For those who have been paying attention, the stunning collapse of the climate scam over the past year has been something to behold.
First there was the COP Flop.
Then the US withdrew from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
Then Judith Curry retired her blog, opining that “Itโs time to declare victory against climate stupidity and move on.”
Thenย The Guardian published an article lamenting that less than 5% of UK media outlets have used the recent European heat wave as an excuse to promote Net Zero propaganda.
And now even The New York Times is waving the white flag on the climate Armageddon story…well, kind of.
So, what on earth is happening? How did we go from a world where the climate apocalypse was touted as an existential threat to life on earth and trumpeted on the news every single day to a world where climate change isn’t even on the radar anymore?
Let’s find out.









Before reading, this is a genuine question i have, even since the last post on the climate scam: How do you know this? What makes you say this? In my country nothing whatsoever has changed and 99% of the mainstream is still strongly advocating anthropogenic …., even more so since the recent heat wave in europe. So how is it possible that you and Judith Curry declare victory while i feel, see, smell and taste nothing of the sort??? Is this something like crystal ball reading that i just don’t get???
I made a summary of the climate reality:
https://thescienceanalyst.substack.com/p/global-warming-science
There is some new trends in climate science, where they admit that the climate is not going to be a disaster. Also it is well known in science that CO2 is not dangerous.
But you are correct. The media never tells us the scientific facts.
They deliver political based stories. In the EU everyone is still made scared of the summer.
67,
That summary also has some great images!
I like that “Time Magazine” IMAGE.
Re: other false narratives:
Knew about “globaloney” right away, Al Gore’s movie was pathetic.
My “favorite” false narrative is the medical industry stranglehold over “health”. I learned so much the past five years after a scare diagnosis, many prescriptions dodged due to not believing they were right, sucked into many unnecessary and harmful tests, and finally after yet another ER visit finding out on my own research that Ibuprofin (Advil in my case) leads to 100k heart-related ER visits annually. Had to learn that one myself, if any of these “doctors” had said something about that at the beginning, would have avoided them leaching off my insurances and mental frame of mind right away. But the unofficial motto is “curing is a bad business model”, as OBummer Care and private equity continues to dominate the industry. Stopped, and no problems anymore. but from that vantage point watched the medical martial law played out over vaccines (none help, all harm) and the fake COVID “virus”, you know, the one never isolated. Like all phantom “viruses”, which is the foundation of the massive increase in the industry and poor health outcomes. But truth in this area would destroy the economy now.
In Dec 2021 I wrote this:
ITโS NOT A VACCINE (song)
https://old.bitchute.com/video/RkHfzBl9DXgV/
Sometimes it is not long winded conversations that communicate well. Just a simple song can leave a lasting impression. Five years ago seems a life time for many who made the mistake of taking the jab and now, as predicted by many of us back then, “sudden deaths” are becoming commonplace :-/
gonna leave this article about Cholesterol and Statins here:

The Europe Union’s best ways to “cool the planet”:
I wonder if starting Forest Fires is on that list of ways to “cool” the planet.
The Hopi Indians used fire as a method of clearing the ground by managing not fighting fire!
Opening remarks offered by Maurice Strong, who organized the first U.N. Earth Climate Summit (1992) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, revealed the real goal:
โWe may get to the point where the only way of saving the world will be for industrialized civilization to collapse. Isnโt it our responsibility to bring this about?โ
– – – – – – – – – – – – –
Speaking at the Rio conference, Deputy Assistant of State Richard Benedick, who then headed the policy divisions of the U.S. State Department said:
โA global warming treaty [Kyoto] must be implemented even if there is no scientific evidence to back the [enhanced] greenhouse effect.โ
– – – – – – – – – – – – –
Former U.S. Senator Timothy Wirth (D-CO), then representing the Clinton-Gore administration as U.S Undersecretary of State for global issues, addressing the same Rio Climate Summit audience:
โWe have got to ride the global warming issue. Even if the theory of global warming is wrong, we will be doing the right thing in terms of economic policy and environmental policy.โ
(Wirth now heads the UN Foundation which lobbies for hundreds of billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars to help underdeveloped countries fight climate change.
Right now it is about 5:30PM and a wonderful hard driving afternoon monsoon is outside my door just like the past 10 years up here in the mountains. It is all called weather hey? ๐
Uprooting the Climate Change scam is one thing Trump got right, but he fell right into the AI Data Canter scam. The bottom line is that both scams have the common thread of killing off mass numbers of people. Many of these Oligarchs believe that they are doing humanity a favor by reducing world population. Hitler had a similar plan to today’s Zionists. They just want the entire world for themselves and they are willing to do some evil things to get it.
oh, thereโs definitely a climate change, but itโs caused by geo-engineering by the governments. Hereโs the link that totally explains everything with credible sources.
https://geoengineeringwatch.org/geoengineering-watch-global-alert-news-july-18-2026-571/
Exactly see my comment above!
I was with a 4 year old the other day who noticed the chemtrails and asked me what they were. I told her it was geoengineering and that she was more observant than 90% of adults. Everyone in the restaurant turned and looked at me lol
No we cant move on. Even though the public discourse is largely that the climate fear mongering is a scam, the banks still use UN’s SDG goals to manage institutions through financial manipulation. If companies want to borrow they need to meet SDG Goals. Governments need to meet SDG goals to get IMF loans. Blackrock & Vanguard still influence the companies they invest in. This all feeds back to the general public whether they are aware of it or not. The UN SDG beast has just gone underground… for now.
The EscapeKey substack does a good job of chronicling this. I highly recommend it..

Thank you James! Yet another helpful thorough newsletter. I added it to my Climate Change doc with resources.
As one of the organisers of IPC16 Thailand 2026, International Permaculture Convergence, I am bringing these kind of ideas and resources to the permaculture related groups and people in hope to show that the climate science is not as settled as many believe.
It would be great to see some Corbett Report members in November. More details here https://thaipermaculture.org/events/ipc16/
The event is created mostly by participants who want to share their knowledge, experience and skills on anything based on 3 Ethics: People Care, Earth Care, Fair Share.
Awareness and Solutions are equally important.
I hope to healthy debate about Climate there.
seems couching climate discussion with the factors of human pollution may be used to distract from the real culprit creating weather anomalies,, drum roll/cymbal crash, yes for the ultimate in global domination weaponry its,,,, “weather engineering” that type of tech could explain random fire starts and ensuing evidence of dew or other yet to be determined physics,. Or jet stream manipulation to hurricane steer or even stop entire systems of flow. (upper atmospheric heating).. bring water, fire, drought, snow, next they’ll be vibrating the crust for targeted earthquakes.
The counter conspiracy, which I’m hoping is the truth, is that all those non-dissolving jet exhaust trails, are just another psyop/lie to rabbit hole the whistleblowers, chasing that truther dollar.
It’s not dead in the UK yet by a long shout. This piece of fear porn is doing the rounds with viewings being hosted up and down the country. There is a viewing scheduled and hosted by the Green loons in our village. Most people here are quite rational but they are still hooked on the Climate Scam. “The National Emergency Briefing”.
https://www.nebriefing.org/
Look on the bright side. As the Starmer unit goes off for refurbishment following a series of system malfunctions, that northern lad Andy parachutes into NO10 tomorrow to steer the UK forward (no doubt on exactly the same disastrous course). I note, however, that Burnham looks set to sideline net zero zealot Ed Milliband and has promised to increase drilling for oil in the North Sea. He’s also promised to scrap digital ID. He’s known as “flip-flop” Andy for a reason so I’m not holding my breath.
Two cheeks of the same backside. It will only get worse. Just trying to buy some popularity amongst the plebs.
We have to wonder though why we are coated up there with a wispy whiteness which is not normal cloud? This leaves us under a super airless heat dome for hours overnight so it is difficult to breathe! Could this be geoengineering and a reason for super strong heat – the solution becoming the problem, affecting the protective ozone layer and the sky becoming a dumping ground to block out the sun? We are frying in France, the animals are passing out and you have to stay in and find shade after 4pm.
Thanks James for another great article. Its conclusion too is ver motivating.
As a Canadian living in Germany, I can laugh (better than crying)a lot at the suicidal net 0โฌ behavior of the Europeans. They are not rich as the North Americans in ressources and space, so the bad corrupt decisions bite sooner here. I feel though, that people here start to wake up (in Canada too). Everything has become to obvious. Are we going to have a Frank Zappa’s Theater moment?
Do not forget the cow farts I tell to my normies friends, while you look at the news of wars everywhere.
Meanwhile with Climate Glaring scam, real pollution was hidden.
Thanks also to all of “us” not because we were mostly right. Because we are free thinkers & care for the others…normies included.
Cittroen_DS,
You bring up a great comparison that exposes the lunacy…
The Climate Change weighting of Cow Farts vs the War Machine.
Of course the Europeans, Canadians and others will carry on preaching the “Climate Scam”, and the thing is, if ever there is a climate issue we might be facing, it is one that makes what they call “fossil fuels”, and a few things the Net Zero policy threatens us with, vital for our survival.
Please watch this podcast from James Delingpole with Professor Valentina Zharkova, a Ukrainian Mathematician and Physicist who has been studying the solar cycles and solar activities for years. Her language is a bit tough to understand for the majority of us, but it’s worth watching it to the end.
Thank you as always James ๐

Hey James, great article! It’s just starting to melt (LoL). Cheers!
—- The Earth Day Special —- ABC TV – April 22, 1990 – A two-hour special
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Earth_Day_Special
From my memory of 1990, people were not concerned about global warming. Maybe there was talk about the ozone layer and how are we going to maintain our car air conditioners in Texas.
Just below the image of Kermit the Frog, James Corbett links to the WayBack Machine VIDEO.
I watched parts, sometimes skimming a few minutes to the next scene.
What struck me was that points of the video actually held a sane perspective. Even at the beginning roll-out, Bugs Bunny did not want pesticides on his carrots. The video was laced valid aspects such as clean water and no toxic pollutants in our environment. Most sane people would agree that they don’t want to eat, drink or breath poisons.
That is clever.
Sales people will tell you to find areas of agreement with your audience, and then slowly shift that agreement to a new perspective like global warming. Do the shift in a heart-warming fashion.
E.T. slowly points a magic finger to spring forth a glowing book. E.T. gifts the book to a group of children.
Then…
…as sick Mother Earth was perhaps dying…
…armed with the book, the kids take the platform and suddenly announce that acid rain, air pollution and global warming is something that we can do something about….
“…we are here to save Mother Earth and the book says that the best way to do it is by reducing energy…”
oh dogs…”the reduce your energy consumption” canard…
QUEUED 48:46 – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uz0HzS1O-ug&t=2926s
I’m just not made for two hour sermons.
James,
It really depends where you look. Take in our native Canuckistan (Canada) where the Climate Scam is actually accelerating rapidly. Some background info first, then a few examples of how it is expanding (particularly through AI).
BACKGROUND:
1) My most viewed article on my Substack with over 20k views:
– Apologies to the World: The Great Climate Scam was launched at a Club of Rome Meeting in 1971 by Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, continued by Justin Trudeauhttps://fournier.substack.com/p/apologies-to-the-world-the-great
> shows how Papa Trudeau started the scam along with his right-hand man Maurice Strong.
> shows how Justin continued papa’s climate legacy
2) We both know Mark Carnage was placed to implement the scam to its fullest degree in Canada.
– Meet Canadaโs new Prime Minister Mark Carney who will usher in his Globalist Climate Swindlehttps://fournier.substack.com/p/meet-canadas-new-prime-minister-mark
> Carney is the principle architect of the climate-finance-scam world wide, not just in Canada; here is a mind map showing it:
>> https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!RWsm!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0951a7ca-7024-4a57-ad94-f384c280dbde_3509x2481.jpeg
3) OSFI leading the net zero madness to zero emissions by 2050 by forcing banks and major financial institutions to implement insane climate policies:
– Section 3. The Enablers: Canadaโs Big Banks + Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI)https://fournier.substack.com/i/145251082/3-the-enablers-canadas-big-banks-office-of-the-superintendent-of-financial-institutions-osfi
RECENT EXAMPLE OF EXPANSION:
– As reported by the IJF (Investigative Journalism Foundation), a July 3, 2026 lobbying effort [by an outfit you probably never heard about] sees RiskThinking.ai seeking a huge government contract:
https://theijf.org/lobbying-registry/963531-385544
If the info is behind a paywall, here are parts of it re-copied:
===BEGIN
What is being lobbied?
Government Contract Pursued
Policies or Program
Policies or Program, Grant, Contribution or Other Financial Benefit
Regulation
===END
As you can see, this is quite HUGE in scope and scale. Now, in my own reply below (so as to not make this comment too long) I will show you the Board members of riskthinking.ai which is rather telling…
About riskthinking.ai:
Forget the Executive Team, but rather look at who is on the Board of Directors & Advisors – these aren’t chumps (partial list):
– David Dodge – Former Governor of the Bank of Canada
– Chris Hadfield – Former Commander of the International Space Station
– Andy Chisholm – Board Director at RBC
– Anatol Von Hahn – Former Head of Scotiabank Canada
– Mark Hughes – Board Director at UBS
– Douglas E. Turnbull, Chair, Financial Services Regulatory Authority
– Yaacov Mutnikas – Senior Advisor at S&P Global
– Kevin Stiroh – Former Federal Reserve Official
From these, I think you can deduce what they are advising and which aspects are going to be incorporating the various facets of the climate looting mechanisms.
AI will also be leveraged for assessing how banks, financial institutions, and, eventually, every single Canadian business is incorporating the faux climate models into their operations. I’ve been documenting these shenanigans for nearly four years now (see my first article here: – EXPOSร: Canadian Residents & Businesses are about to be Carbon-Taxed into Oblivion, Oct 25, 2022, https://fournier.substack.com/p/expose-canadian-residents-and-businesses).
CONCLUSION:
So, there isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell that the Great Climate Scam is fading any time soon in Canada. Au contraire mon ami. It’s scope and scale is well beyond what you can imagine.
HRS – Thanks for the Mountain Dew deep dive episode. I foresee a promising political career for this porta potty prisoner. The Greta graphic for this CR episode urged me to explore her current activities. Did a Gootube search: “Greta Thunberg 2026”. These were 2 of the first results –
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8x_s_SxRh38
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/YEcH1wG_Be4
She’s 23 now and it appears no one is pulling her strings these days. If Greta can grow up, perhaps there’s hope for the rest of us.
A friend of mine is an ex-pat Canadian living in Spain for the past 30 years, thus cheering for the Spanish national team during the World Cup. Needless to say, enthusiastic about the recent victory over France, and doubly delighted to see this display during the Fermin Festival in Pamplona – https://www.youtube.com/shorts/vP_BX9IRn4s
A wise man once told the audience in his show that you cannot rely on Nationalism to defeat Globalism. Relying on one form of authoritarianism to defeat another form of authoritarianism only makes one more susceptible to the manipulation of that authority.
And now we are supposed to rejoice over the same authority โhelpingโ to dismantle climate change legislation. Or that the dinosaur media are helping to cement into history that this is a period of time where mankind disregard climate change science.
But that is not what I see on the ground. On the ground, everywhere around me, there is no talk at all about the evils, or at least, the mistakes of Agenda 2030. All I see is more and more solar panels, EVs, EV charging stations, smart meters being deployed.
We know this authoritarian that so fervently wanted to dismantle the legislation also happens to be the last representative of the Unipolar World Order and is purposefully chosen to represent the ugliness of it, to manufacture consent for the Multipolar New World Order. When he goes down, his policies and his policiesโ supporters will be vilified. Itโs hard to not imagine that an artificial climate crisis is in the cards.. It would have been much more reassuring if Trump simply stopped at โClimate change is a hoaxโ. But for a globalist lackey, a Hitler replacement when World War 3 breaks out, to go out of his way to show history the actions of a madman is to dismantle climate change legislation, it is more reason for worry than for joy.
We need to see through the false wins in order not to fall for the narrative.

They are coming for our water now!
โWhy is water such a fantastic opportunity to advance the SDGs? Few have answered this question as well as Mariana Mazzucato (co-chair of the Global Commission on the Economics of Water) at a 2022 WEF event:
Water, in other words, is their perfect testing ground: tangible, emotional, and universalโ.
https://unshadowed.substack.com/p/theyre-coming-for-your-water-global
Any high school student ,especially in Japan, should be able to calculate that there are 70 times more water molecules than CO2 molecules in the air at sea level. Each of those water molecules absorb 2 or maybe 5 times the infrared light reflected from the
earth than a CO2 molecule. Therefore a water molecule will absorb at least 140 times more energy than a CO2 molecule. Depending on who you ask, 5% to 33% of CO2 molecules are man made. So, 3X140=420 is the multiplier one would use to compare
the effectiveness of water over CO2 to trap heat in the Atmosphere. CO2 traps 0.24%
of the heat energy leaving the earth compared to water vapor. A large fraction of infrared light reflected from the earth is still nonetheless able to escape back to space.
Went out to water my crops this morning – 6:30 am – in a wonderful cool breeze. Found a couple of new watermelons on the vines. Decided a bit of extra water would get them through the day. An ordinary summer morning in Osaka. Get home and the TV is on – not my choice. The black screen is showing all kinds of red and orange thermal images of festival goers, all holding hand-held fans in front of their faces. The chyron is blaring, “Danger! Heat stroke! Best not to go out today!”
… last time I had cognitive dissonance this bad was back in 2020.
Love you James! Even brushing against the whisker tips of your wit and wisdom makes me feel smarter and more scam-resistant. Thank you so so much for your decades of critical work!
James Corbett has done some good work in the past, but why does he believe he knows how [all] psyops work? He met the Wizard of Oz? In my journalistic work, I am highlighting evidence that James does NOT UNDERSTAND how most of the major psyops work (to drum up divisions toward Babylon’s fav trump card: obliterating controlled revolutions, a la the French, the Bolshevik, the Maoist etc.) Visit christrescues.substack.com if you dare vomit up the red pill you were fed.
