The Heartland Institute and Heartland UK/Europe have been in Poland and Hungary this week, meeting with leaders of the conservative movement and top politicians. Opposition to Net Zero in Europe is real—and growing. Just a few years ago, even right-leaning public figures were reluctant to publicly oppose the Big Green agenda, and hardly ever spoke of it even in private conversations. Today, climate realism has become a main plank of center-right politics and policy.Heartland Institute President James Taylor and Heartland UK/Europe Director Lois Perry join the show LIVE from Budapest to report on this shift—and take your questions—at 1 p.m. ET.In Episode #159 of The Heartland Institute's The Climate Realism Show, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, H. Sterling Burnett, and Jim Lakely cover the rise of climate realism in Europe and the Crazy Climate News of the Week. That includes: an alarmist imploring us not to “shatter the climate,” climate clergy livestreaming their climate depression marathon, whether cows dream of electric grills, and the validity of a stack of Biden climate executive orders signed by autopen.Be sure to join the chat—we'll show your comments and answer your questions!

Donald Trump achieved a major political and policy victory on Thursday when the U.S. House of Representatives passed what he calls his “Big Beautiful Bill.” The less-creative name is the budget reconciliation bill, which presidents for years have used to implement large parts of their agenda. (That's how we got “Obamacare.”)The bill includes many of Trump's economic policy promises, such as tax cuts, but also rolls back much of the “green” energy and climate policies the Biden administration imposed via the Inflation Reduction Act.Join Heartland's Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, H. Sterling Burnett, Jim Lakely, and special guest Steve Milloy LIVE at 1 p.m. ET for Episode #58 of The Climate Realism Show. We'll break down the good, the bad, and the disappointing in the Big Beautiful Bill. We'll also cover the Crazy Climate News of the Week and answer your questions in the chat.

A new study from the University of Alabama in Huntsville addresses the question of how much the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect is responsible for the higher temperatures at weather stations across the world. Dr. Roy Spencer and Dr. John Christy have spent several years developing a novel method that quantifies, for the first time, the average UHI warming effects related to population density. Their finding: no less than 65% of “runaway global warming” is not caused by our emissions of carbon dioxide, but by the urbanization of the world.Dr. Spencer will join us to go over his findings. We'll also cover the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including an absurd new bit of unscientific propaganda from the U.S. Climate Reference Network at NOAA, wonder if the sun is setting on wide-scale solar energy, and discuss how alarmists refuse to see that we live in a climactic “golden age”—and more.Join Heartland's Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, H.

A new paper by Dr. Judith Curry, one of the world's most prominent scientists skeptical of a looming human-caused climate catastrophe, and economist Harry DeAngelo cautions investors and the public that “the apocalyptic climate narrative is a seriously flawed guide for public policy.” Why? “Because it radically overstates the risks to humanity from continued global warming.” Wide-scale suppression of fossil fuel use will not measurably change future temperatures, but “a sharp decline in quality of life would surely ensue.”We are proud to welcome Dr. Curry back to the show to dig deeper into her paper. We will also cover the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including a “die-in” at NOAA, how the polar ice crisis narrative is melting, Bernie Sanders wanting to ban gasoline cars but still flying private jets, and why climate change is not causing kids to miss more school days.

In mid-April, Spain's socialist government bragged that, for the first time, the nation was powered by 100 percent “renewable” energy—mostly solar and wind. One week later, Spain, Portugal, parts of France, and several other countries suffered the largest peacetime blackout in their histories. Net Zero came to Europe all right—as in zero energy. We were perhaps seconds away from nearly the entire continent going dark. Yet again, wind, solar, and other “renewables” proved they simply cannot generate the consistent power needed to keep a complex electricity grid stable. We've been warning about this for a while, and today we'll break down exactly what happened.The Heartland Institute's Sterling Burnett, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely will also cover some “Crazy Climate News of the Week,” including the federal government scrapping the so-called “social cost of carbon,” NASA's climate-alarmism office above the Seinfeld diner getting shut down, and a newly minted map of climate anxiety.

In news that has climate alarmists in an even greater panic, the Trump administration is ending funding for the U.S. Global Change Research Program, the panel that produced the federal government's National Climate Assessment every four years. Several officials in the office have reportedly been fired, and Trump's NASA has canceled the contract with the firm that coordinates the production of the National Climate Assessment. Defenders of the program say the report has been a “comprehensive look at climate change,” but has that ever been true?The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely will discuss this topic and also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week.

The Net Zero project in Great Britain, so the country does it's part to stop climate change, has a true believer behind it in leftist Prime Minister Keir Starmer. But recent opinion polls show the public is starting to turn dramatically against it, especially when the economic costs become increasingly real. A London Times poll in November found that 92% of the British public viewed Labour's specific Net Zero plans—particularly the 2030 clean power goal—as unrealistic. Despite a foolish drive to “deindustrialize” the UK, force residents to buy expensive heat pumps, and reducing agriculture, the government's own Climate Change Committee frets that the efforts are woefully inadequate. Is the whole project in danger of collapsing due to the weight of its utter infeasibility? Or is that wishful thinking for the people of Britain and climate realists worldwide?The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely will discuss this topic and more with special guest Lois Perry, the director of Heartland UK/Europe. We will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including the closing of an EPA museum that no one knew existed, how clinical climate anxiety continues to rise, and how global warming is causing your dog to stress out.

The scientific community and the media are focused almost exclusively by how greenhouse gas emissions affect the climate — from power plants to automobiles to your fireplace to your gas stove, and even cow farts. But what about that big ball of gas in the sky? Why does it get short shrift when it comes to the causes of climate change?The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely will discuss this topic, asked for by many of the show's fans, with one of the leading solar and climate experts in the world: Dr. Willie Soon. We will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including a global warming conference that got snowed in, how climate change is affecting your naps, a promise by the crazies in Just Stop Oil to cease all its childish “direct action” to save the planet, and a debunking of human-caused climate change causing cherry blossoms to bloom too early.SUPPORT THE SHOW! https://donate.heartland.org/campaign/599325/donateJoin us LIVE at 1 p.m. ET for every episode of The Climate Realism show and we will answer your questions in the chat.WILLIE SOON'S presentation as a PDF: https://heartland.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Willie-Soon-March28-2025-slides-for-Heartland-podcast.pdf In The Tank broadcasts LIVE every Thursday at 12pm CT on on The Heartland Institute YouTube channel.

Big news this week as EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin has reportedly told the White House it should officially abandon the ruling that greenhouse gases pose a threat to human health and welfare. The so-called “endangerment finding” for carbon dioxide and methane emissions forms the backbone of government regulations to “fight climate change” by heavily regulating everything from power plants to automobiles to stoves. Will President Trump repeal the endangerment finding? Can he do it unilaterally? We will discuss.Also, NOAA has “homogenized” the temperature data again. What does that mean? And does it correct the historical record, or distort it to support the alarmist global warming narrative?In “climate grift” news, Climate Crusader Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse has been caught backing legislation that funneled millions of taxpayer dollars to his wife's nonprofit organization. How convenient, and corrupt.And good news, everyone! The absurd plot of the climate disaster movie The Day After Tomorrow is not actually going to happen, despite alarmist “scientists” claiming it could be imminent.

Elon Musk's DOGE crew continues to shine a light on how our federal government operates, and it is exposing more climate grift than even the most cynical among us could have imagined. The latest involves the EPA giving failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams $2 billion to expand "clean energy by prioritizing housing, equity, and resilience." Her organization, Power Forward Communities, says it will install heat pumps, solar panels, EV chargers, and other "green" technology. Does Abrams have any expertise in this field? No. In fact, her organization incorporated itself with $100 in the bank just months before receiving $2 billion of our tax money. The Washington Free Beacon also reported this week that the man Biden put in charge of the EPA's "Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund" funneled $5 billion to his former employer, something called the Coalition for Green Capital.The climate grifters are being exposed, and the EPA is trying to claw these billions of dollars back. But how deep does the corruption go? We're bringing in Steve Milloy of the Energy and Environmental Legal Institute, an EPA transition team member in Trump's first term, to get a handle on it. The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, H. Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including a look at NOAA data showing the second-biggest month-to-month temperature drop since 2009.

The good news for climate realists and better governance in the Trump administration is piling up so fast it is difficult to keep up. As we covered on this show on December 6, a bit of undercover journalism by Project Veritas exposed a left-wing staffer at the Environmental Protection Agency admitting that he and others were trying to get billions of our tax money “out as fast as possible” before the Trump administration arrived in January and put a stop to it. “It truly feels like we're on the Titanic and we're throwing gold bars off the edge,” laughed Brent Efron, former “special advisor for implementation” at EPA. Well, new EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin announced this week that he has jumped into his submersible and snatched the gold bars ($20 billion) out of the hands of unaccountable lefty nonprofit “NGOs” and returned them to the treasury. The endless flow of our tax money going to environmental extremists groups who advocate against America's interest seems to be coming to an endThe Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely, will also talk about how the Paris Climate Agreement seems to be breaking apart, provide a media “Climate Fact Check” for January, check in on the continuing failure of EVs, show you what a “dying coyote” climate protest looks and sounds like, and more.DONATE to support the show. http://heartland.org/tcrs

President Trump has struck the Biden administration's climate and energy policy like a hurricane – from increasing energy exploration and extraction, to letting 1,000 employees at the Environmental Protection Agency know they could be fired at any time, to taking all mentions of climate change from the website of the Department of Agriculture, and more. But what will be the Trump Effect on the global climate agenda? Will the dedication to reorder the economies and societies of the world to “save the planet” being to crumble?

The historic and devastating fires in Los Angeles exposed the incompetence of leaders such as Gov. Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass. So how do state legislators want to address that? By allowing victims who had their lives destroyed sue Big Oil. Of course. The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts and Jim Lakely blow holes in that absurd political stunt and also discuss other recent to abuse the courts to push climate alarmism.Also, Lee Zeldin has just started his first week as administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, and already the environmental left is terrified that the days of considering human emissions of carbon dioxide are coming to an end. We will dig deeper into the EPA's “endangerment finding” for CO2 and whether it can be overturned in the next four years. We will also cover some of the “Crazy Climate News of the Week.”

President Trump wasted no time after his inauguration on Monday reversing all of his predecessor's executive orders that made climate alarmism and “green” energy the focus of American government. He didn't just reverse bad policies, and pull us out of the Paris Climate Agreement, he went farther than he did in his first term to ramp up American energy production and rein in an Environmental Protection Agency that regulated far beyond its mandate. Among at least 47 climate- and energy-related EOs signed in the first 24 hours of his swearing-in was one tackling what has long served as the keystone of limitless environmental regulation: the “endangerment finding” for carbon dioxide emissions. May we finally see the end of the EPA's abuse of its regulatory power?The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely are joined by special guest Myron Ebell, who was on President Trump's EPA Transition Team for his first term to break down what these reversals of radical climate and energy policy will mean for America and the world.

May we finally see the end of the EPA's abuse of its regulatory power?The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely are joined by special guest Myron Ebell, who was on President Trump's EPA Transition Team for his first term to break down what these reversals of radical climate and energy policy will mean for America and the world. We will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week.DONATE: https://donate.heartland.org/campaign/599325/donate

Senate committee rooms on Capitol Hill were buzzing with activity this week as many of President Trump's picks for cabinet posts were underway. Three of the key hearings on climate and energy policy were Lee Zeldin for EPA, Doug Burgum for Interior, and Chris Wright for Energy. We hope you caught Heartland's two three-hour long “watch parties” with gavel-to-gavel coverage this week, but there's still more to examine. What did the hearing performances of Trump's picks say about how they will serve in their roles? Which federal agency of the three needs the most work to change its purpose? And can these appointments succeed in carrying out Trump's agenda in the face of a deeply entrenched federal bureaucracy that is opposed to almost all of Trump's major climate and energy goals?The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, H. Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely will dive deeper into that topic. Plus, we'll review some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including a deep freeze that's on the way for most of the continental United States.

Historic wildfires have destroyed thousands of homes and businesses in Los Angeles County. Many homes of the rich and famous in Pacific Palisades, Malibu, and Pasadena have been reduced to rubble and ash. Entire neighborhoods were completely destroyed, and the fires have been blamed for at least five deaths. The speed at which the fires spread caught firefighters and residents off guard. Fed by hurricane-strength Santa Ana winds, embers were flying through the air seemingly everywhere and with no let-up. Climate alarmists have pinned the blame on human-caused climate change, but that is not truth.On Episode #140 of The Climate Realism Show, The Heartland Institute's H. Sterling Burnett, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely welcome U.S. Rep. Doug LaMalfa (R-CA) and CFACT's Chris Martz to cover the LA fires and some of the “Crazy Climate News of the Week.” There's been some fascinating news since our two-week hiatus, some of it good. Blackrock and JP Morgan are the latest financial giants to drop out of the Net-Zero Banking Alliance, Michael Mann experienced his first-ever setback in his lawfare against climate realists, and Biden tries to tie Trump's hands on drilling while also trying to ban some tankless water heaters on his way out of the White House.

Elon Musk's latest fortune was built on his Tesla electric vehicles, helped in no small measure by federal tax credits so more people could afford to buy the luxury items. For years, he's marketed them as a way to help wean the world of oil and stop the imminent “climate change meltdown.” But The Washington Post reports that Musk's abandonment of left-wing, trendy, virtue-signaling political views not only eventually led him to Donald Trump, but maybe out of the Climate Cult, altogether. And if Musk makes it OK to leave, will more prominent business leaders and cultural trend setters soon follow?On Episode #138 of The Climate Realism Show, The Heartland Institute's H. Sterling Burnett, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely will cover that story, as well as some of the “Crazy Climate News of the Week.” Did you know the Chinese Communist Party is sending lots of money to “green energy” groups and  support energy groups and universities in the United States? The UK's obsession with reaching “Net Zero” is putting its military in danger on the battlefield. And you're not going to want to miss what is perhaps the dumbest question ever asked by an anchor on CNN.Join us LIVE at 1 p.m. ET so you can leave your questions and comments for the show in the chat.

While the political tide has shifted right in the United States – and away from the climate alarmist agenda – our neighbors to the north are still currently all-in for the economically ruinous and scientifically unnecessary Net Zero agenda. But climate realists in the Great White North are pushing back, and a new book released in conjunction with The Heartland Institute will serve as an important weapon in the scientific and public relations arsenal. We talk to guests Ron Davison of the Friends of Science Society and Tom Harris of the International Climate Science Coalition.On Episode #135 of The Climate Realism Show, we welcome the co-authors of Energy & Climate at a Glance: Canadian Edition, which outlines why the climate plans of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's climate plans will cause economic hardship in Canada and will do nothing measurable to improve the global climate.

Donald Trump's massive landslide victory in Tuesday's presidential election has climate activists around the world melting down. Trump called measures to control climate change “one of the great scams” of the world, and said at one of his final rallies “who the hell cares?” if the sea levels rise. Trump will immediately get America out of the Paris Climate Agreement, and promised in his acceptance speech this week to get as much “liquid gold” out of ground in the United States as possible. Climate Clown Michael Mann is apoplectic, of course. Climate activists in the UK vandalized the US embassy in London with orange paint. And X, formerly Twitter, was full of climate loonies losing their minds. We'll go over all of that, and have a little schadenfreudic fun at their expense.On Episode #134 of The Climate Realism Show, we welcome the Carbon King, Jason Isaac CEO of the American Energy Institute to discuss the future of climate and energy policy in the restoration of the Trump administration. Heartland's Anthony Watts, H. Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the week.

Climate change policy is often framed as a challenge to personal freedoms and choices, especially when policies seem to impose strict limits on individuals' lifestyles and economic options. For example, regulations that mandate renewable energy or limit fossil fuel use can feel like a direct restriction on the American dream—the idea that with hard work, anyone can achieve prosperity and a higher standard of living. These policies sometimes require sacrifices that may impact businesses and workers in traditional energy industries, as well as limit consumer choices in cars, appliances, home energy sources, and travel options. Additionally, many people worry that climate policies prioritize environmental goals over economic growth, which can restrict innovation, hinder job creation, and raise costs for families. Critics argue that climate policy, especially if it involves heavy-handed government intervention, reduces personal choices by dictating what types of products, energy, and resources individuals can access. For many, this perceived loss of choice challenges core values of independence, opportunity, and personal freedom, which are at the heart of the American dream.

The whole world seems to be nervously awaiting the outcome of the presidential election, which is just 10 days away — perhaps no group more than the global climate cabal. Climate and energy policy is a topic barely mentioned on the campaign trail, and in the debates. But voters are going to decide in November whether America keeps spending billions to be a “leader” in global climate action schemes or pull out of the scam altogether ... and maybe for good.On Episode #132 of The Climate Realism Show our guest is Steve Milloy, publisher of Junkscience.com, senior fellow at the Energy & Environment Legal Institute, and member of the EPA transition team for the first Trump presidency. The Biden-Harris administration has pledged billions of US tax dollars for “global climate action.” Would it be too late to get a refund on that if Trump is elected? Would a second Trump administration get even more aggressive with producing oil and gas? Could he end the taxpayer-subsidized and failing “green energy” industry with the stroke of a pen? And what will the next four years of climate policy look like if Kamala Harris wins?Heartland's Anthony Watts, H.

America's educational system used to cover the “three Rs” — reading, writing, and 'rithmetic – but that has long been abandoned from elementary school through college and even medical school and replaced with ideological indoctrination. Now the University of California, San Diego is requiring students to take a class in “climate change” to earn a degree. Classes such as “The Astronomy of Climate Change”, “Gender and Climate Justice”, “Indigenous Approaches to Climate Change,” and “Environmentalism in Arts and Media” are on offer. What is driving the push for shoving climate alarmism into every academic subject under the sun?On Episode #131 of The Climate Realism Show, we invite Steve Goreham on to discuss. Steve is the executive director of the Climate Science Coalition of America and author of four books, including “Green Breakdown: The Coming Renewable Energy Failure.”Heartland's Anthony Watts, H.

After a slow start to the 2024 Hurricane Season, it seems like Mother Nature wants to make up for lost time. First Helene hit the Florida Panhandle and caused a disaster in Appalachia. And this week, Hurricane Milton struck an area of the Florida Gulf Coast that hadn't be hit with a storm this strong in more than 100 years. On Episode #130 of The Climate Realism Show, The Heartland Institute's H. Sterling Burnett, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely welcome back Stan Goldenberg, one of the nation's top hurricane experts, to break down Hurricane Milton. Was this actually and officially a “major” hurricane by the time it made landfall?We will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including Bill Nye saying if you need to vote for Kamala Harris to stop hurricanes, Al Gore exploiting hurricanes for fun and profit, and the seemingly unsinkable and ridiculous notion that humans are able to seed and even steer hurricanes.

Shaun is staring down another hurricane! PLUS, Anthony Watts, Senior Fellow at The Heartland Institute, tells Shaun we are living in the golden age of weather and that storms like Milton are not unprecedented, just historic!   Gregory Stenstrom, author of Parallel Election: A Blueprint for Deception, tells Shaun about his recent courtroom victories from the 2020 election, and how he has found the root cause to stop election fraud from happening in 2024.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Heartland Institute Senior Fellow Anthony Watts was a guest on the Shaun Thompson Show on AM 560 the Answer in Chicago. He was asked on the program to talk about Hurricane Milton approaching the Florida Gulf Coast and what Shaun calls the "climate grift." Anthony debunks a lot of climate myths in just a few minutes -- including how even The Washington Post had to admit that despite global warming alarmism, the Earth is experiencing the lowest global temperature in the last 450 million years. In short, and as always, Anthony points out that the actual data itself debunks the climate alarmist narrative.For more information on Heartland's climate work, please visit:Heartland.orghttps://heartland.org/topics/environment-energy/Climate Realismhttps://climaterealism.com/Climate at a Glancehttps://climateataglance.com/Heartland's The Climate Realism Showhttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgnnPnL9OL7GMaxssP3-ScgN9PVOjl5sq

Hurricane Helene will go down as one of the most-significant natural disasters (so far) in US History, and certainly of the 21st century. While the Florida panhandle was walloped when it made landfall, the storm did most of its shocking damage far from shore in the Appalachian Mountains of eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina. Entire towns were wiped clean off the surface of the earth and close to 200 lost their lives. The storm was bad, but the media has been spreading myths about both the flooding's historic nature, and the causes of that flooding. Human-caused “climate change” had nothing to do with it, as The Climate Realism Show crew and special guest Joe Bastardi will explain. Bastardi, chief forecaster for WeatherBELL Analytics, is one of America's leading hurricane experts and historians, and we are thrilled to welcome him back to the show.The Heartland Institute's H. Sterling Burnett, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including how badly EVs and hurricanes mix, who is funding the pernicious climate alarm narrative globally, whether humans can “steer” hurricanes, and more.
