Gregory Wrightstone --Author of Inconvenient Facts — The science that Al Gore doesn’t want you to know

An article highly critical of my book Inconvenient Facts, a bestseller, has received wide distribution. 

It’s Easy to be Tricked by a Climate Denier purports to be a factual take-down of the book and, by extension, of me. 

However, it is really just one more example of how proponents of catastrophic man-made warming need to resort to lies and distortion in order to advance their agenda.
The author, Willard MacDonald, is not a scientist but the Vice President of Vivint Solar, a solar panel manufacturer and installer. 

No conflict of interest there! 

...In reference to my book’s 60 inconvenient facts, MacDonald states right up front that “most of them are true” and that they are also non-controversial statements. 

However, he disputes the conclusions drawn from them. 

He asserts that “every page of [the] book includes incorrect or misleading interpretations of data or science.”...

CORONAVIRUS UPDATE:
...Why Have So Few Americans Been Tested for Coronavirus?

After problems arose with the C.D.C.’s test, officials could have switched to using successful tests that other countries were already using. But the officials refused to do so, essentially because it would have required changing bureaucratic procedures.

The federal government could also have eased regulations on American hospitals and laboratories, to allow them to create and manufacture their own tests, as Melissa Miller of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine told The Washington Post. But federal officials did not do so for weeks.

On Facebook, Virginia Postrel observes, “The people who screwed this up weren’t Trumpites. They were the pros.”

Portland Has Come Up With Brilliant Idea to Stop Spread of Coronavirus in the 'Houseless' Community | Culture
"There's a meme going around about the current COVID-19 coronavirus and the homeless.

It's a bitter reminder of  how sympathy and feelings aren't the best approaches to public health.

Facebook

The meme reads, "Odd that the same leftists who let people poop on the streets, throw away used needles to step on and demand open borders are suddenly concerned about disease."

These are all unsafe things happening in homeless encampments in cities run by  West Coast liberals. 

From LA to San Francisco, to Portland and Seattle, it's a Petrie dish on the street. In San Francisco, people are hired at more than $100 thousand per year to clean up human waste on the street.

Enter the coronavirus, which is now a declared public health emergency in Oregon..."
