Here's the #FLOP26 roundup while the series has a hiatus, for your catch-up convenience...
The Guest on Episode 1 was Benny Peiser of @NetZeroWatch, who explained the UNFCCC process, and what @COP26 was all about.
In #FLOP26 episode 2, Austin Williams (@Future_Cities) discussed eco-colonialism, environmentalism's toxic obstruction of economic development where it is most needed.
In #FLOP26 episode 3, Richard North (@RichardAENorth) talked about scaremongering and technocracy, and one of green technocrats' biggest failures: flooding.
#FLOP26 episode 5 was a great chat with @Martin_Durkin about the fallout from his superb films, making truly independent films, and the new class reality exposed by the green agenda.
#FLOP26 episode 6's guest was @RupertDarwall, who gave us some insight into the history of the UNFCCC/COP process, and the strange phenomenon of ESG, epitomised by Mark Carney.
In #FLOP26 episode 7 @jameswoudhuysen joined the livestream for a wide-ranging chat about everything COP26-related between innovation, climate politics & geopolitics and animism!
#FLOP26 episode 8 was a discussion on the growing problem of climate lawfare, dismantled for us by @Chris_C_Horner. If you don't know what that is, you NEED to find out, because it's one of the ways democracy has been circumvented by the green blob.
In #FLOP26 episode 9, @AlexEpstein joined the Livestream to talk about the anti-human philosophy driving the green agenda, and the pro-human philosophical approach that we need to counter it.
#FLOP26 episode 10 was a panel discussion between three journalists, @Robspiked, @AndrewOrlowski, and @DavidRoseUK about the problems of writing any form of critical comment on the climate agenda, and the future for journalism and the news media.
#FLOP26 is in intermission, waiting until the end of @COP26. You're probably all sick of me anyway, and I want to line up some more top guests to take a look back, and to offer serious alternatives to the anti-democratic festival of doom and gloom currently concluding in Glasgow.
Many thanks to my guests over the episodes. They were chosen because I think they're among the most important perspectives, and have had the most influence on my perspective. Many thanks too to the supporters who made it possible.
Please share these conversations wherever possible and appropriate, so that people can discover that there is an alternative to the bleak monopolitics of the green agenda, and that there needs to be debate and democracy.
Oh, and don't forget to sign the petition for a referendum on #NetZero.
And that's what the climate thing is about. Its players live entirely virtual existences, remote and disconnected from the lives lived by billions of ordinary people.
Why does Ed want to be the climate champion so badly? Why does he think he has a handle on what the world needs?
Because he's a complete stranger to democracy. He's from a class of people who believe society is theirs to manage and engineer, no matter what people think.
He grew up in wealth, but with the belief that he was good for the world and could make it a better place without requiring the consent of those whose lives his ideas would affect. It's a left-wing version of Divine Right.
Imagine thinking that @ISDglobal is not a sinister organisation, doing the work of governments, billionaires and corporations, wrapped in (easy) virtues.
It was cited approvingly in a Graun article. But it does the work of these offices of the government.
Because they can't do it themselves.
The ISD's tools were apparently shared with a group that was founded by a PR man and a convicted money-launderer, who had run illegal online gambling rackets.
"Civil society" is out of control. It is actively anti-democratic, and has displaced the public from politics.
George Monbiot weeps into his longstanding conspiracy theory, which he has been unable to furnish with any testable claims in the 30 years he has been weeping over it.
His form of environmentalism is 90% emotion and 10% evasion of fact and debate.
The fossil fuel companies didn't hoodwink you into heating your home, having warm showers or baths and cooking. The fossil fuel companies didn't force you to drive to see Grandma on Saturday, or to fly to Spain for a lovely holiday in August.
The fossil fuel companies didn't persuade us, against our will to have affordable, reliable energy, to power industries that created an economy, in which poorer people rose out of poverty and had decent, longer, healthier, wealthier lives almost *everywhere* on the planet.
A new scare story. Watch them try to roll this into legislation in short order, despite the total dearth of evidence in support of it, and the total abundance of evidence against it.
A model will suggest that it reduces life span by a week.
