Winning: Gore Fears Climate Realists – The Climate Realism Show #165

Winning: Gore Fears Climate Realists – The Climate Realism Show #165

Author: The Heartland Institute July 23, 2025 Duration: 1:22:39

Losing the 2000 election was the best thing to happen to Al Gore. He has since become insanely wealthy and admired around the world by peddling climate alarmism. Hollywood gave him an Oscar for his fictitious documentary An Inconvenient Truth, and (like Michael Mann) he claims to be a Nobel Peace Prize winner for his environmental activism.

Yet despite trillions of dollars in propaganda, there’s a sign that Gore’s message of doom is in big trouble: He gave a TED Talk attacking “climate realists” by name. That’s BIG, folks—it shows that the truth, the data, and reality are winning.

The Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, and our special guest Lois Perry, director of Heartland UK/Europe, will cover some of the breaking and crazy climate news of the week from around the world.

Antarctica is gaining ice, defying the predictions of climate doomers. A BBC presenter is worried that climate scientists might be a monolithic ideological bloc. An environmental protection charity in Scotland is finally pushing back against wind power because of how it kills threatened bird species. And a “controlled burn” by our government betters turned into a raging inferno at the Grand Canyon that destroyed a historic building.

Tune in to the Environment and Climate News Podcast for conversations that cut through the noise on today's most pressing ecological and policy discussions. Produced by The Heartland Institute, this series brings forward voices often absent from mainstream coverage: scientists, researchers, and policy experts who approach topics with a measured, climate-realist perspective. Each episode digs into the data and reasoning behind energy and environmental decisions, offering analysis that challenges prevailing narratives without the alarmism. You'll hear detailed discussions on legislative developments, scientific findings, and the economic implications of various policy paths. This isn't about sensational headlines; it's about fostering a deeper, evidence-based understanding of how we manage our natural resources and respond to climatic changes. For anyone weary of one-sided debates and seeking substantive dialogue grounded in a non-alarmist philosophy, this podcast provides a necessary and thoughtful platform. Join the conversation to explore the complex intersection of environment, climate science, and political reality.
