‘Climate Crisis’ Lies Are Killing People

The thoroughly mendacious “climate crisis” narrative, which has been consistently and wildly wrong for 50 years and continues to be wrong now, has turned deadly. People are dying as a result of terrible policies based off climate change hysteria.

I just reported for PJ Media on a media call where several climate experts agreed that government negligence and obsession with “climate change,” driven and justified by the media’s anti-science fearmongering on the topic, were at least partly responsible for the devastating and deadly fire in Lahaina, Maui. That fire left likely 1000 or more casualties (including an unknown number of children).

The experts said Maui was warned of the risk of wildfires, Hawaii’s governor spent millions on fighting “climate change,” and Hawaii Electric gave the Hawaiian government a $190 million plan to prevent wildfires (which the government “sat on”)…and yet there was no water to fight the fire, no preventative measures were taken ahead of time, and people were blocked from escaping. The whole thing was a disaster waiting to happen and then exacerbated either by deliberate malice or gross incompetence. In Lahaina, the climate lies drove policy-making and negligence that cost lives.
