Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.
00:00:06.780
Well, global climate change, formerly known as global warming, has been a talking point
00:00:12.680
Some Marxist Dems even putting an expiration date on Earth.
00:00:15.980
One year, five years, 12 years, we're all going to die.
00:00:20.620
Are we really going to take Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's word for it?
00:00:25.600
Up until a few years ago, she was working as a bartender, and I'm not saying that degradingly.
00:00:32.440
But what does AOC know about climate change or anything for that matter, and why should
00:00:40.060
It's warming at an average rate of 0.11 degrees Fahrenheit per decade since 1850.
00:00:45.520
For those of you like me that don't like math, that's two degrees in total of warming in
00:00:53.780
Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democrat nominee who once championed herself as a climate change
00:00:58.180
warrior has been really silent of late, and it's concerning me, and it should concern
00:01:03.920
To ease all of our nerves, I asked a real climate expert to join us today to tell us what the
00:01:09.200
He's Mark Morano, the publisher of ClimateDepot.com.
00:01:18.000
When is the world going to end from this existential threat of climate change?
00:01:22.340
Well, you know, we're already, we've already, we're all dead.
00:01:27.880
1989, the UN top official gave it 10 years before rising seas would swamp nations and end
00:01:37.380
We have a James, the key leading NASA global warming scientist, when Obama was elected in
00:01:44.140
2008, said we only had four years to save the planet.
00:01:47.580
My favorite was Prince Charles, who actually issued a 100-month climate tipping point.
00:01:53.460
We had 100 months to save, and he actually counted down, 88 months, 72 months.
00:02:03.200
No, he came up with a new, yeah, we were all still alive.
00:02:05.340
And he scratched out the 100-month deadline and then gave us a new one of like 2046, which
00:02:11.080
given his genes, his mother lived like 100 or almost 100 or 100, he may actually make
00:02:17.900
In my book, Green Fraud, I went back to Abraham Lincoln, 1864, when he was president, there
00:02:24.420
was an academic named George Marsh Perkins, who warned of climatic excess unless mankind
00:02:31.760
So I think it's just hardwired into our system to A, predict doom, and B, essentially, it's
00:02:38.260
a salesman tactic that like, you know, I hate to say anything bad happened to your store.
00:02:46.180
We got to go full Marxist, and we can take over, and your store will be just fine.
00:02:52.060
They use these climate tipping points, which are just comically absurd, unscientific, nonsensical,
00:03:01.780
And they use that to push as a hard sell the Green New Deal, cap and trade, carbon taxes,
00:03:08.960
Inflation Reduction Act, climate emergency declaration, whatever it is that they want to do.
00:03:13.340
You know, over the last few years, it seems, and this is a phrase that, one of my favorite
00:03:20.520
Why did nobody think when we started taking climate advice from a 12-year-old girl named
00:03:24.560
Greta Thunberg that there was something going on here, and we weren't heading into the right
00:03:30.060
I mean, am I overlooking that, or am I spot on?
00:03:34.280
No, I mean, the absurdity of listening to, as you mentioned, AOC or Greta Thunberg or
00:03:40.820
Al Gore, these are just political activists who are put in.
00:03:45.400
And in the case of both AOC and Greta, they were put in by the establishment.
00:03:50.560
And Greta herself, her parent, her mother was a huge environmental activist with a major
00:03:58.440
I mean, she was literally chosen to be the voice of the establishment.
00:04:03.740
And their goal is to rile up young people, which Greta did, which AOC did to a large extent,
00:04:09.240
especially the 20-somethings and the sunshine movement of climate.
00:04:14.980
And I guess Al Gore is, I guess his genetic, his factor was, you know, old white man.
00:04:21.940
But, you know, that's what Tim Walls is apparently trying to appeal to.
00:04:25.180
But that's what Al Gore was trying to get the business establishment as the, you know,
00:04:29.020
conservative Democrat when he originally got involved.
00:04:31.660
And actually, if you go back to the early Al Gore, you go back to what Al Gore said about
00:04:35.940
climate in the 90s, you know, he was concerned.
00:04:40.760
But he was always talking about, you know, we're going to, you know, we need a carbon market.
00:04:47.680
Something happened to him, you know, about, you know, in the mid-2000s.
00:04:50.940
And he went just off the complete deep end of absurdity.
00:04:54.740
And, of course, that's where the entire climate movement has gone.
00:04:58.300
You know, you bring up a good point about, you know, gearing towards the younger crowd.
00:05:02.660
You know, over the next few years, in 10, 15 years, the electorate, you know,
00:05:06.980
the Republican electorate is on the older side.
00:05:09.540
And, you know, some of these people are going to be heading off into their next home.
00:05:13.340
And, you know, the Democrats want to target these younger voters and see if they can pull them in.
00:05:17.640
But I think after COVID and after that whole hysteria that they threw upon us where you couldn't stand six feet
00:05:23.280
or you couldn't have, you know, Christmas dinner with your family,
00:05:26.780
I think the young voters are starting to become a little spectacle of the government.
00:05:31.800
From the United Nations Secretary General, he says,
00:05:41.760
Everyone talks about Florida being underwater in the next 5, 10 years.
00:05:47.240
They're, you know, already at the water table to begin with.
00:05:51.680
What does that mean for everybody in layman's terms, for the audience who, you know,
00:05:58.440
This, the UN Secretary General, Antonio Gutierrez, it just does, he's the one that comes,
00:06:04.460
he's first of all, the former president of Socialist International.
00:06:09.400
Remember, what I said earlier, this is political salesmen using perceived climate or some kind
00:06:15.160
of science to make their, to achieve their political ends, which they would never otherwise
00:06:22.300
First of all, sea level has been rising for 10,000 plus years since the end of the ice
00:06:33.060
It's rising less than the thickness of a nickel.
00:06:35.980
For even Al Gore to talk about Florida underwater, we're talking, you know, thousands of years
00:06:44.920
What the UN came out is talking about the Pacific islands are particularly in threatened.
00:06:49.540
89% of Pacific islands have grown in size in recent years.
00:06:54.240
Places like Guam have the same sea level that they had in 1970.
00:06:57.920
And if you look at just all the data, even places like Miami, which they try to say, this
00:07:08.060
And a lot of that has to do with local water, irrigation, land use, concrete has nothing to
00:07:13.800
do with CO2 in the atmosphere, melting glaciers.
00:07:17.200
And if you look also at the source of where they claim the sea level is coming from places
00:07:21.460
like Antarctica, which for decades now, and I actually took a trip to Greenland, which was
00:07:26.240
another, when I worked in the U.S. Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, I actually was not
00:07:31.040
a senator, but I was Senate staff and went with a bunch of senators.
00:07:34.420
And Greenland is actually as warmer and warmer in the 1930s into the 1940s.
00:07:39.120
Antarctica, all the studies are showing that it's actually no warming trend continent-wide.
00:07:43.840
They can always find an area like near a volcano where they try to scare people.
00:07:47.880
If this continues, all this ice, this is a scare that is all designed to make us drop
00:07:54.280
everything, ban, you know, gas, woods-fired pizza ovens, gas stoves, gas-coured cars,
00:08:00.660
give up to thermostat controls, allow CNN proposing, you know, carbon passports to limit
00:08:15.460
Obama's own scientist, Steve Coonan, from his energy department, wrote a book and ridiculed
00:08:23.240
The science isn't there to support anything to be afraid of with sea level.
00:08:28.980
I want to talk about now the overall warming and cooling of the Earth.
00:08:32.520
For the people, the Democrats or the people who are on the fence about climate change here,
00:08:36.760
it's statistically true that over the last hundreds of thousands, maybe a million years,
00:08:43.500
Tell for the audience, if you will, what cycle we are in right now, when we could expect to
00:08:48.080
reach its peak and when we could expect for it to maybe come back down again, are we heading
00:08:53.260
towards, you know, an ice age eventually at some point?
00:08:58.040
And what can we expect come 10, 20, 100 years, 1,000 years from now?
00:09:03.080
Great question, because this is where I don't want to be partisan here.
00:09:08.020
First of all, I did a movie called Climate Hustle 2016, where we interviewed top scientists,
00:09:13.800
former NASA scientists, former UN scientists, Nobel Prize winning scientists are featured
00:09:22.940
The Earth is constant, climate is constantly changing.
00:09:25.920
But if you look at the geologic history of the Earth, we are currently in the 10% coldest
00:09:32.620
In other words, 90% of Earth's geologic history has been much warmer than today.
00:09:37.740
We are also, in geologically speaking, the 10% lowest carbon dioxide levels in Earth
00:09:43.920
So our carbon dioxide levels, 90% of Earth's history has had much higher carbon dioxide
00:09:48.580
Looking at it a little more closer than people could understand, you think about the Roman
00:09:54.060
And this has been documented in peer-reviewed studies, even the New York Times reported on
00:09:57.400
The New York Times reporter, when this study came out, said Al Gore is not going to like
00:10:00.900
this, showed the Roman warming period of about 0 AD to be warmer than today.
00:10:06.980
So we probably have cooled since the Roman warming period, the medieval warm period of
00:10:13.560
The original United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report from 1990 showed
00:10:19.680
the medieval warm period up here, current temperatures here.
00:10:22.780
They showed the medieval warm period as much, much warmer.
00:10:28.020
There was a whole movement of scientists and climate activists that said, quote, we have
00:10:31.740
to get rid of the medieval warm period because it was ruining their sales job for policy
00:10:37.880
And lo and behold, within a decade, they got rid of the medieval warm period.
00:10:42.180
In 2001 UN report, they came out with a chart showing temperatures down here for the last
00:10:47.700
thousand years and current temperatures up here.
00:10:50.220
They just, it's like a bank or a company losing all this money, right?
00:10:54.560
And they have all these fraud allegations and they can't make ends meet and they're heavily
00:11:10.140
And we had scientists come testify about how they monkey with all the old data to literally
00:11:14.440
just revise history, a very Orwellian, you know.
00:11:20.060
And the bottom line is to simplify it even more, hundreds of factors influence our climate.
00:11:24.540
Yes, carbon dioxide is one of those hundreds of factors.
00:11:28.860
We exhale carbon dioxide, but it's also tilt to the Earth's axis, ocean cycles, water vapor,
00:11:35.160
methane, clouds, the sun, and all of these, and so many others.
00:11:40.020
You literally go through land use policies and volcanoes.
00:11:45.620
The idea that we can select one of these factors, which is CO2, carbon dioxide, which
00:11:50.820
we exhale from our breath, a harmless trace, essential gas in the atmosphere, and say that
00:11:54.960
is driving a climate emergency or a climate crisis.
00:11:57.780
We had one scientist from England just say, this is scientific nonsense, which is what
00:12:04.980
And if you go back even closer to scale, 1930s and 40s, if people talk about the heat
00:12:09.980
wave or the 2024 heat wave, the hottest year on record, you look at what they're doing,
00:12:17.880
It's based on computer climate models from a computer that they mix in with not only the
00:12:25.260
real temperature data, but also this new, this sort of humiture heat index concept.
00:12:30.280
So they'll say it's 140 degrees in Death Valley.
00:12:32.880
It's like, no, it's actually 120, which is not unusual for Death Valley, the hottest place
00:12:37.660
But we've added in all these new statistics to make what the feel like temperature is.
00:12:44.000
And so one last point, the 1930s Biden administration, EPA, Environmental Protection Agency, showed
00:12:49.940
the 1930s heat waves as anywhere from six to 10 times hotter than anything we're experiencing
00:12:55.760
75% of all U.S. state temperature records, high temperature records were broken before
00:13:02.100
That gives you an idea that we're not experiencing unprecedented warmth right now over the last
00:13:09.320
You know, I was sort of believing what you were saying until you said that the government
00:13:17.560
When we come back, I want to get your take on why Kamala Harris has been so quiet about
00:13:23.240
She was once a champion for the Green New Deal.
00:13:29.500
We're talking with Mark Morano of ClimateDepot.com.
00:13:39.980
We're talking with Mark Morano of ClimateDepot.com.
00:13:42.700
Mark, right before we went to break, we were talking about Kamala Harris.
00:13:52.660
You heard Trump's name, you know, 200 times throughout the thing.
00:13:59.380
She was once a champion for the Green New Deal, the biggest scam arguably in American history.
00:14:07.520
Is she starting to realize that it's all a hoax to begin with?
00:14:23.200
Even the convention, just hardly any mentions at all.
00:14:25.500
To the extent they mentioned it, they promoted it as freedom, the solutions.
00:14:31.540
They talked about the Inflation Reduction Act and the climate solutions as enabling Americans to have freedom.
00:14:37.800
And it's the patriotic thing because we are essentially saving ourselves from a bad climate.
00:14:43.340
Again, this is the same as, you know, like, you know, don't urinate in the ocean because you're going to raise sea levels.
00:14:50.940
And Al Gore, by the way, has really picked up on that.
00:14:53.000
He is now out there telling everyone that within, like, almost immediately, if we pass all the legislation I'm promoting, the temperature will begin to fall.
00:15:04.840
Because we've been following this, and when I say we're being climate skeptics, and I run climatedepot.com, since the 80s, they've been having these Gallup polls showing that concern about global warming, and literally concern about global warming in America, has not really changed.
00:15:20.260
Now, there was a whole movement back with AOC's ascension, and you mentioned Kamala Harris was a co-sponsor of the Green New Deal.
00:15:27.420
She cast the tie-breaking vote for the Inflation Reduction Act.
00:15:30.120
Her administration with Biden was talking about declaring a national climate emergency.
00:15:40.500
And that is because in focus groups, in polling data, and this is as reported by the New York Times and Washington Post, not only does the public and independent voters not care, certainly Republican voters don't, but Democrat voters don't even need to hear this anymore.
00:15:57.080
And the real reason is the key swing states like Pennsylvania, where fracking is at the top of the list for the Pennsylvania economy and for the American energy success story, fracking, if you care about carbon dioxide emissions, has led the U.S. to lead the world in reducing them because fracking of natural gas is replacing coal.
00:16:16.320
So Kamala Harris and Kim Walls are making a strategic decision to avoid mentioning climate because they don't want to upset anyone in swing states like Pennsylvania.
00:16:35.100
They're covering it up to the extent they bring it up at all.
00:16:38.080
It's a couch and somehow some kind of freedom and jobs.
00:16:41.220
Tim Walls went so far as to sell climate solutions as a way we can all get rich.
00:16:47.080
That's what he told Minnesotans during Obama's presidency.
00:16:49.980
They can get rich off the federal subsidies and mandates and using their farms for carbon capture and all kinds of boondoggles that only wealthy donors usually benefit from, by the way.
00:17:01.940
So now that we've figured out that it's just a con job and that they do have a plan in place that they're not releasing to the voters for obvious reasons, what do you expect if, God forbid, we see a Harris-Waltz administration in January?
00:17:16.420
I mean, it'll obviously be the Green New Deal on steroids.
00:17:24.320
Well, it means a lot because right now, gas prices, energy prices, which then lead to higher inflation.
00:17:31.200
Everything is tied to this Obama, I'm sorry, Biden's energy policies.
00:17:43.040
But day one of the Biden-Harris administration, they began massive restrictions on energy across the board.
00:17:49.760
It was like 144 actions, everything from the Keystone Pipeline to drilling on lands to access for permits for oil wells and coal, everything.
00:18:04.360
So what they're going to do, we already know that they've flirted twice, as reported by the mainstream media, of declaring national climate emergencies.
00:18:12.300
Because in a divided government, say Republicans retain the House or get the Senate, they want the ability, as NBC News reported, this is significant, John, to literally declare a national climate emergency and it would give them COVID-like powers.
00:18:28.220
130 new executive powers would be granted to Kamala Harris by which to bypass Congress.
00:18:34.780
This would affect our freedom of movement, our travel, gas-powered car, airline restrictions, getting permission from the government to travel.
00:18:42.920
CNN's already floated a carbon passport so people can't just travel unlimited.
00:18:49.880
They've already banned flights of under two and a half hours, citing climate change, forcing people into cars, buses and trains.
00:19:00.300
Real quick on that point, that's just as the Olympics wraps up, where you had all the celebrities in the world flying in on their private jets.
00:19:13.920
Just like when Bill Gates wanted longer COVID lockdowns, he announced this in January 2021.
00:19:18.840
In the same week, he was bidding for the world's largest private jet transport company.
00:19:28.900
And that's always been the case with these policies.
00:19:31.180
This is the raping, if you will, of America's middle class to go to funding programs for Democrat donors.
00:19:38.900
And then they're going to, on the backside of it, with all the government goodies and guaranteed minimum income, universal basic income,
00:19:46.000
they're going to buy loyal voters and they'll have a subsistence level of life in America,
00:19:50.340
but owe their subsistence level to the Democrat Party and the vote.
00:19:56.560
But to be very explicit, not only the climate emergency, but a complete continuation and an acceleration of Biden's green energy policies.
00:20:06.500
And it's just going to put a hammer to American economy, to American energy, to American industry.
00:20:13.060
And it's the intentional rationing of energy, food and transportation.
00:20:20.220
And that'd be another four solid years of that, to squeeze our economy, to squeeze Americans, all to do nothing.
00:20:27.640
The bigger picture here is carbon dioxide emissions continue to rise since the first UN Earth Summit 1992.
00:20:35.780
I've been to 19 out of the last 21 UN Climate Summits.
00:20:38.980
I'm going to my 20th this year in Azerbaijan and Boku next to Russia and sandwiched between Russia and Iran to this UN Summit.
00:20:52.760
And CO2 continues to rise in the atmosphere without any care of what the UN does or says.
00:20:59.420
I'd love to know how much that conference costs and how much money is made from it with all the BS that's being spewed.
00:21:04.920
You know, the most alarming thing to me is these private companies, or I mean private, I mean public and private companies,
00:21:14.440
You know, Mercedes-Benz in 2021 announced they were spending $43 billion and they were going to go fully electric by 2025.
00:21:23.840
Now they're saying they don't know if they're going to have it done anytime soon, letting consumers know that they will continue to build vehicles with combustion engines well into the next decade.
00:21:37.000
Obviously, you have the EU proposal that they'd like to ban gas and diesel vehicles by 2035.
00:21:43.200
You know, it's surprising to me because these are multibillion dollar corporations and they're all across the world.
00:21:48.700
And you have arguably the smartest people in the world running these companies.
00:21:52.800
You know, you're not going to put an AOC to run one of these companies, or maybe you will.
00:21:56.640
But, you know, you have all these smart people and they're buying into it.
00:22:00.200
There's one person who's not, and that's Elon Musk.
00:22:02.920
And Elon Musk is, I think he's the largest producer of electric cars in the world, doing an interview a few weeks ago with President Trump on Twitter,
00:22:12.800
saying, you know, he's all for getting rid of electric car subsidies.
00:22:18.640
And this is, I think Elon Musk is the smartest man in the world.
00:22:22.020
And, you know, I'd be happy to debate anybody against that.
00:22:24.540
But why are these private corporations, you know, so easily persuaded into this?
00:22:30.840
And do you think that some of them now have finally woken up to realize that it's all a scam?
00:22:38.820
A, these same companies, particularly places like Boeing, which we've all heard of, Harley-Davidson most recently,
00:22:45.640
they buy into this whole corporate woke culture of DEI, ESG, environment, social governance, diversity, equity, inclusion.
00:22:58.240
So they don't want to go afoul of that or they wouldn't be the CEOs of these companies.
00:23:09.540
No, the only way it's possible, and this is what they've been promoting.
00:23:12.360
And in my book, Green Fraud, I go back to, I think it's, I want to say it's 19, maybe 1890s or 1910 or something,
00:23:18.680
where they're actually talking about how solar technology is about.
00:23:25.200
It's only possible in a fantasy world where wind and solar somehow take over our industrial grid.
00:23:31.180
Keep in mind, wind and solar are less than 5% of energy production in the U.S.
00:23:34.220
And also, even if you look at just the electrical grid, it's like 13%, 14%.
00:23:40.680
Wind and solar combined with all the massive subsidies and mandates and funding and banning their competition.
00:23:47.080
If something's so great, why do you have to ban the competition?
00:23:50.820
They're banning gas-powered cars because EVs are so great.
00:23:53.840
Well, imagine Muhammad Ali fighting Joe Frazier, and it's like, well, we don't have to fight.
00:24:01.880
How about Joe Biden versus or Kamala Harris versus Donald Trump, and you jail the opponent?
00:24:12.640
From beginning to end, when they tell you this is the way to go, it's the only way.
00:24:19.020
Well, if it's cheaper, why is it a subsidized mandate and their competition banned?
00:24:24.460
So to answer your direct question, why are they involved?
00:24:27.020
They want to be part of this culture because they don't exist if they don't support net zero
00:24:30.740
and the whole culture of this climate agenda, number one.
00:24:33.560
Number two, it's the corporate government collusion.
00:24:35.600
The government is giving them massive subsidies with all these mandates and working with them.
00:24:42.180
And there's also the threat of the government, more regulation and hurting these companies
00:24:56.280
Even though EVs are collapsing and every major manufacturer from Toyota to Ford to Honda to
00:25:01.540
Chrysler, all admitting this now, and their sales are tanking globally.
00:25:07.460
The EU, you mentioned, had an election and they're backing off some of this, but they're still,
00:25:11.380
you know, the election wasn't quite enough to turn the EU back to some rational.
00:25:15.680
And of course, England went the opposite direction because of their parliamentary and the way
00:25:22.040
Even if you want to buy a gas-powered car, you have corporate banks now colluding, saying
00:25:27.500
they're not going to give out gas-powered car loans shortly.
00:25:30.480
You had the World Bank at a World Bank meeting, the former head, Nicholas Stern, telling automakers
00:25:35.000
that they're not going to be financing the creation of gas-powered cars.
00:25:38.680
And you have Colorado and California cities announcing that you're banning the creation
00:25:44.380
of new gas stations to create gas station shortages, even if you have it.
00:25:48.480
This is akin to the old East Germany under Eric Honecker's government.
00:25:53.300
The government decreed you can only have one government-approved car, the crappy East German
00:25:58.080
Trabant, you'd be on a waiting list five, 10 or more years.
00:26:01.560
That's what our government in the West is now doing with net zero in Europe, Canada,
00:26:07.160
You can only have one government-decreed car, the impractical, expensive, and horrible to
00:26:14.100
Last point, one Tesla EV battery requires half a million pounds of materials to make.
00:26:21.360
This is, I'd like to say they dig the earth, not in a Brady brunch, 1970s groovy way, but
00:26:26.320
in a literal way, with the rare earth mining in China and Africa, lowest environmental standards
00:26:32.400
possible, worst human rights records, underage kids in Africa for cobalt.
00:26:37.100
It's a disaster, and any logical person looking at it would understand that.
00:26:44.580
People understand that mass is not created or destroyed.
00:26:48.520
So what happens to those batteries once they're expired?
00:26:52.480
First of all, the resale value of the car is after 10 years, or it's not even worth it
00:27:00.820
There is a whole problem with both EV batteries and solar panels and also windmill and parts
00:27:12.660
We were lied to about plastic recycling, everyone dutifully separating their trash.
00:27:16.960
It turns out like 95% of the plastic isn't recyclable.
00:27:19.820
And major trash companies in the US were just gave up years ago.
00:27:24.120
They were caught on hidden camera putting it all.
00:27:26.960
It's just a, it's a, what's the word I'm looking for?
00:27:29.140
It's virtue signaling to actually go through and do all that.
00:27:34.120
That was a big lie by the corporation, plastic, in order to try to get some virtue signal with
00:27:43.360
And when you look at all the amount of concrete and plastic and steel necessary to make the
00:27:48.780
windmills or the solar panels, none of it is green.
00:27:52.420
None of it compared, at best, it's equal to fossil fuels.
00:27:55.560
So there's no reason to do it for concern over the earth.
00:28:00.320
As I mentioned, it'd be one thing if we sacrificed all this because they were fantastic and really
00:28:06.860
It barely makes sense for the average person to put solar panels on their roof.
00:28:10.200
And the only reason to make short-term sense is the massive government subsidies and incentives
00:28:17.900
And then you're ended up with these solar panels that are fading and they don't work
00:28:29.360
But the problem is you have the Inflation Reduction Act, which is now in perpetuity going
00:28:33.020
to spend trillions of dollars unless Republican Congress and Senate would need both and of
00:28:39.180
But right now, that's the most destructive bill, I think, in American recent history.
00:28:43.800
Going back real quickly before we go to break here on the net zero thing.
00:28:48.120
I asked that question because I got on a plane recently.
00:28:50.820
I forgot where I was going at what airline it was, either JetBlue or United.
00:28:56.400
And it said, do you want to donate money so that we can go further towards net zero?
00:29:01.680
And I'm sitting in my seat thinking, how many trees do you have to?
00:29:07.360
So I know I would say millions and tens of millions of gallons or pounds of fuel because
00:29:12.020
they weigh in pounds are burned each day through airliners across America and across the world.
00:29:17.360
And I'm sitting there thinking in my seat, how many trees do you have to plant to offset
00:29:20.900
all this jet fuel burning and the ground guys that drive around the tug carts burning to
00:29:28.160
And I'm saying to myself, then I look at the damn napkin they give me a drink on and it
00:29:31.620
says we're going to be carbon net zero by so-and-so day.
00:29:35.060
And I'm like, this doesn't make much sense at all.
00:29:39.560
When we return, I want to talk about heat-related debts climbing 117% over the last 25 years.
00:29:45.340
Also, Bill Gates is up to something new, and we're going to take that up with Mark Morano
00:29:58.900
We're talking with Mark Morano of Climate Depot.
00:30:00.960
Mark, before we went to break, heat-related debts climbed 117% over 25 years.
00:30:09.340
This is one of the biggest fraud stories in the media and in political class.
00:30:22.420
On margins by peer-reviewed study acknowledged by even the United Nations, 8, 10, up to 20
00:30:28.540
times more people die of extreme cold than heat.
00:30:32.280
A statistician Bjorn Lomborg of the Copenhagen Consensus Project in Europe actually did the
00:30:38.120
analysis, and it's something like hundreds of thousands of people's lives are saved every
00:30:44.700
So we have less extreme cold wave deaths with a slight increase statistically compared
00:30:54.020
The simplest way to deal with heat-related deaths is very simple.
00:30:59.260
What does the climate agenda have in their sights as almost the number one target?
00:31:04.060
LA Times doesn't want people to have individual air conditioners in their home.
00:31:07.600
They're instead suggesting government transport to take you to cooling centers during the
00:31:17.660
Yeah, or maybe a diesel or maybe an electric bus that's recharged with a diesel generator.
00:31:25.960
And in terms of this heat days, heat deaths, and all extreme weather, remember, hurricanes,
00:31:30.940
floods, tornadoes, wildfires, droughts, either no trend or declining trends on 30, 50, 100-year
00:31:35.820
climate timescales, over the last 100 years, 99% drop in climate-related deaths.
00:31:42.740
That gives you an idea of how you're being conned if you're buying the idea, there's more
00:31:49.960
It's actually stopping people from dying in the winter.
00:31:52.200
It's a net gain of saving hundreds of thousands of lives.
00:31:54.960
And over the last 100 years, there's been a 99% drop in climate-related deaths.
00:31:59.380
So fossil fuels, by creating technology, wealth, infrastructure, have literally been the greatest
00:32:10.100
So the solution isn't centrally planned government edicts, mandates, and corporate government
00:32:17.300
The solution is wealth, prosperity, and technological innovation.
00:32:21.260
That's why we have early warning systems for hurricanes and tornadoes.
00:32:26.220
That's why you have better satellite monitoring and Doppler radars that have all been invented.
00:32:31.720
Gives everyone all that early warning, plus the fact that the weather is not getting more
00:32:36.620
extreme, despite what you may believe or have heard.
00:32:41.260
I may be a skeptic on this, but it seems like almost every abnormality there is, whether it
00:32:45.740
be high gas prices, gas lines, tornadoes, hurricanes, rain, snow, sleet, hail, smog, fog, wildfires.
00:33:01.200
And what they do is they say, climate change will cause many bad things to happen.
00:33:07.740
That's like saying life will cause many bad things to happen, Mark.
00:33:11.020
We're born knowing we have to pay taxes eventually, and we're going to die one day.
00:33:15.580
It's like an astrologist or a palm reader on the boardwalk saying that.
00:33:20.000
Every time something bad happens, we predicted that.
00:33:23.180
Another way to look, and this is important because I use this analogy in my book, and
00:33:28.920
Your chance of winning the lottery is very low.
00:33:31.200
The chance of someone somewhere winning is very high.
00:33:35.480
So what they do is they pick an extreme weather event.
00:33:43.960
And they put all this together to make it look like everyone's winning the lottery negatively.
00:33:50.420
You know, you walk in in the casino and they have all the pictures of the people holding
00:33:58.960
You get the idea that everyone should play slots because everyone's winning.
00:34:05.760
That's what the climate establishment does with extreme weather.
00:34:13.320
You know it's not because it's in your reports that it's not buried in the reports.
00:34:18.400
It's that same propaganda techniques that casino would use or a lottery to get you to
00:34:24.400
They create the illusion that it's all happening and unprecedented that you need to play the
00:34:29.400
lottery or you need to pull that arm on the slots.
00:34:32.400
And that's what they do because they want you to think the weather's extreme so that you'll
00:34:40.960
That's where we are in Europe and the whole Western world.
00:34:43.600
You know, Mark, before our conversation today, I was a skeptic of the government going back
00:34:48.240
to COVID and everything they've done to us over the last, I don't know, since 2016 when
00:34:54.800
But after today, you've got me really nervous about what the government is capable of.
00:34:59.480
I want to turn to the possibility of Trump returning to the White House and withdrawing
00:35:06.560
It was one of the first things that Biden did once he got back in office.
00:35:09.580
Can you explain to the audience what exactly that is and what it means to America?
00:35:13.460
The way I understand it is, is that the Paris Climate Treaty tells everyone they have to
00:35:17.960
tone down their emissions and they have to do this and they have to follow by certain
00:35:21.840
But there's certain countries that don't have to.
00:35:26.380
The last time we let China get away with something like this was the Belt and Road Initiative.
00:35:31.220
And I sort of see a lot of similarities, right?
00:35:35.740
It allowed China to develop their nation further that it was already developed.
00:35:39.420
They should have never been allowed in it in the first place.
00:35:41.300
But now it allowed China to be a world-dominant power.
00:35:44.640
Look what happened during COVID when we needed masks, when we needed medicines.
00:35:49.140
I think over 90% of our pharmaceuticals are produced overseas, whether it be China or India.
00:35:55.620
Tell the audience, if you will, if you agree with me on the parallels between the Belt and Road
00:35:59.820
initiative with China and what the Paris Climate Treaty actually is.
00:36:04.520
Well, first of all, just on that point about relying on China, there's a whole war on net
00:36:10.140
zero for hospitals and medical community to the point where they're telling surgeons they
00:36:15.940
had to limit the water when they scrub up for surgery to save water and all this whole net
00:36:22.260
The American Cancer Society has said that climate is one of the biggest problems.
00:36:27.380
And there's talk about now even regulations on anesthesia because of the emissions.
00:36:32.200
Because they have their eye off the ball, all the new cancer medications are now coming from
00:36:37.180
So we're relying on them more and more pharmaceutically as we go more and more net zero.
00:36:43.360
If this were allowed to continue, China would be the sole number one automaker in the world
00:36:50.380
So having said all that, what happened with the UN Paris Agreement was the United States
00:37:03.080
Actually, the premiere was shut down because of all the protesters.
00:37:10.080
But we were there when they agreed to this historic deal.
00:37:12.940
Well, the historic deal was nothing more than Western nations committing economic suicide
00:37:17.800
while China, the developing world, India, other nations come completely off the hook.
00:37:22.040
China was allowed to continue developing for decades and at some point reach a thing and
00:37:28.780
And Obama immediately implements all these restrictions on the West.
00:37:32.600
And China, of course, has nothing to this day, has nothing.
00:37:38.300
You'd almost think these were Chinese agents working in the United States government to
00:37:43.580
There's no other justification because once you look at their claimed reason, which is
00:37:47.720
we have a climate emergency, it makes no sense.
00:37:49.760
Even John Kerry admitted that even if you zeroed out the U.S. emissions to nothing, I mean,
00:37:55.360
stopped all CO2 emissions, it wouldn't even affect global CO2 emissions.
00:38:01.100
So the whole thing is an exercise in virtue signaling and feel good politics, but it's
00:38:07.080
really destructive for American economy and sovereignty and our future.
00:38:15.020
And now for Donald Trump, the big mistake he made, he made a lot of mistakes, but he was
00:38:25.440
Since Ronald Reagan, we had George H.W. Bush, Bob Dole, George W. Bush, John McCain, and
00:38:34.660
You're saying that any single one of them was better than Donald Trump?
00:38:38.680
You can have the entire lot and toss them over to the Democrat Party for good.
00:38:47.900
Anyway, so Donald Trump, unfortunately, had populated his administration with the unit
00:38:56.120
He recommended Trump stay in the Paris Agreement.
00:39:04.580
He admitted to me that he single-handedly stopped the first United States pushback against
00:39:09.400
the UN Climate Panel, this climate commission that they were trying to do.
00:39:12.940
He bragged about it at CPAC, that he was the one that stopped it, thought it was too extreme.
00:39:17.200
So what happened was you had officials in Trump telling him.
00:39:23.120
All he did was announce our intent to withdraw from the treaty, which meant what?
00:39:26.520
By the time Biden came in, they just put us right back in.
00:39:29.720
What Trump needs to do this time, should he get elected, and I'm going to go ahead and
00:39:34.280
I don't think Donald Trump's going to win, not because of anything he's done right or
00:39:38.420
wrong, but because I don't think the establishment will let him, and they're way too powerful.
00:39:42.280
They'll find some way to stop him from being declared the winner and getting sworn in.
00:39:47.380
But if he were to win, I think there's a legal procedure.
00:39:51.520
He's got to pull us out of this framework convention on climate change, which is what
00:39:55.560
George H.W. Bush in 1992, September, went down to the Rio Earth Summit, signed the Rio
00:40:00.820
Earth Summit Treaty with the United Nations, and started the whole process.
00:40:04.340
A Republican president is what got us into this.
00:40:06.780
Read my lips, George Bush, New World Order George Bush.
00:40:09.700
By the way, people are like, oh, you're a Republican.
00:40:18.100
Very few times did I vote for a Republican nominee after Reagan.
00:40:22.560
And I think, actually, I'm not even sure I did.
00:40:24.320
I didn't vote for Reagan because I wasn't old enough.
00:40:42.280
No, but you're getting along the point where you're not tied to one side or one party.
00:40:49.140
Yeah, and so my point being, though, is this is who Trump populated.
00:40:53.280
So the reason I think we had a lot of great stuff come out of Trump, the problem was it
00:40:59.280
He's got to go after the deep state this time, pull us out, because if he could theoretically,
00:41:05.720
But if he pulls us out of this UN framework convention, then it's a lot harder and you
00:41:10.840
need a new treaty or Senate ratification to get us back in.
00:41:13.580
He needs to put landmines in to stop the next president from trying to get us back in.
00:41:18.520
And the next president, if it's Nikki Haley, if it's Tim Scott, or if it's even Marco Rubio,
00:41:25.220
they're not, to me, those aren't Republicans I would ever vote for anything, including Senator.
00:41:40.000
He had opposite views five years ago and a lot of stuff.
00:41:45.320
The problem is, is Trump changed our view on a lot of things.
00:41:50.260
I'll never forget when I first started working for Lou, I walked into his office and we were
00:41:55.160
And I'm like, yeah, Lindsay, I'm a young kid at this point.
00:41:59.140
And I went down a list of people that I liked and Lou just went one by one by one by one
00:42:06.880
I'm like, what does this guy know about anything, man?
00:42:11.620
As months and years went on, every single person that I looked up to and that I admired ended
00:42:16.780
up being one of those people that Lou said they're bad people.
00:42:20.360
You had mentioned, and full disclosure, I worked for Larry Kudlow for a little bit.
00:42:23.580
And the man is one of the biggest frauds I have ever met.
00:42:26.580
Um, I'll never forget one of his first days he walked into Fox.
00:42:30.580
He had said something along the lines of a full Democrat staff working alongside of us.
00:42:35.860
Uh, he said something along the lines of, you know, we're not going to push whatever
00:42:41.580
And this was before Trump became the presumptive nominee.
00:42:44.140
And now you see years later, uh, his ratings probably took a little spill for that, but he
00:42:50.300
And, but I had heard from multiple people after leaving, working for him, that there
00:42:55.540
was time and time again, where what you, exactly what you'd said, Trump would go into meetings
00:43:00.120
with him and Larry had his own agenda and he pushed that agenda.
00:43:06.760
And, you know, he, Trump would push back and say, well, no, I want you to tell me how
00:43:11.460
Um, so if Trump can keep people like Larry Kudlow's of the world out of his next administration,
00:43:17.260
almost, I think he'll be a lot better off, uh, you know, the neocons and the rhinos of
00:43:22.080
the world, you know, we're terrible for him in 2016.
00:43:25.140
And I, I think he's finally learned who to trust.
00:43:28.360
Um, I'm just still a little nervous about some of the people.
00:43:36.520
The other thing you'd mentioned was the legal, uh, aspect of getting caught up in things.
00:43:40.880
And I was talking with somebody about this last night where the Republicans aren't as
00:43:44.140
smart as the Democrats, the Democrats go in and do whatever the hell they want.
00:43:54.540
We've had DACA now 14 or so years since Obama, it's still caught up in the courts.
00:43:59.800
You know, it's sort of the mentality of do first and then ask for forgiveness later, but
00:44:03.660
they don't even have to ask for forgiveness because the courts just keep kicking it down to
00:44:06.700
a lower court and back to this court and back to that court.
00:44:09.160
And, and before you know it, you have the student loan forgiveness.
00:44:14.700
You have millions and millions of illegals here who shouldn't be here, but they're here
00:44:19.380
because of DACA that's been caught up in the court to go even further.
00:44:23.120
The Supreme court comes back and says, well, you can't give all this money on student loans
00:44:28.740
We already started and we're going to continue.
00:44:30.400
So, you know, I think the Republicans really need to smarten up and play by the same rules
00:44:35.180
the Democrats play by and, you know, do first and ask for forgiveness later.
00:44:41.200
Yeah, it'd be an interesting tactic to do because it's what they mentioned student loan.
00:44:46.240
I mean, that was like a way they appealed to the vote.
00:44:49.500
Of course, they knew it was not going to pass courts, you know, any kind of legal scrutiny,
00:44:57.080
I don't like to be careful that you're not doing something that you know is not going
00:45:01.940
to ever happen in politics, but it's, you know, they have to be bolder.
00:45:06.640
In fact, you look at another example of just what you mentioned was the mask mandate that
00:45:13.120
It took almost two years for one federally appointed Trump judge to end that monstrosity.
00:45:18.540
I don't know why the Republicans just accepted that.
00:45:25.000
And then, of course, they're telling landlords they couldn't evict tenants.
00:45:30.160
A lot of this really came in earnest during the Obama administration.
00:45:34.020
But actually, the real history of the last 30 years, you have George H.W.
00:45:38.380
Bush committing us at the Earth Summit to this mess in the New World Order, essentially.
00:45:42.780
Then you have 9-11 and the Bush-Cheney response and the endless wars and that we turn into
00:45:53.500
Most of the staff was all for, we're going to build a bank sale.
00:46:06.360
And then, of course, you had COVID, which I think opened a lot of eyes.
00:46:09.700
This is why you have Naomi Wolf and the Joe Rogans and the RFK Juniors now coming over
00:46:19.800
We're still living under the 9-11 emergency declaration.
00:46:22.080
COVID, of course, gave us the biosecurity state.
00:46:30.200
And what they want to do now with a climate emergency, essentially, is complete this triangle,
00:46:34.740
if you will, for total biometric control, limits on our freedom of movement, collapse of
00:46:41.280
food, food rationing, Bill Gates, of course, literally saying, telling MIT Technology Review,
00:46:46.860
he wants to see animal agriculture end in the entire Western world.
00:46:49.980
And everything moved to a laboratory or fake meat.
00:46:52.900
Laboratory funded by Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, Bill Gates, making lab-grown meat from stem
00:46:58.620
cells from a cow sheep pig, mixed with fetal blood, put into a petri dish, and then a steel
00:47:02.800
vat allowed to fester and print it on a 3-D printer.
00:47:05.700
Everything I just said is actual and disgusting.
00:47:07.980
I actually want to get into that right now, but real quick on the masking thing that you
00:47:12.300
mentioned, the funny part to me is the hypocrisy of it all, and that people just, some people
00:47:18.280
aren't smart enough to wake up to the hypocrisy.
00:47:23.740
And, you know, masking was as long as here as it was in California.
00:47:28.160
Now, years later, I think Kathy Hochul signed a bill in the law that you're not allowed to
00:47:33.900
wear our masks anymore because thieves were going into stores looting with these damn
00:47:41.280
And, I mean, and nobody thinks that this is funny.
00:47:44.080
I mean, it's idiotic and it's sad at the same time.
00:47:47.900
But for people not to realize it by now and still vote for these people, then you get what
00:47:52.960
And I hate to say it, but that's what it comes down to.
00:47:55.060
You were talking about Bill Gates and lab-grown meat.
00:48:00.060
Meat consumption linked to higher type 2 diabetes risk in observational study.
00:48:07.580
In a study, they found that eating 50 grams of processed meats per day, equivalent to two
00:48:12.780
slices of ham or bacon or one small sausage, led to a 15% higher risk of developing type
00:48:21.900
Eating 100 grams of unprocessed red meat per day, roughly a small steak, led to a 10% greater
00:48:28.180
Now, this study was done by the University of Cambridge.
00:48:30.880
My friend Brianna Morello did a deep dive into this last week.
00:48:33.660
And, lo and behold, she found a link between University of Cambridge and none other than
00:48:39.640
Bill Gates, in 2022, received FDA green light for his company to start experimenting with
00:48:49.020
Mark, why is it every single time something suspect is happening, either Bill Gates, Jeff
00:48:54.880
Bezos, Klaus Schwab, or one of those other idiot elites is involved in this?
00:49:04.120
They are the global ruling class at the moment.
00:49:10.780
I wish Trump Vance would come out, you know, let's break up Google.
00:49:18.480
They need to simplify their message on some of these things.
00:49:21.120
But Bill Gates, particularly, number one single funder to the World Health Organization, which
00:49:26.180
is pushing this pandemic treaty, these amendments.
00:49:28.520
Bill Gates funded scientists at the WHO can declare a viral pandemic, and we could have
00:49:32.360
global instant lockdowns with stay-at-home orders and mask mandates and vax mandates.
00:49:36.760
That's what the Biden administration and Harris are pushing.
00:49:39.000
And that's one of the things we can look forward to.
00:49:40.400
And by the way, climate is now part of public health.
00:49:44.780
They have doctor kits to tell your patients to reduce carbon footprint, all kinds of stuff.
00:49:48.720
Anyway, doctors can diagnose you as suffering from climate change.
00:50:00.880
But then he's also involved in blocking the sun through Harvard University research to
00:50:05.860
block the sun to cool the earth, which is just bonkers.
00:50:09.940
He's also involved, again, in this lab-grown meat.
00:50:12.160
And what he's done here, he's, according to NBC News, the largest single farmland owner
00:50:17.200
in America, followed closely by Jeff Bezos, followed closely by China.
00:50:21.440
In this case, I think I'd rather China be the number one landowner, because I think people
00:50:25.440
would be more likely to fight that than they would a homegrown American.
00:50:30.300
So to make a long story short, Bill Gates is the number one farmland owner pushing lab-grown
00:50:36.620
Bill Gates, for some reason, we have lab-grown FDA is now approving lab-grown meat for human
00:50:40.940
consumption, the European Union, except for Italy.
00:50:43.240
Can you tell for the audience what exactly that means?
00:50:45.080
I'm sorry to interrupt you, but what exactly is lab-grown meat?
00:50:48.080
Well, that's what I was ranting, but that's what I was saying.
00:50:50.640
That is stem cells from a pig-sheep-calf mixed with the fetal blood in a Petri dish in a laboratory.
00:50:57.100
I say that like they do in Frankenstein, the laboratory.
00:51:00.320
Mixed with the fetal blood, put into a steel vat, allowed to fester, additives, texture,
00:51:05.660
in a process that looks similar to the pink slime you see with the McDonald's chicken
00:51:16.740
Genetically, it is real meat because it's genetically derived, but they're called tumor burgers.
00:51:22.320
We don't know the long-term effects of this, but it's highly processed.
00:51:27.800
They're doing it with fish, with meat, and the idea is you can print up to, I think,
00:51:33.600
So imagine coming home, hey, what's for dinner?
00:51:37.480
Look at how juicy that is, and Bill Gates has said we don't need to have animal agriculture.
00:51:42.340
He wants to end it in the entire Western world.
00:51:44.740
That and, of course, the Beyond Meat, which is different.
00:51:47.380
That's the vegetable oil processed meat, like 20-some ingredients per pound, made to look
00:51:53.520
like meat that even the CNN nutritionist said this is not healthy.
00:52:07.180
It's mind-blowing to me that every single time you hear something that's suspect going
00:52:11.180
on, like lab-grown meats, which sounds really appetizing.
00:52:14.320
I'd love to have a lab-grown chicken parmesan sometime, but it's always the same people
00:52:26.560
But on this point, I read a book recently by Seamus Bruner.
00:52:33.400
And it goes into a deep dive of how these people came about, the Jeff Bezos and the Bill
00:52:38.960
And everyone will be surprised to learn how Bill Gates, one of his first big things was
00:52:47.220
Mark, tell the audience, if you will, where they can read all of your work and your latest
00:52:52.980
So my website is climatedepot.com, and the book is The Great Reset, Global Elites and
00:53:00.680
And this book goes through the entire Build Back Better, Net Zero, the intentional collapse
00:53:09.260
They're coming after the other thing on the food is they're coming after high yield agriculture
00:53:13.180
with nitrogen restrictions on fertilizer, and they're coming after meat eating with methane
00:53:18.380
And this is what the farmers in the Netherlands fought back, formed their own political party.
00:53:23.640
They were spraying manure all over the EU building, which sounds about right to me, as
00:53:28.880
So that's what my book, The Great Reset, Global Elites, there's several other great reset books.
00:53:36.600
I was actually told in an interview by Alex Jones that he thought my book was better than
00:53:43.360
Mine's more colorful and give you real world examples.
00:53:50.580
Well, his was colorful, but his was like a big picture philosophical.
00:53:59.260
The last point, what I try to do in all my presentations, books, reporting, everything
00:54:04.280
I say and do and present is not based on anonymous sources, secret documents.
00:54:09.940
This is where they say the quiet parts out loud.
00:54:13.920
It's all academia, corporate media, international organizations, government officials.
00:54:19.340
Their exact words, their exact plans from their documents.
00:54:33.380
This was the original vision presented of the administrative state to Woodrow Wilson back
00:54:40.900
Franklin Delano Roosevelt had a socialist advisor named Stuart Chase, who literally proposed
00:54:45.880
an early version of the Great Reset slash net zero government control of media, government
00:54:51.860
control of transportation, government control of agriculture, government control of energy.
00:54:56.720
They've been trying this for over a century in America.
00:54:59.700
Finally, it's the closest they've ever been to succeeding.
00:55:08.400
And I think there's only one way we get out of this, and that's the right choice on November
00:55:13.020
Mark Morano, thanks for everything you're doing.
