Wait, Bill Gates Did A 145 On Climate Change?

You cannot call it a 180, but Bill Gates made a remarkable shift on the hoax of climate change and to talk about it was geologist and author Greg Wrightstone, Executive Director of the CO2 Coalition.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:03):
Here we go our number two. Hosey over there in
Study one A. I'm here in Study one B. It's Monday,
November third, show fifty four eighty six of The Morning
Show with Preston Scott. Great to be with you. Friends.
We were introduced to this gentleman a long time ago
when his book Inconvenient Facts came out I got to
know Greg Wrightstone a little bit, and we've had him

(00:24):
as a guest on the program ever since. A second
book followed, A very Convenient Warming, and he is the
executive director of the CO two Coalition. Greg. Good to
have you back on the show. How are you, friend?

Speaker 2 (00:37):
Good? And I have good news to report from the
climate change front. We are winning bigly. That is good. Well.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
I you know, I called because I talked about you
last week when I saw the story in Epic Times
about Bill Gates. I won't call it a onet eighty.
I'll say it's one forty five. Is that fair? He
did a one?

Speaker 2 (01:02):
Yeah. He went about as far as you could expect
him to go by by what we're talking about here
is his near retraction of climate crisis. He says, you know,
I was wrong about this. You know, he says we'll
have serious consequences, but you know what, We're all going
to survive. People will be able to thrive and live

(01:23):
in nearly every climate. It's not going to be the
catastrophe that I've been talking about for the last thirty years.
And so this is a huge, huge reversal. And bear
in mind Bill Gates has been funding to the tunes
of hundreds of millions of dollars some of these many
other groups, and he's pulling his funding on some of these.

(01:44):
And one of those one of those organizations actually is
pulled from is the Breakthrough Institute. Ted Northhouse was the
founder there and he also almost I think it was
the day before the Gates came out. Ed Northhouse probably
never heard of him, but he was a huge climate alarmist,
and oh yeah, I said just about the same thing

(02:06):
he said, you know. And then following on to that,
we had interviews on Joe Rogan with our founder will
Have for doctor William Haffer and Richard Lyndzon the two
hours on Rogan that reached probably twenty million people talking
about the realities of climate change and how it's beneficial

(02:27):
not catastrophic.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Well, and then it still gets back down to you know,
we were just talking about a story greg In Maryland
Supreme Court is taking on a case brought by the
Council of Baltimore, the mayor and the city Council against
BP and they're claiming, you know, fossil fuels, climate change
costing all this damage, sea level rise, extreme weather, et cetera,
et cetera, et cetera. But what we constantly see is

(02:52):
none of the dire predictions, none of them happened. They
don't come true.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
They don't. You know, we have to wonder now why
Gates and Nordhouse and these others are moving back. And
I've been saying now for decades. You know, eventually the
truth will win out, and it always does. It just
might take longer than we would like. And I think
we're seeing that today. Like you say, the predictions they
make all false, are note of them put pan out,

(03:21):
and they continue doing it. Just last week about the
Great Barrier Reef. I'll be writing about that in the
newsletter this week, claiming that eighty percent of coral reefs
around the world are dying and nothing could be further
from the truth. The Great Barrier Reef in twenty twenty
four had the largest they started doing these surveys in
nineteen eighty three. In twenty twenty four, I had the

(03:44):
largest amount of coral that they've surveyed, breaking records of
healthy corals and the Great Barrier ief. But they're saying
just the opposite. They're lying, and they've been able to
lie and get away with it for decades.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
Now.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Hopefully that will altern around and we can expose and
we've been, you know, with your help, we've we've been
exposing some of their lives. But hopefully when we'll get
a big, big, big turnaround here and Gates can pulse
them in his funding like he is now, maybe some
of this climate rhetoric will be toned down and we'll

(04:19):
get the truth out there.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Back with geologists, Author and executive director of the CO
two Coalition, Greg Ridestone. Greg by trade, you you study
things in a very different world that takes a lot
of time, and yet you find yourself sort of steering
a coalition of scientists and experts that recognize that this

(04:51):
this move using what I call global warming as a vehicle.
We don't have time. We have to push because the
transformation to our economy and our culture has been pretty dramatic,
given it's been built on myths, it is.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
But you know what, boy, ever since Trump came in,
it's just been a u turn and we've been seeing
really really good things coming out of Washington, d C.
I never thought I would say that again after years
of the Biden administration just heaping one climate nonsense factoid
or non factoid onto another and imposing regulations and over

(05:35):
regulations on us. Chris Wright, it's the Department of Energy,
Lee Zelden at EPA. Boy, they're really really, really pushing back.
And here at the CO two Coalition we're working. We
provide the science, the facts and the data in support
of what Zeldm and Wright are doing. And even Chris

(05:55):
Duffiet or a Sean Duffy at the Department of Transportation,
we'll be filing a comment coming up on transportation issues.
And so that's our role as scientists. We stay out
of the politics as best we can. It's hard to
with this subject matter, but we supply that the facts
and the data is to support this. And we've got

(06:17):
to Our senior legal counsel is Chuck Weller, who's devised
to a great legal strategy using science and when we
file these comments for the EPA and Department of Energy
for their deregulation. These are all filed and created with
the expectation that it will eventually be heard at the

(06:40):
Supreme Court, because what they will do there's this called
the endangerment finding. Each of these repeals will go through
and then it will be sued by the Environmental Defense
Fund or whoever, and then it'll go to the Fifth
Circuit Court of DC that will rule in favor of
the alarmists, and then DOE or EPA will will appeal

(07:00):
that and ends up the Supreme Court. So our comments
and our science are all designed to be used so
it can be in support of the Supreme Court overturning
some of the previous really really bad rulings under both
Obama and Bid deministrations their epas. Because they've regulated, they

(07:22):
have systematically stripped freedoms away from everyone listening to this
this morning. You don't know the freedom to choose what
kind of light bulbs to use. Dishwashers, washer dryers, even
your ceiling fans are highly regulated. They're more expensive. They're
not more they say, for example, dishwasher precedent new dishwashers,

(07:46):
they say they're highly efficient. Well, i'll tell you what
the government's definition of efficient is a lot different than
my wife's definition. The government says they're using less electricity
and less water. That might be true. My wife's definition
of a good dishwasher is one that gets the dishes
cleaned and dried in thirty minutes or less, and we

(08:08):
don't have that now. These are now two and a
half to three and sometimes four hour cycles for a dishwasher,
all to save a couple of a couple little bit
of electricity and water.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Greg, you talk about the dam maybe possibly starting to break,
Is there one particular case, one particular regulation, one thing
that you're looking at that could be that part of
the dam that really opens it up.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
Oh, yes, yes, yes, it's already. They've already. It's the
card we've got the stack of cards or house of cards.
When we pull this one out, the whole house of
cards collapse. It's called the endangerment finding under the Obama
EPA in two thousand and nine, they found that the
carbon dioxide was a pollutant and could be regulated. It's

(08:56):
not a pollutant, No, it's not. And so this is
we filed comments were open. We filed two separate comments,
and bear in mind these comments need to be reviewed
by EPA and consideration of the repeal of this rule.
They need any any sufficient comment that's filed, they have

(09:18):
to consider it. And so we'll be using that and
that will eventually be used in the Supreme Court. And
so it's going through the it's gone through the comment process.
E p. A is in the process of going through
the thousands of comments that were filed, and I anticipate
at some point over the next few months E p.
A and Lee Zelda and will come out and say,

(09:38):
you know what, We're still going to be reviewed all
the comments and we're going to repeal it. And that's
when again one of the one of the alarmist groups
will will sue and it ends up the Fifth Circuit
and then the Supreme Court. But this endangerment finding is
what will bring this whole house of cards falling down
when it is repealed. That's everything is really been based

(09:59):
on this notion the carbon dioxide as a pollutant. It
is not. It's they call it the demon molecule. We
call it the miracle molecule.
