It should not come as a surprise that population growth is correlated with increasing resource abundance. Human beings are producers by nature. We will continue to use technology to improve our environment so long as we are left free to do so.

A rare piece of good news from the international climate bureaucracy: The committee that developed the GHG emissions scenarios used in the IPCC's climate models has removed the three most unrealistic and alarmist scenarios: RCP8.5, SSP5-8.5, and SSP3-7.0. These scenarios, especially RCP8.5, have been widely used to generate catastrophist climate predictions and justify anti-fossil-fuel policies.

Congratulations, Japan! More countries need to do this! Decouple from Communist #China now!

Watch how a $5K investment in US and China equity markets in 2011 grew by 2025.

How do I know that the climate *crisis* is a scam? Here are five reasons: 1️⃣ None of the politicians, celebrities, or “scientists” yammering about it have altered their lifestyles an inch. If they opted to forgo using O&G products, then I’d take them seriously. Actions speak louder than words. 2️⃣ Climate conferences aren’t being held virtually on Zoom using their large meeting extensions. It’s doable, they just choose not to. They like to fly overseas to lecture us about reducing our “carbon footprint” all the while they do nothing to lower their own. 3️⃣ Wealthier alarmists are still living on or buying oceanfront property. If ocean levels were really rising at a catastrophic rate (as opposed to the gradual increase that is actually occurring), then they would move inland and banks would not approve loans. 4️⃣ Alarmists rarely, if ever criticize China and India, and they always come up with all sorts of wonderful excuses as to why those nations get a free pass to continue emitting so-called “carbon pollution.” 5️⃣ The only solutions they offer involve increased governmental power. Higher taxes. EV mandates. Restrictions or bans on the energy sectors they don’t like. And, as an added bonus, no real-world data proves, much less suggests that we are facing an “existential crisis.” Even the IPCC doesn’t use such rhetoric because it isn’t based on science. I don’t deny that climate change exists. It always has. And, I don’t even deny that at least some of the increase in temperatures is anthropogenic. But I just don’t care because it isn’t that big of a deal. Extreme weather cannot be taxed away. Our vulnerability will continue to increase so long as we build in disaster-prone areas. Politicians cannot take our wallets and set a thermostat on the planet.

COMMUNIST CHINA got caught red-handed, headed to Iran to provide them with dual-use chemicals used to create BALLISTIC MISSILES while our great military is fighting in the Gulf. This is EXACTLY why they are our enemy, and an imminent threat to our national security.

China’s Communists are destroying Chinese society.

Falcon flies every few days. You can see launches in person from Florida or California.

🇨🇳 Tens of thousands of young Chinese people are becoming homeless, Because they are Blacklisted by Social Credit System. Once you are blacklisted, the digital wallet WeChat immediately bans you from spending your own digital money, or receiving salary..So you become homeless😭

China is creating an underclass that one day will start a revolution. Has Xi Jinping heard of the French Revolution?

True

Honda just announced it's closing two factories in China. Most people shrugged. They shouldn't have. Honda sold 1.627 million cars in China in 2020. By 2025 that number had collapsed to 645,000, five straight years of decline, and now the factories in Guangzhou and Wuhan are shutting down. But Honda is not the story. Honda is just the latest chapter. Here's the actual story, told in numbers. In 2021, foreign direct investment(FDI) into China hit an all-time record of $344 billion. By 2023 it had crashed to $33 billion, an 80% collapse in two years. By 2024 net inbound FDI was just $4.5 billion, the lowest figure since 1991. And in the same year, China recorded a net FDI outflow of $168 billion, the single largest capital flight in data going back to 1990. Foreign investors pulled money out. Chinese investors sent $173 billion abroad. Both groups were voting with their wallets at the same time, in the same direction, away from China. This didn't happen overnight. It started with the trade war in 2018 and compounded with every year that followed. Here's who has already left or is in the process of leaving, across every sector. Automotive: Mitsubishi Motors fully exited in 2023 after sales collapsed from 179,000 units in 2018 to just 33,000 in 2022. Honda is now closing two plants. Multiple other automakers are scaling back production capacity. Technology: IBM shut its entire China R&D division in August 2024, affecting over 1,000 employees. Yahoo pulled out in 2021. LinkedIn shut down its social platform in China in 2021. Amazon closed its China Marketplace in 2019 and its Kindle Store in 2023. Blizzard Entertainment, the gaming giant behind World of Warcraft, exited in January 2023. Samsung closed its last Chinese smartphone factory in 2019, its last TV factory in 2020, and its last PC plant in 2022. Consumer and retail: Airbnb suspended all China operations in 2022. Ito-Yokado, Japan's major retail chain, has withdrawn. Nike has been shifting supply chains to Southeast Asia and Africa. Steve Madden moved production to Cambodia and Brazil. Superdry exited the Chinese market entirely. Electronics and manufacturing: Apple has been aggressively diversifying to India and Vietnam, with JP Morgan projecting China's share of Apple production dropping from 95% to under 75%. Google moved Pixel phone production to Vietnam and Thailand. Dell shifted away from Chinese-made chips. GoPro moved US-bound production to Mexico. Panasonic and Sony have both significantly reduced their China footprint. Professional services: Dentons, one of the world's largest law firms, formally split from its Chinese branch. Gallup shut down its China operations. Japanese companies alone have seen withdrawal volumes accelerate every year since 2021, with exits now consistently outpacing new investment. The phrase "world's factory" was built over 40 years. The unwinding is happening faster than almost anyone predicted. And Beijing's response, raids on foreign firms, strict data laws, opaque regulations, and a legal environment where companies cannot trust the rules won't change overnight, has done nothing to slow it. The capital doesn't lie. When $168 billion walks out the door in a single year, that's not a blip. That's a verdict. #China #FDI #CCP #Economy #Manufacturing #SupplyChain #Decoupling #GlobalTrade #Honda #Geopolitics

Honda is closing two plants in China. Xi Jinping apparently thought foreign companies would stay in China no matter what he did to them. Now, foreign manufacturers have had enough and are fleeing.

Good to ESG plummeting in popularity!

Time is the ultimate fact-checker.

Why are we selling advanced tech to China? Do we really want to hand the 21st century to the CCP? Because that is precisely what we are doing.

Some Senators are trying to revive solar and wind subsidies, and claiming that they will reduce energy prices. In reality, subsidies raised energy prices by flooding the grid with intermittent, uneconomic solar and wind, which defunded reliable, economic coal, gas, and nuclear plants. Cutting the subsidies was a necessary (though not sufficient) step toward lowering prices!

Do not sell China the chips it wants to use to bury us.
