Don't Buy the Panic Over Microplastics in Bottled Water
A Big Panic Over Tiny Plastics - MIKE PESCA
The number of pieces of plastic, as opposed to the amount of plastic, is irrelevant to the danger (if there even is a danger), but the aim was to communicate dread at all of the tiny shards of toxicity loosed upon our water-gulping bodies...
- Science can detect increasingly small particles of plastic in our air and water. That doesn't mean it's bad for you.
- The smallest-sized particles the researchers picked up measured 100 nanometers. This means we can now detect bits of plastic so small that 10 million of them would amount to a piece of microplastic a fraction of the width of a hair...

UCLA School of Medicine's radical DEI czar clumsily plagiarized vast portions of her dissertation on DEI: Report | Blaze Media
UCLA School of Medicine's radical DEI czar clumsily plagiarized vast portions of her dissertation on DEI: Report | Blaze Media:
According to Rosiak, Perry's wealth of published knowledge, reducible to a single paper, "stole thousands of words from 10 other papers." In one instance, the DEI czar ostensibly directly copied five continuous pages of material from someone else's work.
Perry apparently wasn't even stealthy when stealing other people's ideas, having lifted the first pages of her dissertation from the first page of other published works, including more than 100 words from the first page of a paper by Angela Locks, Sylvia Hurtado, Nicholas Bowman, and Leticia Oseguera.
Climate Lawfare: A Well-Funded Trojan Horse For Upending Democracies - Climate Change Dispatch
In an astonishing verdict, Europe’s highest human rights court ruled on April 9 that countries must better protect their citizens from “the consequences of climate change.” - Tilak Doshi"In the landmark ruling, setting a legal precedent across 46 member states of the Council of Europe, the court sided with a group of women called KlimaSeniorinnen or “Senior Women for Climate Protection.”
- The elderly Swiss ladies claimed that their lives were endangered by heat waves caused by “climate change.”
- In the court’s judgment, there is no uncertainty that heat waves are induced — as “scientific knowledge” supposedly makes clear — by fossil fuel use in modern industrial civilization.
- This is the first time an international court ruled on a climate-related human rights issue, in the first decision confirming governments have a legal obligation to “protect” people from the alleged effects of “climate change.”...

Wow!-----JFK ATC Error: Four Planes Cross Runway As Another Takes Off - One Mile at a Time
We’ve seen a concerning number of close calls at airports lately. In some cases they’re due to mistakes by pilots, while in other cases they’re due to mistakes by air traffic controllers. Here’s an especially bad incident involving the latter…

'Australian censorship commissar' orders X to globally remove video of Islamic terror attack on Christian bishop | Blaze Media
'Australian censorship commissar' orders X to globally remove video of Islamic terror attack on Christian bishop | Blaze Media:
While apparently willing to admit the attack was what it appeared to be on video, the Australian government has attempted to erase the video evidence from social media.
X, formerly known as Twitter, indicated Friday that the Australian government has ordered it to remove the video evidence of the anti-Christian attack. While the platform appeared willing to accommodate the Australian eSafety Commissioner regionally, that apparently was not enough for the Australian state, which has since demanded global censorship of the video.
South African billionaire Elon Musk and his company have effectively told the government to pound sand.
AEROSPACE ENGINEER REVEALS TRUTH ABOUT SOLAR PANELS.
This absorbed HEAT is RADIATED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE. - Jan Niedojadlo
G. Franklin says...I should start by telling you what bonafides...
G. Franklin says...I should start by telling you what bonafides...
- SOLAR PANELS are at best about 20% EFFICIENT...
- At the same time as they are absorbing light they are absorbing heat from the sun.
- This absorbed HEAT is RADIATED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE.
It should be obvious what happens next.
When air is warmed it rises.
Even small differences in ordinary land surfaces are capable of creating powerful forces of weather like thunderstorms and tornadoes...

'Something Will Have to Give': IMF Issues Dire Warning to Biden Administration
'Something Will Have to Give': IMF Issues Dire Warning to Biden Administration:
What the Biden administration needs to do is decrease its spending and pull money out the economy, so that inflation can be curtailed.
But instead of decreasing government spending, Biden is hell-bent on making American taxpayers bear the burden of his progressive policies.
Inevitably, raising wealth and corporate taxes will be detrimental to growth. Increasing tax rates will cause corporations to invest elsewhere and strike a blow to the American economy.
In this instance, the government needs to do less, not more. We need to decrease government spending, not increase it.
The Daily Chart: Stagnating Regulation | Power Line
As you may know, the supposed slow-growth of wages since the early 1970s has long been a cause-celebre among the left’s equity crowd. - STEVEN HAYWARD IN THE DAILY CHART
"It is usually attributed to lower income tax rates, or the demonic powers of “neoliberalism.”
One factor that is seldom considered, at least by the mainstream media and the celebrated egalitarian academics like Thomas Piketty, is the role the sharp rise of economy-wide government regulation that began at precisely the moment that wage growth flat-lined.
- Environmental regulations in particular have been highly effective at saying No to new projects of all kinds.
