Climate Change: Is It Too Late?
Well, no. It will never be too late. That is the part the ecofascists are depending on. The physics limits warming to roughly +9°C. At that level, much of the planet would be uninhabitable — oceans would rise dramatically, heat extremes would make large regions lethal to humans, freshwater scarcity would be widespread, and agricultural […]

David vs. Goliath: The Strategic and Economic Risks of a U.S.–Iran War

The Accidental Fascist Hunter
How a Climate Investigation Uncovered Ecofascist Networks Introduction This paper documents how an investigation into climate science denial led to the identification of ecofascist ideology embedded within elite networks. I did not set out to become what some now call a “fascist hunter.” The investigation began narrowly, focused on institutional influence and regulatory manipulation. It […]

That inquiry led me to examine its connections to the Department […]
