Allen Jackson NOW | Allen Jackson: Climate Science | Allen Jackson Now | April 22, 2025
  • Well.
  • 00:00:04.830 --> 00:00:05.263
  • Good evening.
  • 00:00:05.263 --> 00:00:06.264
  • I'm alan jackson, and welcome to nashville.
  • 00:00:06.264 --> 00:00:08.133
  • There's a lot of emotion around climate science.
  • 00:00:08.133 --> 00:00:11.103
  • I'm an advocate for science.
  • 00:00:11.103 --> 00:00:12.804
  • I think you'd have to be a bit off balance to purposely
  • 00:00:12.804 --> 00:00:15.774
  • Want to see the destruction of the habitat in which we live.
  • 00:00:15.774 --> 00:00:19.911
  • But climate science is not as simple as it's presented,
  • 00:00:19.911 --> 00:00:23.782
  • And sometimes it's even just downright misleading.
  • 00:00:23.782 --> 00:00:26.451
  • What examples? renewable energy.
  • 00:00:26.451 --> 00:00:28.120
  • It's a wonderful concept,
  • 00:00:28.120 --> 00:00:29.821
  • But it's a little bit like clicking
  • 00:00:29.821 --> 00:00:31.056
  • Your heels together and you can go home.
  • 00:00:31.056 --> 00:00:33.358
  • And while i'm an advocate for renewable energy,
  • 00:00:33.358 --> 00:00:35.627
  • The concept in that discussion protected by the word science,
  • 00:00:35.627 --> 00:00:40.165
  • Well, it's become something held in greater reverence
  • 00:00:40.165 --> 00:00:42.300
  • Than most people's religious faith.
  • 00:00:42.300 --> 00:00:44.302
  • Our children are indoctrinated with it far more carefully,
  • 00:00:44.302 --> 00:00:47.105
  • Far more persistently
  • 00:00:47.105 --> 00:00:48.707
  • And candidly, far more routinely
  • 00:00:48.707 --> 00:00:50.408
  • Than they are ever taught a biblical worldview.
  • 00:00:50.408 --> 00:00:52.844
  • Now that's a problem.
  • 00:00:52.844 --> 00:00:54.246
  • And if you're not awake to it yet, please wake up.
  • 00:00:54.246 --> 00:00:57.649
  • The truth is that god made the earth and everything in it.
  • 00:00:57.649 --> 00:01:00.785
  • And when it comes to how we treat the world he created,
  • 00:01:00.785 --> 00:01:03.855
  • We may have taken many steps forward over the last 50 years.
  • 00:01:03.855 --> 00:01:06.658
  • They need to be celebrated just a bit.
  • 00:01:06.658 --> 00:01:08.193
  • Our air is much cleaner. our water is as well.
  • 00:01:08.193 --> 00:01:10.962
  • You can swim past the statue of liberty.
  • 00:01:10.962 --> 00:01:13.265
  • You can even fish in ohio's cuyahoga river.
  • 00:01:13.265 --> 00:01:15.901
  • That's the one that actually caught
  • 00:01:15.901 --> 00:01:17.169
  • Fire from the pollution that was in the water.
  • 00:01:17.169 --> 00:01:19.571
  • Harmful lead.
  • 00:01:19.571 --> 00:01:20.338
  • It's no longer in gasoline.
  • 00:01:20.338 --> 00:01:22.040
  • So you have seas have been phased out
  • 00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:24.075
  • And the ozone hole over antarctica.
  • 00:01:24.075 --> 00:01:26.211
  • It's healing.
  • 00:01:26.211 --> 00:01:27.412
  • Apparently, the bald eagles are even making a comeback.
  • 00:01:27.412 --> 00:01:29.447
  • You can see the baby eagles on live webcams now.
  • 00:01:29.447 --> 00:01:32.517
  • Renewable energy.
  • 00:01:32.951 --> 00:01:34.219
  • It's become a household word.
  • 00:01:34.219 --> 00:01:36.321
  • And the miles per gallon for cars
  • 00:01:36.321 --> 00:01:37.822
  • And trucks has increased substantially.
  • 00:01:37.822 --> 00:01:39.591
  • They still go just as fast.
  • 00:01:39.591 --> 00:01:41.693
  • We have an expert to help us unpack some of this.
  • 00:01:41.693 --> 00:01:44.362
  • Joining us tonight, the publisher of climate depot,
  • 00:01:44.362 --> 00:01:47.199
  • Mark morano.
  • 00:01:47.199 --> 00:01:48.400
  • Welcome back mark.
  • 00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:50.068
  • Thank you alan. happy to be here.
  • 00:01:50.068 --> 00:01:52.103
  • You know, when i look back at the improvements
  • 00:01:52.103 --> 00:01:54.306
  • We've made, i'm optimistic about what's next.
  • 00:01:54.306 --> 00:01:57.709
  • But it's hard to find the truth
  • 00:01:57.709 --> 00:01:59.311
  • When so much of the discussion is based on threats.
  • 00:01:59.311 --> 00:02:02.681
  • Listen to these comments.
  • 00:02:02.681 --> 00:02:04.849
  • And the only existential threat humanity faces,
  • 00:02:04.849 --> 00:02:07.719
  • Even more frightening than a and a nuclear
  • 00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:10.488
  • War is global warming.
  • 00:02:10.488 --> 00:02:13.592
  • I've heard young leaders talk with me about a term
  • 00:02:13.592 --> 00:02:16.795
  • They've coined called climate anxiety.
  • 00:02:16.795 --> 00:02:19.664
  • Period. right.
  • 00:02:19.664 --> 00:02:21.166
  • Which is fear of of the future and the unknown
  • 00:02:21.166 --> 00:02:24.903
  • Of whether it makes sense for you
  • 00:02:24.903 --> 00:02:26.538
  • To even think about having children.
  • 00:02:26.538 --> 00:02:28.206
  • That's what's boiling. the oceans.
  • 00:02:28.206 --> 00:02:30.041
  • Creating these atmospheric rivers and.
  • 00:02:30.041 --> 00:02:32.210
  • The rain bombs and sucking the moisture
  • 00:02:32.210 --> 00:02:34.579
  • Out of the land and creating the droughts and melting the ice.
  • 00:02:34.579 --> 00:02:38.149
  • Mark, if we didn't have experts like you to turn to,
  • 00:02:39.184 --> 00:02:41.720
  • I'd want to bury my head in the sand and just give up.
  • 00:02:41.720 --> 00:02:44.689
  • I know we've done a lot already, and aren't
  • 00:02:44.689 --> 00:02:46.458
  • Most of us ready to do even more?
  • 00:02:46.458 --> 00:02:49.461
  • Yes. okay, well, first i will address the video
  • 00:02:49.461 --> 00:02:52.097
  • You just played there. allen.
  • 00:02:52.097 --> 00:02:53.832
  • There is a thing called climate anxiety,
  • 00:02:53.832 --> 00:02:56.001
  • And it kind of looks like an electoral map.
  • 00:02:56.001 --> 00:02:58.403
  • It's the blue areas on the map.
  • 00:02:58.403 --> 00:03:00.705
  • The san francisco, the los angeles,
  • 00:03:00.705 --> 00:03:03.408
  • And the boston and chicago.
  • 00:03:03.408 --> 00:03:06.011
  • It's liberals who have been literally scared
  • 00:03:06.011 --> 00:03:08.346
  • To death since childhood about climate change,
  • 00:03:08.346 --> 00:03:10.582
  • And they suffer anxiety,
  • 00:03:10.582 --> 00:03:11.750
  • And it disproportionately does affect children,
  • 00:03:11.750 --> 00:03:14.419
  • But it's based on scare tactics.
  • 00:03:14.419 --> 00:03:16.521
  • It's based on extreme climate model scenarios.
  • 00:03:16.521 --> 00:03:19.824
  • In many cases by us.
  • 00:03:19.824 --> 00:03:21.726
  • Previously us funded government studies promoting
  • 00:03:21.726 --> 00:03:25.697
  • The most far fetched scenarios that we're all going to die.
  • 00:03:25.697 --> 00:03:29.634
  • And of course, i love al gore and talking about rain bombs,
  • 00:03:29.634 --> 00:03:32.704
  • Of all things.
  • 00:03:32.704 --> 00:03:33.672
  • But i look around, make sure no
  • 00:03:33.672 --> 00:03:34.939
  • Bombs are dropping on my head right
  • 00:03:34.939 --> 00:03:36.308
  • Now. it's a nice sunny day,
  • 00:03:36.308 --> 00:03:37.509
  • So i think i'm safe from the rain bombs.
  • 00:03:37.509 --> 00:03:39.744
  • Now, you're out of a very good point.
  • 00:03:39.744 --> 00:03:41.179
  • You mentioned the cuyahoga river
  • 00:03:41.179 --> 00:03:42.681
  • And how filthy was the first earth day,
  • 00:03:42.681 --> 00:03:44.849
  • Which, by the way, we're coming up now.
  • 00:03:44.849 --> 00:03:47.118
  • This is the 55th plus day
  • 00:03:47.118 --> 00:03:50.655
  • Coming up on, april 22nd,
  • 00:03:50.655 --> 00:03:53.892
  • And this is on april 22nd.
  • 00:03:53.892 --> 00:03:56.528
  • And this day was originally
  • 00:03:56.528 --> 00:03:58.430
  • Started by a lot of people concerned,
  • 00:03:58.430 --> 00:04:00.198
  • As you mentioned, about rivers, about city,
  • 00:04:00.198 --> 00:04:02.100
  • Particularly city air quality, about the pollution,
  • 00:04:02.100 --> 00:04:04.669
  • About the countryside being litter.
  • 00:04:04.669 --> 00:04:06.905
  • And this is the greatest environmental success story
  • 00:04:06.905 --> 00:04:10.041
  • That since 1970,
  • 00:04:10.041 --> 00:04:11.976
  • The united states has radically improved our air quality,
  • 00:04:11.976 --> 00:04:16.014
  • Our water quality
  • 00:04:16.014 --> 00:04:17.415
  • All at the same time, including increasing population
  • 00:04:17.415 --> 00:04:20.852
  • And radical increases in economic growth.
  • 00:04:20.852 --> 00:04:23.688
  • We've done it through technological innovation
  • 00:04:23.688 --> 00:04:26.057
  • And by focusing and by raising awareness of these problems.
  • 00:04:26.057 --> 00:04:29.194
  • Industry is aware.
  • 00:04:29.194 --> 00:04:30.161
  • It became aware after the first earth day.
  • 00:04:30.161 --> 00:04:32.030
  • So i don't want to not all earth days.
  • 00:04:32.030 --> 00:04:34.165
  • I mean the idea, the original impetus.
  • 00:04:34.165 --> 00:04:36.267
  • There was a lot of nuts involved in earth day as well.
  • 00:04:36.267 --> 00:04:38.470
  • By the way, they were worried about
  • 00:04:38.470 --> 00:04:39.471
  • Manmade global cooling at the time in 1970
  • 00:04:39.471 --> 00:04:43.742
  • And not global warming.
  • 00:04:43.742 --> 00:04:45.110
  • They were warning of a coming ice age,
  • 00:04:45.110 --> 00:04:46.678
  • But there were many,
  • 00:04:46.678 --> 00:04:47.912
  • Particularly americans, who were just concerned
  • 00:04:47.912 --> 00:04:50.215
  • About the state of rivers and air.
  • 00:04:50.215 --> 00:04:51.983
  • And now, in 2025, world health organization
  • 00:04:51.983 --> 00:04:56.087
  • Even admits that the united states
  • 00:04:56.087 --> 00:04:57.689
  • Has among the cleanest air in the world.
  • 00:04:57.689 --> 00:04:59.691
  • We are the environmental success story of the world.
  • 00:04:59.691 --> 00:05:02.861
  • We need to reduce this climate anxiety,
  • 00:05:02.861 --> 00:05:05.630
  • The environmental anxiety.
  • 00:05:05.630 --> 00:05:07.198
  • And you can only do that with facts.
  • 00:05:07.198 --> 00:05:09.401
  • Well, one of the most talked
  • 00:05:10.001 --> 00:05:11.202
  • About so-called solutions as we go forward is wind energy.
  • 00:05:11.202 --> 00:05:15.440
  • It sounds good, but i still have no idea
  • 00:05:15.440 --> 00:05:17.675
  • How many windmills
  • 00:05:17.675 --> 00:05:18.810
  • It would take to create even 5% of the power we need.
  • 00:05:18.810 --> 00:05:21.613
  • Are they worth building on land, sea, or even at all?
  • 00:05:21.613 --> 00:05:25.183
  • Yeah, they're currently they're more of a boutique project,
  • 00:05:25.183 --> 00:05:28.887
  • Or maybe a small regional
  • 00:05:28.887 --> 00:05:30.722
  • Project in certain areas, or maybe a small nation
  • 00:05:30.722 --> 00:05:33.792
  • That has a lot of, you know,
  • 00:05:33.792 --> 00:05:34.859
  • Wind and space available that want to do it.
  • 00:05:34.859 --> 00:05:36.828
  • But here's what you need to know
  • 00:05:36.828 --> 00:05:37.629
  • About wind in the united states.
  • 00:05:37.629 --> 00:05:38.830
  • And we spent untold hundreds of you.
  • 00:05:38.830 --> 00:05:43.535
  • First of all, we spent trillions
  • 00:05:43.535 --> 00:05:44.769
  • On the whole inflation reduction act.
  • 00:05:44.769 --> 00:05:46.371
  • We spent 100 billion on obama's,
  • 00:05:46.371 --> 00:05:49.574
  • Green stimulus funding, wind and solar.
  • 00:05:49.574 --> 00:05:51.810
  • All these
  • 00:05:51.810 --> 00:05:53.011
  • Renewable energy projects as we banned their competition.
  • 00:05:53.011 --> 00:05:55.480
  • Now, think of muhammad ali as a lot of time.
  • 00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:58.216
  • I look back so imagine if he was going to fight george foreman.
  • 00:05:58.216 --> 00:06:01.953
  • And they said, i'm
  • 00:06:01.953 --> 00:06:03.321
  • Not going to let solomon in the ring,
  • 00:06:03.321 --> 00:06:04.789
  • But we're going to clear you,
  • 00:06:04.789 --> 00:06:05.790
  • The heavyweight champion of the world.
  • 00:06:05.790 --> 00:06:07.525
  • It doesn't work that way.
  • 00:06:07.525 --> 00:06:08.560
  • And so at the meeting, i am a climate activist
  • 00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:11.095
  • In academia, have done it, said he would win
  • 00:06:11.095 --> 00:06:13.097
  • With a person that cheaper than fossil fuels.
  • 00:06:13.097 --> 00:06:14.866
  • Oh, god. we need to burn fossil fuels.
  • 00:06:14.866 --> 00:06:17.268
  • We need to mandate and subsidize
  • 00:06:17.268 --> 00:06:19.103
  • Senator rand so that they can be competitive.
  • 00:06:19.103 --> 00:06:21.873
  • It doesn't sound like they're
  • 00:06:21.873 --> 00:06:22.640
  • That that good in the first place.
  • 00:06:22.640 --> 00:06:24.676
  • Less than 14% of u.s.
  • 00:06:24.676 --> 00:06:27.879
  • Electricity.
  • 00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:29.180
  • This is one that comes from sailing wind.
  • 00:06:29.180 --> 00:06:31.816
  • Despite all the massive subsidies and energy production.
  • 00:06:31.816 --> 00:06:36.287
  • Remember, solar. wind can't make anything.
  • 00:06:36.287 --> 00:06:38.223
  • This is just bad.
  • 00:06:38.223 --> 00:06:39.457
  • But their
  • 00:06:39.457 --> 00:06:40.425
  • Total energy production, the united states,
  • 00:06:40.425 --> 00:06:41.860
  • Is less than 5% combined.
  • 00:06:41.860 --> 00:06:44.028
  • There's no they're there.
  • 00:06:44.028 --> 00:06:46.164
  • 100 years ago, 80% of our energy came from fossil fuels.
  • 00:06:46.164 --> 00:06:49.200
  • Today, 80% of our energy comes from fossil fuels.
  • 00:06:49.200 --> 00:06:52.070
  • No matter how many subsidies, no matter how many,
  • 00:06:52.070 --> 00:06:55.907
  • Green stimulus is, are they?
  • 00:06:55.907 --> 00:06:57.375
  • Government tried to throw at it and they're not more friendly.
  • 00:06:57.375 --> 00:07:01.312
  • These takes half $1 million to build dad up from the earth,
  • 00:07:01.312 --> 00:07:05.617
  • To build one tesla style electric car battery.
  • 00:07:05.617 --> 00:07:09.420
  • And you mention wind.
  • 00:07:09.420 --> 00:07:10.622
  • To make a turbine, you have to extract
  • 00:07:10.622 --> 00:07:13.658
  • 900 tons of steel, 2500 tons of concrete,
  • 00:07:13.658 --> 00:07:16.661
  • And 45 tons of nonrenewable plastic.
  • 00:07:16.661 --> 00:07:20.398
  • Renewable energy
  • 00:07:20.798 --> 00:07:22.367
  • Really doesn't dig the earth out of that brady bunch 1970s.
  • 00:07:22.367 --> 00:07:25.870
  • Wait a little deep earth, right? what?
  • 00:07:25.870 --> 00:07:28.540
  • Who owns pretty much a monopoly on all that china, which is
  • 00:07:28.540 --> 00:07:32.544
  • Where we have to rely on for our ev and solar and wind.
  • 00:07:32.544 --> 00:07:35.780
  • It's not a good policy for the united states.
  • 00:07:35.780 --> 00:07:38.449
  • And luckily, we're literally reversing
  • 00:07:38.449 --> 00:07:40.618
  • Everything
  • 00:07:40.618 --> 00:07:41.819
  • That i'm talking about now with this whole previous policy.
  • 00:07:41.819 --> 00:07:45.323
  • Well, mark, please stay with us for another segment.
  • 00:07:45.323 --> 00:07:47.425
  • There is more to discuss as we welcome another spring.
  • 00:07:47.425 --> 00:07:50.762
  • And if you want to jump in with your thoughts
  • 00:07:51.696 --> 00:07:53.531
  • On the environmental debate,
  • 00:07:53.531 --> 00:07:54.599
  • You can go to our new website at aj now.com.
  • 00:07:54.599 --> 00:07:57.669
  • Later in the show, we'll talk about building a healthier world
  • 00:07:57.669 --> 00:08:00.939
  • Spiritually for today and the generations to come.
  • 00:08:00.939 --> 00:08:03.875
  • I'll be right back.
  • 00:08:03.875 --> 00:08:11.005
  • I'll be right back.
  • 00:08:11.005 --> 00:08:14.687
  • We're back now with the head of the climate depot, mark morano.
  • 00:08:15.888 --> 00:08:19.091
  • He was also part of the senior
  • 00:08:19.091 --> 00:08:20.559
  • Staff of the senate environment and public works committee.
  • 00:08:20.559 --> 00:08:23.729
  • He's the author of several good books,
  • 00:08:23.729 --> 00:08:25.698
  • Including the one called green fraud
  • 00:08:25.698 --> 00:08:28.400
  • Why the green new deal is even worse than you think.
  • 00:08:28.400 --> 00:08:32.071
  • Mark, i spent a lot of time in israel,
  • 00:08:32.071 --> 00:08:34.373
  • And i have personally seen
  • 00:08:34.373 --> 00:08:35.808
  • How they're leading the conversation
  • 00:08:35.808 --> 00:08:37.409
  • In many ways on sustainable farming.
  • 00:08:37.409 --> 00:08:39.578
  • You know, water has always been a scarce resource there,
  • 00:08:39.578 --> 00:08:42.381
  • But their desalination plants
  • 00:08:42.381 --> 00:08:43.849
  • Have turned a desert into an agricultural haven.
  • 00:08:43.849 --> 00:08:47.019
  • You'll find some of the best
  • 00:08:47.019 --> 00:08:47.853
  • Fruits and vegetables there today.
  • 00:08:47.853 --> 00:08:50.222
  • And that's all because they pioneered
  • 00:08:50.222 --> 00:08:51.690
  • The way on new technology.
  • 00:08:51.690 --> 00:08:53.525
  • What do you think about these kinds of changes?
  • 00:08:53.525 --> 00:08:55.961
  • That's
  • 00:08:56.161 --> 00:08:57.129
  • That's literally the driving force for why
  • 00:08:57.129 --> 00:09:00.265
  • Earth is happy on this earth day 2025.
  • 00:09:00.265 --> 00:09:04.236
  • That israel's done with the desalination plants.
  • 00:09:04.236 --> 00:09:06.238
  • California could learn a lot.
  • 00:09:06.238 --> 00:09:07.539
  • If you remember, they had the hydrants were empty.
  • 00:09:07.539 --> 00:09:09.975
  • And the reason was,
  • 00:09:09.975 --> 00:09:11.143
  • Well, we all we could do is get water from the ocean.
  • 00:09:11.143 --> 00:09:13.379
  • And it was saltwater and it was too corrosive.
  • 00:09:13.379 --> 00:09:15.547
  • Well,
  • 00:09:15.547 --> 00:09:16.081
  • I had been invested
  • 00:09:16.081 --> 00:09:17.383
  • In infrastructure like the desalination plants like israel.
  • 00:09:17.383 --> 00:09:20.619
  • You could have
  • 00:09:20.619 --> 00:09:21.720
  • Had actual water in california to put out those fires.
  • 00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:25.024
  • You have places that have come up with massive
  • 00:09:25.024 --> 00:09:26.925
  • Dike systems in the netherlands, which is,
  • 00:09:26.925 --> 00:09:30.763
  • Under water, essentially a lot of the cities.
  • 00:09:30.763 --> 00:09:32.798
  • And they've come up with great pump and design systems
  • 00:09:32.798 --> 00:09:35.501
  • Where they can literally survive at below sea level.
  • 00:09:35.501 --> 00:09:39.171
  • And then do other areas like sustainable forestry,
  • 00:09:39.171 --> 00:09:42.141
  • Where at 50 years ago, you know, you could cut forests
  • 00:09:42.141 --> 00:09:44.777
  • And you'd have clear cut and devastation.
  • 00:09:44.777 --> 00:09:46.779
  • It would take decades to recover.
  • 00:09:46.779 --> 00:09:48.580
  • Now they have so-called sustainable wall
  • 00:09:48.580 --> 00:09:51.450
  • Street where they come in, where you can do certain
  • 00:09:51.450 --> 00:09:54.153
  • Swaths of the land scientifically, calculated.
  • 00:09:54.153 --> 00:09:58.223
  • And within seven years you can't distinguish a large forest,
  • 00:09:58.223 --> 00:10:01.960
  • Very unlike forests in terms of plant species.
  • 00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.497
  • So the news has been so good.
  • 00:10:05.497 --> 00:10:07.966
  • And one last point on this is that donald
  • 00:10:07.966 --> 00:10:10.803
  • Trump is making the earth smile on this earth day 2025,
  • 00:10:10.803 --> 00:10:14.940
  • Because he is leading the way for western nations and europe,
  • 00:10:14.940 --> 00:10:18.744
  • In many cases, the elections and in germany and other places
  • 00:10:18.744 --> 00:10:21.980
  • Are forcing europeans to go back to domestic energy production,
  • 00:10:21.980 --> 00:10:26.385
  • Which is the same with the us and canada eventually,
  • 00:10:26.385 --> 00:10:29.254
  • Which is what we need.
  • 00:10:29.254 --> 00:10:30.456
  • Because when you produce energy with the highest environmental
  • 00:10:30.456 --> 00:10:34.326
  • Standards in western nations, and you have the,
  • 00:10:34.326 --> 00:10:38.530
  • Highest technological and human rights standards,
  • 00:10:38.530 --> 00:10:41.567
  • The earth benefits when you stop relying on energy
  • 00:10:41.567 --> 00:10:45.170
  • From the middle east, china, russia, venezuela
  • 00:10:45.170 --> 00:10:49.041
  • That is the dirtiest and most invasive forms of energy to get.
  • 00:10:49.041 --> 00:10:53.612
  • And it pains the earth, to use that,
  • 00:10:53.612 --> 00:10:56.081
  • A stupid phrase that the left likes to.
  • 00:10:56.081 --> 00:10:58.784
  • And i said,
  • 00:10:58.784 --> 00:10:59.451
  • If they can speak for the earth,
  • 00:10:59.451 --> 00:11:01.120
  • The climate activists and the environmental left,
  • 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:03.622
  • I said, i can speak for the earth too.
  • 00:11:03.622 --> 00:11:05.591
  • The earth is very happy with the orange one
  • 00:11:05.591 --> 00:11:07.760
  • And president right now.
  • 00:11:07.760 --> 00:11:09.561
  • And my co2, by the way, equals in more fertilization
  • 00:11:09.561 --> 00:11:12.831
  • Of our atmosphere.
  • 00:11:12.831 --> 00:11:13.532
  • Even nasa
  • 00:11:13.532 --> 00:11:14.733
  • Has admitted that we have the greening of planet earth.
  • 00:11:14.733 --> 00:11:17.770
  • As co2 levels go up, there is no climate crisis.
  • 00:11:17.770 --> 00:11:20.639
  • More and more scientists speaking out.
  • 00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:22.407
  • Most recently, the 2022 nobel prize winner in physics,
  • 00:11:22.407 --> 00:11:26.512
  • Doctor john clauser.
  • 00:11:26.512 --> 00:11:27.546
  • So it's been an amazing time.
  • 00:11:27.546 --> 00:11:29.648
  • It's really, truly a time for us to celebrate
  • 00:11:29.648 --> 00:11:31.850
  • Our accomplishments at earth day 2025.
  • 00:11:31.850 --> 00:11:35.154
  • Well, you have very aptly pointed out
  • 00:11:35.154 --> 00:11:36.989
  • That there's good reason for hope.
  • 00:11:36.989 --> 00:11:38.624
  • But i'd like to ask you about the business of green companies,
  • 00:11:38.624 --> 00:11:42.327
  • Especially some in china, that are only concerned
  • 00:11:42.327 --> 00:11:44.963
  • About selling products that are supposed to help.
  • 00:11:44.963 --> 00:11:47.332
  • But are they really only out to make the green dollar bills?
  • 00:11:47.332 --> 00:11:50.502
  • How can we distinguish between the good and the bad requested?
  • 00:11:50.502 --> 00:11:54.173
  • Okay, there's actually two simple ways
  • 00:11:54.173 --> 00:11:56.708
  • To look at their actions and look at their circumstances.
  • 00:11:56.708 --> 00:12:00.646
  • So in the case of china,
  • 00:12:00.646 --> 00:12:02.581
  • Yeah, they are the leader in solar and wind.
  • 00:12:02.581 --> 00:12:05.217
  • And they're providing all of this for the rest of the world.
  • 00:12:05.217 --> 00:12:08.220
  • People are going, oh, china has got
  • 00:12:08.220 --> 00:12:11.223
  • China is building 1 or 2 coal plants per week.
  • 00:12:11.223 --> 00:12:14.459
  • They have most of the world's
  • 00:12:14.459 --> 00:12:15.527
  • Coal production as a monopoly at the moment,
  • 00:12:15.527 --> 00:12:18.263
  • And they have no interest in the green agenda
  • 00:12:18.263 --> 00:12:20.866
  • Other than how it can benefit themselves.
  • 00:12:20.866 --> 00:12:23.402
  • And they're digging up the earth with the lowest
  • 00:12:23.402 --> 00:12:25.204
  • Standards and buying up,
  • 00:12:25.204 --> 00:12:26.471
  • Essentially going in places like the condo at chinese
  • 00:12:26.471 --> 00:12:29.341
  • Owned farms with child labor.
  • 00:12:29.341 --> 00:12:31.476
  • I mean, it's a horrendous situation.
  • 00:12:31.476 --> 00:12:33.579
  • And the other way you can tell the people in green energy is
  • 00:12:33.579 --> 00:12:36.582
  • They're out for the buck.
  • 00:12:36.582 --> 00:12:38.116
  • And if you look at the inflation reduction act and how many,
  • 00:12:38.116 --> 00:12:41.587
  • Recipients has gotten that money now approaching
  • 00:12:42.521 --> 00:12:44.690
  • $2 trillion in funding, the money is going out so much.
  • 00:12:44.690 --> 00:12:48.760
  • Any talk of cutting it and people
  • 00:12:48.760 --> 00:12:50.529
  • Start screaming bloody murder all like we can.
  • 00:12:50.529 --> 00:12:53.065
  • That's where you know, something's up is when people's
  • 00:12:53.065 --> 00:12:56.034
  • Tire business model depends on sucking off the us taxpayer.
  • 00:12:56.034 --> 00:13:01.640
  • Resources.
  • 00:13:01.940 --> 00:13:03.041
  • And that's when, you know, they're not really serious
  • 00:13:03.041 --> 00:13:05.043
  • About saving the earth, but about making money.
  • 00:13:05.043 --> 00:13:07.179
  • And that's what we're seeing in the in the green energy world.
  • 00:13:07.179 --> 00:13:09.648
  • Seeing it since the lander won obama's green energy
  • 00:13:09.648 --> 00:13:12.017
  • Stimulus, we're seeing it now
  • 00:13:12.017 --> 00:13:13.719
  • In many cases, these companies form they take it.
  • 00:13:13.719 --> 00:13:16.622
  • We're seeing what stacey abrams we saw it with john podesta.
  • 00:13:16.622 --> 00:13:19.024
  • We're talking tens of millions of dollars.
  • 00:13:19.024 --> 00:13:21.526
  • They form a group.
  • 00:13:21.526 --> 00:13:22.861
  • The group goes bankrupt.
  • 00:13:22.861 --> 00:13:24.129
  • They form another group, the same board of directors.
  • 00:13:24.129 --> 00:13:26.131
  • They can keep doing it
  • 00:13:26.131 --> 00:13:27.299
  • Because the taxpayer money is endless for the subsidy.
  • 00:13:27.299 --> 00:13:30.068
  • We're the county and cal counties in california
  • 00:13:30.068 --> 00:13:33.005
  • Didn't have enough eurocrats to spend money
  • 00:13:33.005 --> 00:13:36.174
  • That the inflation reduction act from biden
  • 00:13:36.174 --> 00:13:38.143
  • For green energy is spending.
  • 00:13:38.143 --> 00:13:39.745
  • They literally
  • 00:13:39.745 --> 00:13:40.812
  • The money is sitting unspent because there's aren't
  • 00:13:40.812 --> 00:13:42.915
  • Bureaucrats to spend it.
  • 00:13:42.915 --> 00:13:44.082
  • It's like a green tax windfall
  • 00:13:44.082 --> 00:13:46.785
  • That does nothing for the climate but enriches
  • 00:13:46.785 --> 00:13:49.621
  • A lot of people, particularly democratic donors in this case.
  • 00:13:49.621 --> 00:13:53.525
  • Well, finally, prior to seeing you today,
  • 00:13:54.359 --> 00:13:56.161
  • You shared an environmental story
  • 00:13:56.161 --> 00:13:57.729
  • That says pretty much all you need to know
  • 00:13:57.729 --> 00:13:59.631
  • About how the green advocates continue to stir the pot.
  • 00:13:59.631 --> 00:14:03.135
  • The headline said, bad news for man's best friend.
  • 00:14:03.135 --> 00:14:06.438
  • Dogs are environmental villains.
  • 00:14:06.438 --> 00:14:08.874
  • Please tell me that it was an april 1st prank.
  • 00:14:08.874 --> 00:14:11.710
  • Which is not the goal for this prank.
  • 00:14:11.710 --> 00:14:13.245
  • This was in the uk guardian, mother jones magazine,
  • 00:14:13.245 --> 00:14:16.515
  • The dogs and pet ownership
  • 00:14:16.515 --> 00:14:19.918
  • Cats as well, telling us that essentially their carbon
  • 00:14:19.918 --> 00:14:23.121
  • Footprint is huge,
  • 00:14:23.121 --> 00:14:24.289
  • That they're destructive to the environment,
  • 00:14:24.289 --> 00:14:26.558
  • And they're hinting that we need limits and,
  • 00:14:26.558 --> 00:14:29.328
  • And come out of restrictions on this now,
  • 00:14:29.328 --> 00:14:31.563
  • This is on the heels of previous studies.
  • 00:14:31.563 --> 00:14:33.966
  • This is fascinating because they've said that
  • 00:14:33.966 --> 00:14:36.234
  • Dogs, according to studies, will be the first victims
  • 00:14:36.234 --> 00:14:38.904
  • Of climate change.
  • 00:14:38.904 --> 00:14:39.838
  • So dogs are causing climate change,
  • 00:14:39.838 --> 00:14:42.774
  • Whether that's a victim of climate change.
  • 00:14:42.774 --> 00:14:45.277
  • And then another study and i'm not making this up.
  • 00:14:45.277 --> 00:14:47.279
  • This was in the uk independent a couple of years ago.
  • 00:14:47.279 --> 00:14:49.648
  • Global warming causing dogs to become depressed,
  • 00:14:49.648 --> 00:14:52.985
  • Say a pet behavior less so.
  • 00:14:52.985 --> 00:14:56.221
  • Dogs are causing global warming,
  • 00:14:56.221 --> 00:14:57.889
  • Dogs are being affected by at the most
  • 00:14:57.889 --> 00:15:00.359
  • And they're getting depressed over their impact.
  • 00:15:00.359 --> 00:15:02.227
  • So we have here,
  • 00:15:02.227 --> 00:15:03.562
  • According to the experts allen self loathing canines.
  • 00:15:03.562 --> 00:15:08.133
  • I don't think i've ever seen
  • 00:15:08.133 --> 00:15:09.534
  • That in my life, but apparently these dogs
  • 00:15:09.534 --> 00:15:11.503
  • Are going around with the weight of the world
  • 00:15:11.503 --> 00:15:13.271
  • Because they're causing
  • 00:15:13.271 --> 00:15:14.306
  • Global warming. this is the wackiness
  • 00:15:14.306 --> 00:15:16.341
  • That passes for climate science today.
  • 00:15:16.341 --> 00:15:18.410
  • Well, mark morano, thank you for coming back to the show.
  • 00:15:19.511 --> 00:15:22.614

  • Okay.
  • 00:15:25.217 --> 00:15:26.184

  • Coming up next.
  • 00:15:43.268 --> 00:15:44.169
  • Hope. truth salt and light.
  • 00:15:44.169 --> 00:15:46.304
  • It's all there if you know where to look.
  • 00:15:46.304 --> 00:15:47.973
  • Stay right where you are.
  • 00:15:47.973 --> 00:15:56.002
  • Stay right where you are.
  • 00:15:56.002 --> 00:15:59.852
  • You know, honestly, i like to be outdoors.
  • 00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:02.789
  • Just about any activity outdoors is refreshing and renewing
  • 00:16:02.789 --> 00:16:05.825
  • To me. i'm an advocate.
  • 00:16:05.825 --> 00:16:07.760
  • In fact,
  • 00:16:07.760 --> 00:16:08.961
  • We've been given a stewardship assignment over this planet,
  • 00:16:08.961 --> 00:16:11.464
  • But we're told not to worship it.
  • 00:16:11.464 --> 00:16:13.966
  • You know, the fancy word these days is climate science.
  • 00:16:13.966 --> 00:16:16.836
  • When they really want
  • 00:16:16.836 --> 00:16:17.937
  • To get our attention, they call something science.
  • 00:16:17.937 --> 00:16:20.640
  • Well, in 2018, climate activist greta thunberg
  • 00:16:20.640 --> 00:16:23.976
  • Fired off an urgent tweet. this is real.
  • 00:16:23.976 --> 00:16:26.546
  • The tweet said, quote, a top climate scientist is warning
  • 00:16:26.546 --> 00:16:29.682
  • That climate change will wipe out all of humanity
  • 00:16:29.682 --> 00:16:32.819
  • Unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years.
  • 00:16:32.819 --> 00:16:36.055
  • Well, here we are, seven years later
  • 00:16:36.823 --> 00:16:38.491
  • And people still on the planet still with us.
  • 00:16:38.491 --> 00:16:41.494
  • What has not vanished is humanity in the earth,
  • 00:16:41.494 --> 00:16:44.764
  • But rather just that tweet.
  • 00:16:44.764 --> 00:16:46.365
  • It's gone.
  • 00:16:46.365 --> 00:16:47.767
  • While the world is plunging
  • 00:16:47.767 --> 00:16:49.068
  • Towards destruction and human characters
  • 00:16:49.068 --> 00:16:50.870
  • Deteriorating and violence is exploding,
  • 00:16:50.870 --> 00:16:53.339
  • While millions of children are being terminated
  • 00:16:53.339 --> 00:16:55.208
  • In the womb,
  • 00:16:55.208 --> 00:16:55.875
  • And all sorts of atrocities,
  • 00:16:55.875 --> 00:16:57.610
  • Horrors and genocides are being perpetrated.
  • 00:16:57.610 --> 00:17:00.613
  • They want us to change our light bulbs
  • 00:17:00.613 --> 00:17:02.815
  • Or to stop using a gas stove.
  • 00:17:02.815 --> 00:17:04.717
  • They tell us that fossil fuels
  • 00:17:04.717 --> 00:17:06.719
  • Are the greatest expression of evil amongst us.
  • 00:17:06.719 --> 00:17:10.123
  • And again, i'm an advocate for taking care of the world
  • 00:17:10.123 --> 00:17:12.158
  • In which we live.
  • 00:17:12.158 --> 00:17:13.326
  • But i urge you
  • 00:17:13.326 --> 00:17:14.260
  • That first we have to take care
  • 00:17:14.260 --> 00:17:15.528
  • Of the relationship we have with the living god.
  • 00:17:15.528 --> 00:17:18.164
  • Every generation have to give attention to our hearts,
  • 00:17:18.164 --> 00:17:21.834
  • Or the environment will be an issue.
  • 00:17:21.834 --> 00:17:23.536
  • We will destroy the world and all of us that are in it.
  • 00:17:23.536 --> 00:17:26.672
  • Now that's the truth. if we'll choose god.
  • 00:17:26.672 --> 00:17:28.608
  • There are reasons for hope.
  • 00:17:28.608 --> 00:17:30.209
  • When i return, i'm going to read
  • 00:17:30.209 --> 00:17:31.711
  • And respond to some of your emails.
  • 00:17:31.711 --> 00:17:40.006
  • And respond to some of your emails.
  • 00:17:40.006 --> 00:17:44.090
  • And then we're going to read some of your emails.
  • 00:17:45.091 --> 00:17:46.626
  • It's one of my favorite parts of the program.
  • 00:17:46.626 --> 00:17:48.961
  • Nancy commented on the episode with coach joe kennedy,
  • 00:17:48.961 --> 00:17:52.131
  • Our government took god out of our schools,
  • 00:17:52.131 --> 00:17:54.100
  • And now we can see how messed up
  • 00:17:54.100 --> 00:17:55.368
  • The schools and children have become.
  • 00:17:55.368 --> 00:17:57.703
  • I hope we have all reached the point
  • 00:17:57.703 --> 00:17:59.138
  • That we can see how important
  • 00:17:59.138 --> 00:18:00.339
  • It is for us, our children, our schools and our nation.
  • 00:18:00.339 --> 00:18:03.376
  • Now, we should keep prayer
  • 00:18:03.376 --> 00:18:04.310
  • Because we need god more today than ever.
  • 00:18:04.310 --> 00:18:06.979
  • Amen.
  • 00:18:06.979 --> 00:18:08.247
  • Nancy, i think your diagnosis and your solution are accurate.
  • 00:18:08.247 --> 00:18:11.184
  • Mark in california noted we're on a fixed income
  • 00:18:11.184 --> 00:18:14.954
  • And our children are still in the home.
  • 00:18:14.954 --> 00:18:16.522
  • They have developmental challenges.
  • 00:18:16.522 --> 00:18:18.558
  • We are ready for the hardships of change.
  • 00:18:18.558 --> 00:18:21.460
  • Hopefully the country will benefit
  • 00:18:21.460 --> 00:18:22.795
  • From the new administration.
  • 00:18:22.795 --> 00:18:24.430
  • America is not a democracy.
  • 00:18:24.430 --> 00:18:25.998
  • We're a republic much better
  • 00:18:25.998 --> 00:18:28.000
  • Than anything else in the world sphere.
  • 00:18:28.000 --> 00:18:30.169
  • Praying is good.
  • 00:18:30.169 --> 00:18:31.237
  • Actions. put feet on your prayers.
  • 00:18:31.237 --> 00:18:33.773
  • We need to get back to the founding
  • 00:18:33.773 --> 00:18:35.208
  • Principles of our government.
  • 00:18:35.208 --> 00:18:36.842
  • God is the foundation of our government and our nation.
  • 00:18:36.842 --> 00:18:40.079
  • Mark, you are telling a lot of truth,
  • 00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:42.081
  • And i thank you for the reminder that the change begins
  • 00:18:42.081 --> 00:18:44.784
  • At our kitchen table
  • 00:18:44.784 --> 00:18:46.485
  • And then it expands into our families, our holiday tables,
  • 00:18:46.485 --> 00:18:49.589
  • And ultimately into our friends group.
  • 00:18:49.589 --> 00:18:51.591
  • We are the change agents, far more than the politicians
  • 00:18:51.591 --> 00:18:55.094
  • That sit in their ivory towers and distant places.
  • 00:18:55.094 --> 00:18:58.798
  • And finally, dennis jay from maine
  • 00:18:59.565 --> 00:19:01.867
  • Said, i really appreciate all you're doing with alan
  • 00:19:01.867 --> 00:19:03.769
  • Jackson now, culture
  • 00:19:03.769 --> 00:19:04.971
  • And christianity and world outreach church.
  • 00:19:04.971 --> 00:19:07.373
  • It's refreshing to hear the truth
  • 00:19:07.373 --> 00:19:08.674
  • Told, and i admire you using your voice.
  • 00:19:08.674 --> 00:19:11.310
  • If more people would, what a difference we could make.
  • 00:19:11.310 --> 00:19:14.080
  • Keep going. it's an encouragement to all.
  • 00:19:14.080 --> 00:19:16.549
  • And this comes from a guy
  • 00:19:16.549 --> 00:19:17.717
  • Who lives in maine with, let's say, not a good governor.
  • 00:19:17.717 --> 00:19:21.387
  • We are praying for a change.
  • 00:19:21.387 --> 00:19:23.389
  • It will take a change in the
  • 00:19:23.389 --> 00:19:24.423
  • Hearts of god's people here first.
  • 00:19:24.423 --> 00:19:26.826
  • Amen.
  • 00:19:26.826 --> 00:19:27.793
  • Dennis, we will join you in those prayers.
  • 00:19:27.793 --> 00:19:30.229
  • Just a reminder.
  • 00:19:30.229 --> 00:19:31.731
  • You know, we are in the process
  • 00:19:31.731 --> 00:19:32.932
  • Of building a community of trust,
  • 00:19:32.932 --> 00:19:34.934
  • And we would love to have as many people
  • 00:19:34.934 --> 00:19:36.636
  • As possible involved.
  • 00:19:36.636 --> 00:19:38.404
  • There's something you can do.
  • 00:19:38.404 --> 00:19:40.139
  • Tell a friend to watch the show.
  • 00:19:40.139 --> 00:19:42.041
  • It's live at 7 p.m.
  • 00:19:42.041 --> 00:19:43.309
  • Eastern time, 6 p.m.
  • 00:19:43.309 --> 00:19:44.477
  • Central, or any time on youtube.
  • 00:19:44.477 --> 00:19:47.046
  • Fact you can go to aj now.com for the latest episode.
  • 00:19:47.046 --> 00:19:50.216
  • You can send a comment
  • 00:19:50.216 --> 00:19:51.350
  • Or even purchase my new book, angels, demons and you.
  • 00:19:51.350 --> 00:19:54.887
  • Thanks for helping to share the word with others.
  • 00:19:54.887 --> 00:19:57.156
  • Truth matters in the hope it will spread.
  • 00:19:57.156 --> 00:20:00.393
  • I'm alan jackson. you have a nice evening.
  • 00:20:00.393 --> 00:20:00.393
