A widely-reprinted AFP story about releasing octopodes to fight blue crabs in the Adriatic says "blue crabs arrived in the Mediterranean decades ago... But their numbers have ballooned in recent years..." and of course they blame "climate change." Not adaptability. Heck no.

Hydro-Québec, amid various difficulties connected to the alleged green energy transition, is subsidizing the purchase and installation of “onduleurs solaires” from Communist China that are banned even in Europe, never mind the US due to security risks. Allons-y!

Canadian PM Mark Carney, who resists unwelcome information, recently intoned that the absurd hated ALTO high-speed Laurentian rail project to blast through farmland and cottages so people can get from Toronto to Montreal slightly faster is popular. What else doesn't he know?

In our Canary in a Climate World Vol. 3 series, Australian meteorologist William Kininmonth deals with some climate basics, like that the Earth has never been in radiative equilibrium and oceans warm the atmosphere not the other way around.

Just because a paper is published in Nature doesn’t automatically mean it’s wrong. But if it’s a climate paper in that journal it’s a pretty safe bet that it is. The most recent example is a 2025 item that claimed that drought is accelerating globally. The data says otherwise.

Juncus Kraussi or Salt Marsh Rush is a rush plant that grows well in salt water, one of three around the world with this feature. In 2020, two experiments showed that an additional 300 ppm CO2 made it expand in a rush, boosting its growth by an astounding 720%.

Climate alarmists put high hopes on the 2026 El Niño to deliver catastrophes. But when the Palm Beach Post claims “A key culprit in this year’s hurricane drought is the deepening El Niño climate pattern” we find the word “culprit” odd with respect to a lack of terrible storms.

When the Liberal administration of Mark Carney suspended the federal excise tax on gasoline until next year, Canada’s socialist NDP was outraged. See apparently not taxing something is a handout to the seller. That’s socialist economics in a nutshell.

This week we discuss the remote possibility of "hidden ice" in the Utah mountains, stale claims that half-measures or quarter measures against climate change are "not enough", Roger Pielke Jr.'s wonky assessment of the new CMIP7 scenarios, and more.

A Canadian socialist MP just expressed bewilderment that the Competition Bureau refused to say the government couldn’t fib about the environment. How can people spend a lifetime in politics and retain faith that the state is pure, wise and kind?

In yet another ataxic effort to back off a policy that you see does not work while still convinced it does, the Canadian province of New Brunswick, under a Liberal premier, suddenly flops its flip on fracking, announcing a review of its sanctimonious ban.

Journalist Andrew Moseman writes in Heatmap “Maybe Don’t Rent an EV in Europe”. Which if we said it would be ho hum. But here it’s hey what? Isn’t Europe on the cutting edge of the green energy transition, including on EVs? Seems yet again reality is tricky.

Few things could be uglier than alarmists backing and not filling on the Nepal-Tibet flood disaster after leaping to blame climate change. It's always the same dance; conclusion first, evidence second, and we’ll ignore it if it contradicts our conclusion. Disgraceful.

Our next entry from Canary in a Climate World Vol. 3 is the chapter by Dr. John Christy, who, along with Dr. Roy Spencer, published the first atmospheric temperature series based on satellite monitoring tech. And they found that the satellites say the models run much too hot.

Mark Carney's regime decided to continue the federal gasoline excise tax suspension through January, then impose it at half price through March then put it back up. They haven't abandoned climate fanaticism, they're just baffled that the green transition isn't lowering costs.

This week we discuss the "Great (or arguably "Lousy") Matheson Fire of 1916, US state attorneys-general calling out the "Big 4" accounting firms' for their climate-obsessions, Nat Geo ignoring the history on "ultra-hot" days in US cities, July 2026 temperatures, and more.

We often wonder how researchers think they know it's the “hottest” year ever including what they think “ever” even means. But we know why we think 2025 was the greenest year “ever” meaning “in the satellite record since the 1980s”. So why did the media fail to mention it?

The mysteriously-named Joshua Tree is native to the US Southwest and doesn’t do well elsewhere. So while in 1998 one experiment showed an additional 300 ppm CO2 boosted its growth by 65%, it still hasn’t found what it’s looking for, namely a land flowing with CO2.

Climate science is all about tipping points. Dozens lurking out there waiting to plunge us inexorably into one inescapable doom after another. So an alert viewer asked us to respond to a video about such tipping points that belongs in the rubbish tip.

There’s a lot you can say about Artificial Intelligence, much of it involving justified horror. But the massive public backlash in the US against building AI data centres may actually have an impact shows that US democracy is easier to sneer at than to replicate.
