Sometimes people think that a summer power outage is easier to deal with than a winter one. After all, in the summer, you don’t have to worry about freezing to death, which is a very real threat during a long-lasting winter outage.
However, a summer power outage carries its own set of problems. Foremost are heat-related illnesses and the higher potential of spoilage for your food. Even if you aren’t convinced that hardcore preparedness is for you, it would still be difficult to argue against the possibility of a disaster that takes out the power for a couple of weeks. Basic emergency preparedness is important for everyone, not just us “crazy preppers.”

The Clean School Bus Program has been funded with a $5 billion grant from the Inflation Reduction Act that should be appropriately named the Climate Change Act. Around $1 billion of this will be spent on electric school buses. As with all spending plans, the budget quickly jumped from $500 million to $1 billion after the EPA said there was a strong demand. The buses will first be tested in low-income districts, and the people are not happy.

At the 2016 World Science Festival, a panellist openly discussed using genetic engineering of humans to “address climate change.” He went on to give two examples of how editing the human genome could mitigate “climate change.”
“Climate change is a real big problem – we don’t really know how to solve it. But it turns out that we can use human engineering to help us address climate change,” Dr. Matthew Liao said.
Dr. Liao, a philosopher and bioethicist, made the remarks during the 2016 World Science Festival discussion titled ‘Life in Our Image – The Ethics of Altering the Human Genome’ which was described as:

It is playing out like a 4th of July fireworks display with the finale being a ratcheted torrent of bombs bursting in air! Ordinary people are on edge, their tongues quick to lash out with anger and even rage.
Are we in the midst of a geoengineered tit-for-tat war?
The media overwhelmingly claim the Maui fire was caused by climate change. Why? Because the topsy-turvydom world claims everything nefarious is now caused by climate change. Vax deaths are because of – climate change. Plane crashes are – climate change. Citywide chaos is caused by – climate change. All because The Media says so.

Peter Arkell, chairman of the Global Mining Association of China who has been running a consulting business in the PRC for almost 20 years, said that Beijing’s restrictions on the export of rare earth metals were a predictable response to Washington’s trade war.
China’s curbs on rare earth metals to Western microchip makers comes as no surprise after a year of US-led sanctions, says a mining expert.
Beijing’s new restrictions on the export of eight gallium and six germanium products, on the basis that they have dual civilian and military uses, came into force on Tuesday.

Biden’s Department of Energy plans to mete out “the maximum civil penalty” against manufacturers that “knowingly distribute” illicit light bulbs which violate their new efficiency standards.
From Politico, “While everyone was yelling about gas stoves, the incandescent light bulb went away”:
It’s lights out for the incandescent bulbs that people have known, changed and singed their hands on for 140 years.
by David Blackmon, The Daily Caller:
The Los Angeles Times published an op/ed Friday in which it perhaps unintentionally poses the central proposition of the mythical energy transition: “whether our expectations should evolve in the name of preventing climate catastrophe.”
The op/ed is appropriately titled, “Would an Occasional Blackout Help Solve Climate Change?” It is a headline that tacitly admits a truth about the transition that boosters of renewable energy have been careful not to publicize: That the notion that generation sources with extremely low energy density like wind and solar cannot hope to be viable alternatives to generation with extremely high energy density like natural gas, nuclear and coal. It is a notion that defies the laws of thermodynamics and physics, and those are laws, not suggestions that can be discarded as a matter of convenience or, as in this case, in pursuit of a hyper-political agenda.
from The Epoch Times:
After seeking to reduce the use of gas stoves, the Biden administration is pushing a proposal to ban the sale of almost all portable gas generators—which some experts have said would be disastrous for the millions of Americans who rely on such generators during power outages.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has proposed a policy (pdf) that would remove nearly all existing portable gas generators from the market. The new rule restricts the amount of carbon monoxide that generators can emit by forcing these generators to switch off when they reach a certain level of emissions.

Summer comes every year, and every year it gets hot, so nothing about what is written below is meant to imply that “man-made” global warming, which they now call climate change, has anything to do with the fact that throughout the history of the world temperatures have fluctuated, and will continue to do so long after we are gone.
Now, with that out of the way, despite the fact that it is not man-made” global warming, or climate change in the manner that the hysterical climate change shills claim, it is still freaking hot out there!
