You two are doing amazing work. It is maddening how much journalism people have come to expect for free. Keep making us think about such an enormous challenge in front of us all.

I turn to Heated for all climate insight ... especially when my “something’s sketchy here” antennae are quivering uncontrollably ... and you amazing writers/sleuths have pulled together all the loose threads to weave the story into one that makes sense. Thank you for that dedication. I’ve shared Heated with important climate justice workers in my community and they have shared with others. We are grateful for you and your work. Happy Holidays 🥳

Thank you both for the amazing, insightful and impactful work you've done this past year!! I hopped on board when Emily started this endeavor and I have not been disappointed, ever. Even during the hiatus, we still got occasional posts from Emily keeping us up on important climate news. I was inspired to share this newsletter with another Substacker I subscribe to when she mentioned the "historic" climate news coming out of COP28. Long may you ladies ferret out the skunks that are overheating our world, and long may our dear Fish continue to enjoy stellar birthdays! <3

Western governments facing climate reality.

Latest….All our national news-papers are reporting this with much commentary, and slamming our Federal government for the prosperity killing Carbon tax.

The Ottawa- based Macdonald- Laurier Institute has named Steven Guilbeault, federal minister of environment and climate change, its 2023 policymaker of the year. “Ruthless, reckless and damaging,” the cover of the latest issue of MLI’S Inside Policy magazine calls him, announcing its choice.

Standing out for reckless and damaging policy-

A Political New-year’s Resolution on Climate Change.

It’s clear that many western governments are now experiencing a political shift in thinking on the reality and risks of following a NetZero policy, and we predict new political resolutions on the approach to climate change in the new year and beyond.

Happy New Year…

Here are two examples of what to expect in 2024 as we defuse the climate groupthink and start a move toward Climate reality.

Given how Substack has just decided that they're ok with Nazis, I'd like to give up my ability comment here in exchange for another way to support Heated.

How can I do that?

Criminals Against Humanity

We should declare climate change activists and those in authority that support NetZero as “Criminals Against Humanity” and a clear and present danger to global prosperity.

The concept of eliminating fossil fuels which is the main source of sustainability and prosperity for many decades to come for most civilizations is asinine.

We are being forced into alternative technologies and solutions that are either unavailable, not ready, or scientifically un-capable. It will reduce prosperity and increase suffering across the globe.

Further, the NetZero action on the mitigation of CO2 emissions is far beyond any threat of the outcome of an increase in global temperatures, and a far better priority would be adaptation (if needed) using the power of fossil fuels.

In fact, the so-called threat of increasing CO2 on many fronts is a benefit not a threat, as it is increasing the food supply across the biosphere of our planet.

This NetZero mandate is being driven by propaganda and fanaticism that is polarizing our institutions where open alternative dialogue and contrary expert opinions is being suppressed and subjugated. This process is radicalizing our youth and creating a dangerous false consensus.

It is time for national governments to form their own commissions to push back on most of the UN initiatives, as they have clearly lost any form of reality or responsibility and brings into question the real motives of these dangerous agendas.

Lets hope 2024 brings more common sense.
