Above is a data product of the United States government. It shows that heatwaves in the 1930s were far worse than during any decade since then. The point is that, in the 1930s, the co2 level was much lower than it is today. Therefore, if the Al Gore Climate Theory were true, then America would have had either much cooler weather in the 1930s ... or else it would have had End-of-the-World heat, beginning in 1942.
But, a cold phase began in the '40s and continued into the early-1970s, followed by the Year 1979's return-to-the-cold, when the Arctic had its largest amount of sea ice in recorded history. This cold spell occurred while the atmosphere was gaining CO2.
On January 23rd, 2024, (effective as of January 26th) the Biden/Harris Administration, through Jennifer Granholm, placed a pause on processing LNG EXPORT PERMIT APPLICATIONS. This involved any nation to which the US did not have an existing free trade agreement. None the less, this was a sneaky way of beginning the process of banning fracking, in part or in whole. Of course, the ships which already were greenlighted for sea travel got to sail the oceans. But, the issuing of new LNG export permits was put on hold.
The great grief to this entire issue is that, during 2023 ... and later in 2024 ... the United States ended up setting record highs for exporting Liquid National Gas. In fact, the US became the world's #1 producer of LNG in 2023. Therefore, an Al Gore follower was going to have to put an end to this, in the name of reducing the "carbon footprint."
However, Methane only exists in the Earth's atmosphere at 2 parts per million. And the cartoon-character comedy to this fear of methane is that each methane molecule only contains one carbon atom. Each methane molecule additionally contains four hydrogen atoms.
That's not much of a carbon footprint, compared to the carbon that you exhale every half-minute or so. A human exhales approximately 2.3 lbs of co2 per day. That's 839 pounds per year. Thus, 8 billion humans exhale 6,700,000,000 lbs of co2 each year. Therefore, expect the psychopathic division of the Al Gore political camp to advocate the elimination of human beings and all other mammals from the Face of the Earth. Yes, humans are destroying the Earth, they claim. So, you must destroy humans.
In reality, the Earth was made for man and not man for the Earth. We live in the Age of Filtration, where we can solve environmental problems in a high tech fashion. Ironically, there are effective filters which are made of carbon which happen to be very good for the environment. Gotcha.
The excuse for the export permit pause was to update the science. The Biden Administration needed to take time to "evaluate the impacts of LNG exports on energy costs, America’s energy security, and climate change – the existential threat of our time." The quote is taken from the White House, itself.
This was nothing more than the search for an excuse to ban fracking, as it applies to natural gas. So, this pause predictably continued through June of 2024. Then came a federal judge's intervention in early July of 2024.
If you seek a general idea of how this LNG permit process works, click on the link below:
In addition: CO2 exists in the Earth's atmosphere at 427 parts per million, as of July 2025. Well, 427 ppm is less than 1/2 of 1/10 of 1%. Plus, the radiative forcing of co2 in the 21st Century has been 3.7 watts per meter squared. A residential night light that is found in many hallways emits 3 to 9 watts each.
Moreover, 90% of all greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is WATER VAPOR. But, Granholm and the other Al Gore Believers insisted that LNG will cause climate devastation. Well, if you were to study weather history, you would see that many disastrous weather events occurred in the past 800 years, and most of those years were years of very low co2 levels in the atmosphere. According to the Al Gore Theory, historic weather events should never have happened. But, they're in the history books.
Temperatures ... in intervals of time ... were outrageously high in past 90 to 125 years, when co2 levels were much lower than today. Even in 1895, there was a heatwave that made history. Meanwhile, the co2 level at the time did NOT make history.
The theory promoted by Al Gore in 2006 has repeatedly been disproven. All that the scientists have been doing is seeking to prove the existence of atmospheric positive feedbacks which would cause atmospheric turbulence on its own power and then trigger massive & brutal storms. Such scientists only depend on computer models. But, models are NOT evidence. Evidence involves things that actually did happen in time and space.
Concerning co2, it has three modes of vibration, namely the bend, the symmetric stretch, and the asymmetric stretch. When co2 is in the symmetric stretch mode, it's incapable of retaining infrared heat. While in the Symmetric Stretch CO2 is not a greenhouse gas.
There are more than 60 educational posts here, at the Blue Marble Album, which cover climate and weather history. Each post was designed for novices ... beginners ... people easily deceived by con artists. They contain charts, graphs, news reports of decades past, log entries, satellite imagery, and links to more needed info.
Now, being that LNG was being investigated, if there were findings that LNG is detrimental to life-on-earth, then the Biden People would have to ban it. Perhaps Joe & Kamala would have ended up saying that they didn't ban fracking, but "science did" ... of Jennifer Granholm did. And of course, present science bases its claim of a pending climate catastrophe on computer models. And again, as was repeatedly stated, models are NOT evidence. Models are not proof.
Concerning the evidence which proves the Al Gore Believers wrong is that there has not arose the Category 6 type of hurricane as a common cyclone. Rather, in recent years, there has been an increase of SHORT DURATION CYCLONES. This is already covered in another post in the Blue Marble Album. There's a search box at the top right-hand corner of this screen.
Above: Another United States government product. It illustrates that short duration storms have increased, at least with America's high tech monitoring systems. The point to showing this is that Al Gore predicted in 2006 that we would have much stronger cyclones in the 2010s, 2020s, and so on. Well, monitoring devices are finding more short duration storms in the Atlantic Ocean.
One theory is that more short duration storms are being found, due to more advanced technology. However, that technology already existed with satellites which have been in use for decades.
If you look at a statistical chart on Atlantic Basin cyclones, you just might realize that there has been an increase of WEAKER STORMS and not stronger ones. These storms which are too weak to be classified as hurricanes are called, Tropical Storms.
The massive, blockbuster, End-of-the-World cyclones that Al Gore predicted did NOT materialize. So, it would be logical to conclude that the increase of short duration cyclones on monitoring devices is due to an actual increase of shorter storms in the Atlantic Basin.
Once again, the weather that the world has experienced in the past four years was NOT any worse than weather experienced for the past 150 years, in specific intervals of time. As an example, since 1851, there have only been FOUR Category 5 hurricanes that made landfall in the Continental United States. In the 21st Century, there has been a grand total of one; Hurricane Michael.
For the record, even though Hurricane Dorian was the strongest to hit the Bahamas, it made landfall as a Category 2 in the United States. More importantly, the Labor Day 1935 Hurricane which hit Florida hard was just as powerful as Hurricane Dorian, and this was during a time when the co2 level was much less than it is today.
Even in the 1500s & 1700s, there were devastating hurricanes. The deadliest of the hurricanes was in 1780. In fact, the 1300s had devastating storms, too. Even earlier was a storm that arose in 1287 and rearranged the coastline of the Netherlands. It was called the St. Lucy's Flood, because it happened on December 13th.
And of course, the co2 level at the time of the St. Lucy's Flood was a lot lower than it is today. So, Al Gore is a liar. An increase in CO2 does NOT cause an increase in intense storms. He simply has a lot of accomplices who used his theory to score a lot of American taxpayer dollars, sometimes through UN propaganda which gets to be presented as absolute fact without anyone challenging the UN's declaratory statements in any court.
The one thing which proves the UN to be a worthless fraud is that it was founded to prevent war and bring world peace. Well, from its founding in October of 1945 until the start of the 2022 Ukrainian-Russian War, there were 285 recorded armed conflicts on Planet Earth, in 80 years' time. The UN failed. War is the existential threat to mankind; not CO2 at 427 ppm and not Methane at 2 parts per million.
There are 60+ Climate discourses at the Blue Marble Album which address today's Climate Hysteria in extreme detail. Go and look for yourself. Below is a White House statement of the Biden-Harris Administration, concerning the "LNG permit pause." Of course, you know by now that both Joe and Kamala are serial liars. Joe as a notorious liar goes back to the 1988 presidential campaign, on camera. In fact, Joe goes further back, off camera, with his lying.

Now, in 2024, Kamala kept saying that she will not ban fracking. In 2020, she said that Joe Biden will not ban fracking. Well, Biden-HARRIS already let happen what leads to the banning of fracking.
Next came the Biden-HARRIS stonewalling, as was previously mentioned. February, March, April, May, and June passed. No permits for exporting Liquefied Natural Gas were issued. The expanding of fracking operations were put on hold. Then, on the 1st of July, a federal judge in Louisiana struck-down the Biden-HARRIS ban.
"In his ruling, Judge Cain said, “It appears that the DOE’s decision to halt the permit approval process for entities to export LNG to non-FTA countries is completely without reason or logic and is perhaps the epiphany of ideocracy." DOE stands for Dept of Energy.

The aforementioned shows that Kamala Harris continues to be nothing but a liar. You cannot trust anything that she says. The truth means nothing to her. Only winning elections do.
