National Geographic say they have been monitoring ocean pH levels for the past 300 million years, and that the pH was a steady 8.2 for 299,999,800 years – until a little before you bought your SUV. Now they say the ocean is an “acid” 8.1 – and it is your fault. Corals are going to dissolve.

Atmospheric CO2 is close to the lowest level it has been in the last 300 million years. Corals evolved in the Cambrian Era – with CO2 levels fifteen times higher than now. Obviously they aren’t going to dissolve.

In the real world, seawater ranges from about an alkaline 7.7 to an alkaline 8.2.

National Geographic has no clue what they are talking about, and are simply making nonsensical gibberish up. But that is standard operating procedure for the left.

The fire season is over, and 2018 burn acreage in the US was down 84% since 1930.

Some people try to claim that data from the 1930s isn’t accurate. They have no clue what they are talking about.

In pre-industrial times (with CO2 below 300 PPM) there was more than ten times as much burn acreage per year as there is now.

The usual pack of propagandists in the press are of course claiming the exact opposite. Their job is not to report news.

Barack Obama, who wanted to make energy prices “skyrocket” and tried to shut down fracking after he found out about it, says he is responsible for the fracking boom on private land.

Climate change has nothing to do with science, and everything to do with scaring free people into accepting theft of their freedom and property.  And sadly, the Statue of Liberty has been underwater since 1995.

Propaganda campaigns like this don’t just happen.  They are funded by massive amounts of money.

In January, the New York Times said California was at risk from huge fires, because of forest mismanagement.

“California Today: 100 Million Dead Trees Prompt Fears of Giant Wildfires”

Mark A. Finney, an expert in fire behavior for the U.S. Forest Service and an author of the study, says California forests are much more vulnerable now because, paradoxically, they have been better protected. In their natural state, forests were regularly thinned by fire but the billions of dollars that the state spends aggressively fighting wildfires and restrictions on logging have allowed forests to accumulate an overload of vegetation.

How might the dead-tree forests affect California? One of the most striking concerns is the damage the fires might do to watersheds. Intense, hot-burning fires could disrupt forests’ ability to channel water into the Sierra reservoirs that provide cities like San Francisco with drinking water. That’s a scenario that could nudge the state into rethinking its forest management.

President Trump agreed with them.

The New York Times then fact checked the claim, and said that it isn’t true. Apparently facts change as needed to suit the latest fake news cycle.
