Exchange with Lisa Friedman (NYT) on Climate Alarmist Reporting

“I will not be bullied but will make my case for objective reporting with the above data point of Seth Borenstein’s article.” (below)

Seth Borenstein posted on LinkedIn:

Scientists in thousands of peer reviewed studies detail, calculate the public health threats, deaths and illnesses from climate change. President Trump calls it all a scam. A detailed look at what the studies and scientists say about the research. The three experts quoted are both MDs and have extra degrees and are professors of public health.

A UK judge has reinforced the law that has climate alarmists up in protest. His was a good decision. But on LinkedIn, Ben Tolhurst, a climate busy body, complained:

My friend Amy [Pritchard of Extinction Rebellion] was jailed for 10 months this morning by judge Silas Reid for cracking a window [no, three windows costing $350,000] of JPMorgan Chase & Co., the world’s biggest funder of fossil fuels. I had the privilege of hearing her summing up speech last week and was sure that even the most hard hearted would be moved by her account of why she took the action.
