Epic climate speech by Trump at the UN in New York
Trump to UN: ‘Climate change is the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world’. Most awesome & important climate/energy speech of his presidency, says Marc Morano.

Climate Depot’s Marc Morano comments: “President Trump delivered to the UN a speech that will go down in history as the most powerful, honest, and accurate climate speech ever given by a world leader. Trump’s speech –delivered face-to-face to a stunned UN General Assembly — was awesome — historically awesome! Trump eloquently mocked UN climate tipping points and the climate catastrophes that never happened.
Trump hit every central tenet of the climate movement, from failed doomsday predictions, to the ‘green scam’ to the ‘hoax’ of ‘carbon footprints,’ to past warnings about global cooling, to how ‘the radicalized environmentalists’ want to ‘kill all the cows,’ to how Net Zero ‘redistributes manufacturing’ to China.
Trump reached the pinnacle of his speech by summing up climate change as ‘the greatest con job ever perpetuated on the world.’ Historians will look back at Trump’s climate masterstroke as heralding the long-overdue end of the UN/Gore climate narrative. It was not long ago that most GOP politicians were terrified to challenge ‘climate change’, but now we finally have a U.S. president who is leading the world in beating back the unscientific climate nonsense.”

Key Trump quotes to UN:
“The greatest con job ever perpetuated on the world.”
“If you don’t get away from the green energy scam, your country is going to fail.”
“The carbon footprint is a hoax made up by people with evil intentions and they are heading down a path of total destruction.”
“In the US we still have radicalized environmentalists … they want to kill all the cows.”
“All of these predictions made by the United Nations and many others, often for bad reasons, were wrong. They were made by stupid people that have cost their country’s fortunes and given those same countries no chance for success. If you don’t get away from this green scam, your country is going to fail, and I’m really good at predicting things, you know.
“They actually said during the campaign they had a hat, the best selling hat. ‘Trump was right about everything.’ And I don’t say that in a braggadocious way, but it’s true. I’ve been right about everything. And I’m telling you that if you don’t get away from the green energy scam. Your country is going to fail.”
“The primary effect of these brutal green energy policies has not been to help the environment. But to redistribute manufacturing and industrial activity from developed countries that follow the insane rules that are put down to polluting countries that break the rules and are making a fortune.
European electricity bills are now four to five times more expensive than those in China.
And two to three times higher than the U.S.
All in the name of pretending to stop the global warming hoax.”
.@POTUS: In 1982, the executive director of the U.N. environmental program predicted that by the year 2000, climate change would cause a global catastrophe "irreversible as any nuclear holocaust"... these predictions were WRONG. They were made by stupid people that have cost… pic.twitter.com/rQ8h9huN6s

The Strait of Hormuz Crisis Shows the World Still Runs on Fossil Fuels
The Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most critical energy chokepoints, highlights the continued global dependence on oil and gas. Recent geopolitical tensions have disrupted energy flows, exposing vulnerabilities in global supply chains and triggering emergency responses across Asia. Despite decades of rhetoric about an energy transition, fossil fuels remain indispensable for modern economies, not only for energy but also for agriculture, plastics and pharmaceuticals. The crisis underscores that energy systems are shaped by geography and economics, and that a full transition away from hydrocarbons will be far slower and more complex than often assumed.
The EU’s Nuclear Phase-Out Was a Blunder
Following Friedrich Merz in January, Ursula von der Leyen has now also admitted that the phase-out of nuclear energy was a major ‘strategic mistake’, not only for Germany but for the EU as well. American researcher Roger Pielke Jr. uses some simple calculations to demonstrate the magnitude of the EU’s strategic blunder.
Paul Ehrlich (1932-2026): Farewell to the Long-Lived Failed Prophet of Miserablism – The Population Bomb author lived a long, wealthy, healthy life, an opportunity his work denied to countless others
Paul Ehrlich, author of The Population Bomb, became one of the most influential voices behind modern environmental pessimism. His warnings of inevitable resource depletion and societal collapse shaped decades of policy and public thinking. Yet, as history unfolded, many of his most prominent predictions failed to materialize—raising enduring questions about the consequences of alarmist narratives in science and policy.
