CALGARY, Ala., Sept. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As reported by the Calgary Herald, Sept. 18, 2023, opening remarks by Jonathan Wilkinson, Canada's Minister of Natural Resources, pushing for fossil fuel phase out to stop climate change, was met with fierce rejection by Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, says Friends of Science.

Key Points: 
  • Lyman's most recent report, " Let's Not Pursue "Peak Oil" – The Risks to Society of a Global Oil Shortfall Due to Climate Fear " addresses another popular topic at the World Petroleum Congress.
  • Only 7% of those polled are concerned about climate change, as discussed in this video explainer by Friends of Science Society.
  • Minister Wilkinson's push for NetZero is "Magical Thinking " that will not stop climate change, says Friends of Science Society.
  • It will cost Canada trillions of dollars, according to a Friends of Science assessment of the under-estimated Royal Bank Transition plan .

CALGARY, Alberta, July 27, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As reported by CNBC on July 18, 2022, UN Sec-Gen Antonio Guterres, incorrectly claimed heat waves, floods and sea level rise were caused by society's 'fossil fuel addiction', calling for 'collective action over collective suicide' to move to renewables – an impossibility since all renewables are made from fossil fuels, says Friends of Science.

Key Points: 
  • UN Sec-Gen Guterres' address to Petersburg Climate Dialogue illustrated the energy illiteracy of climate ideologues, says Friends of Science, saying he should step down for misleading the world.
  • Likewise, climate ideologues, using skewed assessments of livestock and fertilizer emissions, are tinkering with food and farming systems that work well; global famine looms - this must stop.
  • This is a catastrophic full-scale lab experiment of what Guterres proposes for the entire world, says Friends of Science.
  • In addition to climate tinkering with fertilizer and farming methods, Friends of Science says the attacks on livestock are not supported by the scientific evidence.

CALGARY, Alberta, July 14, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Financial Post of July 09, 2022, reported that Canada will release a sanctioned, overhauled gas turbine to Germany, for use in Russia's Nord Stream 1 gas pipeline, hopefully preventing a further collapse of Germany's economy, says Friends of Science. Critics denounced the move as conflicting with Canada's "Stand with Ukraine" policy. According to Canada's international trade website: "Germany, with the largest economy in the EU and the fourth largest in the world … Germany is Canada's largest export market in the EU…with two-way merchandise trade totaling $25.8 billion in 2021."

Key Points: 
  • In addition to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, global energy shortages have been driven by UNPRI/World Economic Forum focus on ESG investing and oil/gas divestment, in turn creating fertilizer shortages, meaning a global food crisis looms.
  • Friends of Science Society's 2016 report " Undue Influence Markets Skewed " identified that ESG and 'sustainable accounting' manipulate markets and investments.
  • Prevention of an energy crisis and famine are in the public interest, says Friends of Science.
  • Friends of Science Society is an independent group of earth, atmospheric and solar scientists, engineers, and citizens that is celebrating its 20th year of offering climate science insights.

CALGARY, Alberta, June 8, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- JP Morgan's 2022 Annual Energy Paper issued in May, subtitled "The Elephants in the Room" brings some gripping and grim reality to the Utopian goals of NetZero, ESG and climate lockdown advocates, says Friends of Science Society. "The Elephants in the Room" challenges many of the breezy assumptions of climate activists and financiers like Mark Carney and GFANZ collection*, whose recent DAVOS appearance suggests that just throwing money at climate and energy issues will result in magical results, when this is nothing more than Magical Thinking, as Robert Lyman has reported. (*GFANZ – Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero)

Key Points: 
  • One must compare the change of emissions to the annual change of CO2 concentrations, not to the cumulative CO2.
  • Climate lockdowns and cuts as proposed by Mazzucato and the UNEP would be a useless effort to mitigate climate change, but a catastrophic blow to human civilization.
  • Friends of Science Society is an independent group of earth, atmospheric and solar scientists, engineers, and citizens that is celebrating its 20th year of offering climate science insights.
  • After a thorough review of a broad spectrum of literature on climate change, Friends of Science Society has concluded that the sun is the main driver of climate change, not carbon dioxide (CO2).
