think it's the most rigorous data because all that we've seen, right?
00:28:36.000So life insurance industry data, we didn't have vaccination status.
00:28:39.000All we could do is correlate with vaccines, unprecedented levels of mortality.
00:28:43.000We saw it in epidemiology, death rate statistics across countries, how you saw it totally go correlated with vaccination campaigns.
00:28:50.000But here's a robust data set where you can actually drill down and see a patient's vaccination status, their date, and their death, and their death rates.
00:31:20.000So, Dr. Corey, I want to ask you, in your professional opinion, we see this story a lot.
00:31:24.000I know there's been a lot of reporting on it and a lot of speculation, but it just is a pattern that is not letting up, which is otherwise very healthy athletes that are just dropping inexplicably.
00:31:36.000We saw one, a University of Minnesota football player, University of Minnesota Duluth.
00:32:15.000I've published some of them looking at the society of actuary reports.
00:32:19.000And you're seeing these massive spikes in the healthiest strata of society historically that we've never seen before, unprecedented.
00:32:28.000So for instance, in the third quarter of 2021, you saw a rise, and I think it was between 25 and 44-year-olds, white-collar employed 25 to 44-year-olds.
00:32:39.000You saw this massive rise in death claims in the group life and health insurance data.
00:32:46.000A 10% rise year to year, Charlie, is a one in 200-year event.
00:32:50.000A 38 to 40 to sometimes 60% rise in certain strata is unprecedented.
00:32:56.000So if you're wondering if these repeated newspaper reports of young people dying in their sleep, dying on ball fields, dying in athletic competitions is just like a one-off and a strange, rare event and that we're over-interpreting it, then someone needs to explain to me why that's totally supported in young people dying at rates that have never ever been reported historically.
00:33:20.000Yeah, and it's so sad because you see these otherwise very healthy people that are just dropping and one after the other, and it's not isolated and it seems to be a pattern.
00:33:32.000And we're willing to look at that pattern and ask a very simple question.
00:33:43.000So I wrote a long series of subsects on that.
00:33:46.000What I will say is with gene therapy products, of which these vaccines clearly are meeting FDA definitions of gene therapy products, they also fit into a category of what's called nanoparticle technology, right?
00:33:59.000So these were mRNA delivered in lipid nanoparticles.
00:34:03.000They are known to have a risk of shedding.
00:34:06.000There's FDA documents saying that shedding studies must be done, not only in humans, but in animals.
00:34:12.000There are other similar gene therapy products, which in their inserts say that there is a risk of shedding in secretions and dressings, you know, a week after the injection.
00:34:22.000We know with these vaccines, it can be weeks to months afterwards.
00:34:26.000And then there's just innumerable clinical evidence.
00:34:30.000I treat patients who have long COVID and long vaccine and we have a cohort of our patients who, when they're exposed to crowds or to certain other vaccinated people, their adverse effects get worse.
00:34:43.000Luckily, I think it's restricted to minority of very physiologically or environmentally sensitive people, but we don't have real good data on it.0.98
00:34:50.000But I'll tell you, Charlie, there's a study coming out where they actually exposed 100 women who are unvaccinated to 100 vaccinated women.
00:34:58.000And they looked at an outcome, any changes or abnormalities in menstrual cycles.
00:35:03.000And because that is the most common shedding symptom is women being exposed to others who are vaccinated.0.50
00:35:09.000And that's going to be coming out soon.
00:35:10.000I can't tell you about the results, but it is reaching the end of peer review.
00:35:14.000And I think it's going to be quite shocking when you find out what they found.
00:35:17.000Dr. Corey, just plug your deal, a website, book for our audience, please.
