Al Gore just said “none of the predictions from the past 20 years have been wrong from climate scientists.” This inspired me to go back and watch the classic An Inconvenient Truth. Upon rewatch it was worse than I remember!

I spent half of my 20s as a brainwashed climate activist. This is the story of how I changed my mind and became a climate realist.

Just over three years ago, we were fewer than 20 people, fully remote, and publishing just one article a day. Today, we reach millions of readers every week. This billboard is a symbol of that growth. It's a great day to be part of The Free Press!

The climate obsession makes people believe extreme heat is new. But the weather has always been extreme! Thanks Chris Martz for putting together this map!

This clip gave me chills. Former Obama DOE Under Secretary Steve Koonin explains that many climate models ran 2–4x too hot. The scientific community knew it. The public was never told. Those exaggerated models fueled a “climate crisis” narrative that rushed decarbonization, drove up energy prices, weakened the grid, hollowed out manufacturing, scared a generation of kids, and shipped jobs to China.

So many people—myself included—are drawn to the climate movement because they want to help people. They care, want to help the poor, and save the planet. But what they don't understand is that the climate movement is doing the exact opposite of what these well-meaning activists want to accomplish. The movement vilifies reliable energy—the single biggest driver of getting people out of poverty. Over the past several decades, we’ve spent trillions on an energy transition away from fossil fuels. The result? We’ve made our energy system less reliable and more expensive. Western countries have also practiced climate colonialism by preventing Africa from developing with natural gas, coal, and oil. (This goes against everything climate activists claim to stand for!) This is the most morally inverted movement ever. Right now, a billion people don't have access to reliable energy. That means women are spending their entire day figuring out how to get fuel to cook their food. Children in these settings are not going to school, they’re spending hours collecting wood or walking to get water. All of that is a symptom of energy poverty. This is when climate activists will say “but the planet is burning!” Just no. The planet is not burning. Yes, we've added CO2 to the atmosphere and seen about ~1°C of warming over 150 years. But 95% of CO2 is naturally occurring and historically, warming periods are when humans flourish. The Medieval Warm Period (900–1300 AD) is a great example. It was 0.7-1°C warmer and populations boomed. They then collapsed during the Little Ice Age. Takeaway the climate hysteria and objectively you would choose to live during a warming period over a cooling period. The rest of the data is reassuring: ✅Globally hurricanes rates are slightly declining ✅Tornadoes are down ✅Sea level rise is a manageable ~3mm/year ✅Global greening is up 15–40% since the 1980s ✅10x people still die from cold than from heat In the West the first time students hear about our energy system is within the context of “fossil fuels are burning the planet.” They’re never taught that it’s an amazing technology that has lifted billions out of poverty. I considered this a huge injustice. We need to pivot away from climate hysteria toward one goal: ending energy poverty and expanding access to energy. If you’re still gripped by climate fear and anxiety, I’m sorry you are a victim of this fear narrative. But it's time to get out.

I will die on this hill. I would rather live in a world with mild climate change and reliable energy from fossil fuels than in a world where climate activists win, our energy system is unreliable and expensive, and we have less choice and opportunity as humans. Weigh these tradeoffs honestly, and I think you will come out on the same side I have.

Billie Eilish says after doing a little bit of research she was really scared of climate change. Well I’ve done a little bit of research and what I found was quite the opposite!

Is 34°C (93.2°F) in the UK really not normal? I was able to find days in the 1970s, 1950s, and 1800s where the UK broke 34°C.

Bernie’s AI moratorium makes no sense. It would hurt American industry while handing a win to our adversaries like China. I used to be a Bernie supporter but now I think most of his policies are dumb and frankly dangerous.

The facts I learned that made me stop fearing climate change. 1. Deaths from natural disasters are down 95%. 2. 10x more people die from cold than from heat. 3. Global greening has increased. 4. Growers add up to 1,500 ppm of CO2 to their greenhouses. 5. Extreme weather has not gotten worse.

Polar bears aren’t dying off. Coral reefs aren’t collapsing. Extreme weather isn’t getting worse. More people die from cold than heat. Warming has coincided with unprecedented human prosperity. Meanwhile, we’ve spent trillions of taxpayer dollars on solar and wind, driving up energy costs, pushing jobs out of Europe, and making power less reliable. At the same time, we scold developing countries and tell them they can’t use oil and gas, the same fuels the West used to get rich. Climate alarmism and the policies that followed have, without a doubt, done more harm than good.

Jane Goodall says there is a climate crisis because “we have the hurricanes, we have the floods, we have the fires, we have melting ice, we have sea level rise. Islands are disappearing.” But does the evidence actually back that up?

When I was a climate activist I used to think we needed to “keep fossil fuels in the ground to save humanity.” Now I understand that keeping fossil fuels in the ground would kill billions of people.

This heat wave discourse is very emotional and fearful, which prevents people from implementing solutions.
