From NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT
By Paul Homewood
Michael Shellenberger is one of the best communicators I have come across.
Here he unpicks a lot of the myths around climate change.
It is a long video – what I often do is watch 10 or 15 minute chunks
Alternatively, watch the first couple of minutes and then fast forward to the 15 minute mark, where he gets into the nitty gritty.
I followed Michael Shellenberger in 2019…when Covid kicked off…then he became addicted, like Matt Taibbi, to paywalls…

Can you send me the certificate?
Stop with the f—— bold.
Yes
Seven lies? View on You Tube, down load the transcript and do a [Ctrl F] search on “methane” and it comes up zero.
It would be much more convenient to find a transcript attached to this article.
I know all the lies told by Climate Alarmists so I won’t need to watch this video.
I think Schellenberger thinks CO2 is a problem that needs to be addressed.
There is NO evidence showing that CO2 is anything other than a benign gas, essential for life on Earth. Thinking there is, borders on delusional, since there is literally no evidence to support this belief.

Yes, WUWT could paste in the transcript but that’s quite a bit of space.
Well anyway, that’s what I did and then did my search for methane which came up zero. It should be lie #8 as the crazies want to feed Bovaer to cows so they don’t burp so much methane. But the same crazies are up in arms about feeding growth hormones to cows so they give more milk. Cartoon Oh yeah the #8 methane lie. “Climate Science” says methane is as much as 82.5 times more powerful as a greenhouse gas than CO2. which is Obviously not true.
Ill go along with that assumption because :
If methane is 82.5 more powerful (the unmeasurable 0.5 was added to pretend competence),
than co2 is so weak that we don’t even need to talk about it.
Now the technical reason why methane has to be this powerful is : propaganda.
Something at 0.0002% levels is so inexistent that it has to be inflated to get somehow close to co2’s 0.04% to fit at least somehow into the picture of fear.
My problem with such a powerful methane is only,
why we don’t use such a superpotent gas to store energy and why it hasn’t be a problem during the ice age scare.
Harold The Organic Chemist Says:
At the MLO in Hawaii, the concentration of CH4 in air is 1.9 ppmv, which is 1.4 mg per cubic meter of air at STP.
Some natural sources of CH4 are swamps, bogs and fens, wild ruminate animals, decaying vegetation, wetlands, seeps from the ocean floor and termites, especially African termites.
One main reason for the low concentration of CH4 in air is that the discharges of lightning cause combustion of CH4 by the generated oxygen atoms and ozone.
CH4 is slightly soluble in cold water. In cold polar waters CH4 diffuse to the ocean floor where under high pressure it forms a solid clathrate known as methane ice.
All processes of combustion such as wildfires burn up the CH4 in the air. Jet planes with their huge engines are flying incinerators of CH4 as well gasoline and diesel fumes, green leaf volatiles from plants, terpenes from pine trees.
We really do not have to worry about this minor trace greenhouse gas.
Methane clathrates have been found in warmer waters too. There’s speculation that some of the airplane and boat disappearances in the “Bermuda Triangle” may be caused by large methane eruptions. It doesn’t take much methane sucked into a piston engine air intake to make the air/fuel mixture too rich to burn. Fly through a large bubble of methane floating up and it could shut engines down. IIRC some old reports involving boats mentioned bubbling or frothing water along with engines shutting down and unable to be re-started for a while. The level of methane required to do that is well below the level that affects human breathing. A sufficiently large methane eruption could reduce the buoyancy of water enough to sink a boat.
Maybe a methane eruption was the cause of the lost of the Navy’s Flight 19, the first major loss of air craft in the Bermuda Triangle.
Methane is a very dangerous gas. I often see videos on the TV of houses being blown up do to a methane leak.
Thanks for the tutorial, Steve.
molecule for molecule, methane has more bonds that can vibrate. But since Methane is such a minor gas it probably has less potential warming effect. And it id far more likely to breakdown in reactions. This website explains the process. https://climate.mit.edu/ask-mit/what-makes-methane-more-potent-greenhouse-gas-carbon-dioxide
However, since increasing CO2 is probably a result of warming, and because of the small amount of methane in the atmosphere, neither are actually worth worrying about. More concerned about cooling due to solar variations and sunspot activity.
Of course, addressing the “problem” could be to just ignore it altogether.
OPTION #1 to consider in classic problem solving choices & consequences should always be –
“Do Nothing”
Here, the lies continue to be bandied about with no abatement. And so do the old tried and trusted tactics. Big oil, cheap renewables, yada, yada.
Reform mayor courted US oil and gas executive about fracking in UK Exclusive: Documents show Andrea Jenkyns asked how she could help firm after major gas find in Lincolnshire
A spokesperson for the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero said: “We intend to ban fracking for good and make Britain a clean energy superpower to protect current and future generations.”
…
Jenkyns and other Reform officials have also opposed local renewable energy schemes, including efforts to scale back a community solar scheme providing energy to a fire station and leisure centre.
and true to form…
This article was amended on 24 February 2026. An earlier version said “Reform-led North Yorkshire council” had opposed gas extraction projects in its council area. It was Reform-led Scarborough town council that had opposed such projects; North Yorkshire council is under a Conservative minority administration. – 6th Form Common Room
They had the crimes already laid out, but couldn’t quite figure out who to pin them on.
It is winter in the UK and nat. gas keeps many people from freezing to death. Natural gas is a source of hydrogen for the manufacture of ammonia for fertilizer production and is used for the manufacture of methanol. Natural gas is the fuel for CCGT in power plants for generation of electricity.
These people should go to Wikipedia and learn about the chemistry of nat. gas.
“…the size of that influence…” (of humans on the climate – beginning at about 3:00 in the video)
Through emissions of CO2 from using natural deposits of hydrocarbons as fuel, that influence is vanishingly weak. Negligible. The modelers know this from the fundamentals of compressible flow, as dynamic energy conversion within the general circulation massively overwhelms the incremental IR absorbing power of even 2XCO2.

I appreciate Michael Shellenberger, as he seems open to the implications of the evidence.

World Economic Forum CEO Steps Down Over Epstein Ties
Borge Brende is stepping down as CEO of the World Economic Forum…
https://order-order.com/2026/02/26/world-economic-forum-ceo-steps-down-over-epstein-ties/
Wow, welcome to dystopia. How did humans become this? Because we have collections of sh!t genes I guess.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Gorton_and_Denton_by-election
Is there a single one at the top of the powerstructure that is not connected to Epstein?
TPTB obviously means: The Pedos that Be.
Epstein was involved with a lot of “movers and shakers” in the world financially, and otherwise.
It looks like we are going to get more names in the future.
Whoopi Goldberg says don’t go jumping to conclusions just because her name was found in the Epstein Files.
Talking about names:
The former Norwegian Prime Minister Jagland tried? to get suicided after appearing on Epsteins list.
Now the interesting thing is: He was also chair of the Nobel Prize committee.
And just about the time a totally unknown guy who suddenly became famous(after getting his career sponsored by Chicago Mafia Clans Pritzker and Crown) got the Nobel Prize for being Black (the real reason was, it was a strategic preemptive honor so he can bomb all around the world protected by the peace prize and the color of his skin).
I just need to verify the exact dates.
Also interesting that these globalist mules and kid island hoppers like him always remain in relevant positions:
So did Clinton Katamite Lagarde,
and ,against all odds, it stays in the family,
as the Bush- Bush presidecy,
the almost Bill snd Hilary presidency,
And the rest of the top female: Leyen(daughter of criminal Minister Albrecht ),
Kallas(daughter of Estonian Prime Minister)
Justine Turd’Eau(Prime Minister daddy)
And Boris Johnson and Richy Sunak had the same Goldman Sachs Mentor who runs BBC.
And I’m pretty that all major owners international owners of Vanguard(the internationalised face of Blackrock) are
are comprised too.
Was it too hard to just list the seven?
Very nice.
so the bottom line is….. its all activism based on a belief system
The first big lie about climate change is that there is no climate change because most of the earth’s surfaces are water, rocks, sand and soil. Activates of humans can have no effect on the vast Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans, the Andes, Alps, Himalaya and Rocky mountains or the Sahara, Mojave, Atacama, Kalahari and Gobi deserts.
Activities of humans can effect local climates of cities due the Urban Heat Island Effect. In some countries the over use of plants for food and for feed for animals has caused local desertification.
“Activates of humans can have no effect on the vast Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans, the Andes, Alps, Himalaya and Rocky mountains or the Sahara, Mojave, Atacama, Kalahari and Gobi deserts.”
That doesn’t mean there’s no climate change. If you mean only anthropogenic cc, you should specify that, because there is most certainly natural climate change.
Since the vast majority of people live in poverty, they consume little and have little effect on climate. I live in Canada which is mostly unpopulated by humans. Check an atlas for Siberia. nobody lives there.
