The press says Greenland is melting at the fastest rate in 12,000 years

Agriculture uses 87% of Colorado water.

A large percentage of that water is used to grow corn for biofuels.

“Water used in energy extraction, processing and conversion is a significant share of overall demand for water demand in the United States. It is likely to rise as we increase reliance on water-intensive fuels. Some of the fuels that have been promoted by government policies have larger-than-average water consumption, especially biofuels for transportation fuels. Corn ethanol has by far the highest water consumption of any fuel analyzed, largely due to irrigation during the corn-growing stage.”

They are sucking water out of the Colorado River to create biofuels, and then blame it on fossil fuels.

Six months ago, the Shetland Islands were the poster child for green energy – now almost everyone living there is facing fuel poverty.

In 1999, the US Government attempted to frame Wen Ho Lee as being a Chinese spy. There was no evidence to support this, and what he did was no worse than what Hillary Clinton did with her email server.

On March 21, 2022 the Shetland Islands were leaders in the race to net zero. By April 2023, ninety-six percent of the population will be in fuel poverty.

Paul Joseph Watson from Prison Planet tweeted this earlier today.

“Greenland ice sheet gained 7 Gigatons of mass in just one day yesterday — the largest daily gain ever recorded during the summer.”

Shortly thereafter the site went offline.

http://polarportal.dk is unfortunately not available at the moment.

I visit that site every day and have many copies of the graph from different dates.  It will be interesting to see if the data is the same when the site comes back online.

As humidity and dew points have increased in the corn belt due to increased yields, the likelihood of both very hot nights and cool nights has decreased.

On July 25, 1936 temperatures at Lincoln, Nebraska never dropped below 91F. University of Nebraska students slept on the lawn because the dormitories were unbearably hot.
