Jason responded by recommending Michael Crichton’s novel State of Fear, about how terrorizing a population in the name of environmentalism can harm a society just as we’re seeing now. He then cited Steven Koonin’s Unsettled: What Climate Science Tells Us, What It Doesn’t, and Why It Matters. Koonin (who’s no conservative) blows global warming alarmists out of the water. Heat waves and hurricanes are not more common than they were in 1900, and temperatures have remained stable for the past half century.

Retired three-star general Keith Kellogg appeared on Martha MacCallum’s show on Fox to respond to Biden’s claim that the weather is the greatest threat we face. “I respectfully disagree with anybody who says that. It is not global warming! I mean, when you look at countries with nuclear weapons and have a capacity to strike at us in a terrorist capability, to me, is not global warming.”
