President Trump recently claimed that his administration is working to reduce record-high beef prices — a crisis he attributed to drought impacting U.S. cattle ranchers. Yet what he failed to acknowledge is that the drought itself is a direct consequence of the very climate crisis his administration continues to deny. The irony is stark: the […]

Climate Denial, Drought, and the Death of Capitalism: How Trump’s Anti-Science Policies Are Driving Economic Collapse
2024: The Year Earth Crossed a Critical Climate Threshold
by Daniel BrouseOctober 15, 2025 Research released in 2025 confirmed that 2024 was the year the planet broke multiple climate records — none of them good. Atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) concentrations, fossil fuel emissions, and global average temperatures all soared to unprecedented highs, marking the moment humanity officially breached the 1.5°C warming threshold established by […]
Global Energy Shift and the Climate Crisis: The U.S. Falling Behind
by Daniel Brouse October 7, 2025 Over the past year, solar and wind energy worldwide generated more electricity than coal, marking a historic milestone in global renewable energy deployment. China alone added more solar and wind capacity than the rest of the world combined, highlighting how rapidly the United States is losing both economic and […]
The Science They Refuse to See: Debunking Climate Denial and the Accelerating Crisis
by Daniel Brouse September 23, 2025 Debunking Common Climate Science Denial Claims: A Scientist’s Rebuttal Climate science denial often takes the form of oversimplified analogies or misrepresentations of complex physical processes. One common line of attack is the claim that greenhouse gases and potent molecules like methane cannot significantly affect global temperatures. Here, I provide […]
Energy Secretary Disbands Controversial Climate Working Group After Scientific Rebuke
by Daniel Brouse September 16, 2025 Energy Secretary Chris Wright has officially disbanded the Department of Energy’s controversial Climate Working Group (CWG), a body that came under fire for producing a climate report riddled with inaccuracies and scientific distortions. The move, first reported by CNN and later confirmed by NPR, follows months of scrutiny over […]
Texas-Sized Climate Change
by Daniel Brouse September 3, 2025 The CO₂ Coalition released a report titled “Texas and Climate Change: No Climate Crisis in the Lone Star State,” making a series of sweeping claims: that Texas has experienced no “unprecedented or unusual” warming despite rising atmospheric CO₂, and that current temperatures are comparable to those over a century […]
Health and Quality of Life in Florida
by Daniel Brouse September 3, 2025 Florida faces mounting challenges in health, education, and climate resilience—each reinforcing the state’s declining quality of life. Life ExpectancyFlorida’s life expectancy has fallen sharply. Recent estimates put it at ~77.5 years, down from 79 in 2019, with COVID-19 and drug overdoses driving much of the decline. The state now […]
Runaway Climate Feedbacks and Systemic Collapse
Daniel Brouse and Sidd MukherjeeSeptember 3, 2025 Our probabilistic, ensemble-based climate model — incorporating complex socio-economic and ecological feedback loops within a dynamic, nonlinear system — projects that global temperatures could rise by as much as 9°C (16.2°F) within this century. This far exceeds earlier estimates, which predicted a 4°C rise over the next thousand […]
Runaway Feedbacks: Can Earth Warm 9°C This Century?

Sea Level Denial vs. Climate Reality: The Accelerating Collapse of Ice Sheets and Ocean Circulation
by Daniel BrouseAugust 29, 2025 Here’s an example response you can use when confronting a climate denier—this one addresses the accelerating rise in sea levels and the collapse of the AMOC. The climate denier said to me: “What an absolute load of BS. Sea level hasn’t changed to ANY verifiable degree in 2,000 years. Sit […]
