<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From CFACT<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Peter Murphy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

UN pharisees are brooking no dissent to its climate narrative<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Bel\u00e9m, Brazil<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wednesday afternoon at the COP30 Climate Summit, the United Nations declared war on free speech and scientific inquiry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through its Orwellian-sounding Global Initiative for Information Integrity on Climate Change<\/em>, the UN pushed back hard against \u201cclimate disinformation,\u201d which was the very purpose for establishing this UN Global Initiative in June 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specifically, the Initiative issued a \u201clandmark declaration<\/a>\u201d that \u201ccalls on governments, the private sector, civil society, academia and funders to take concrete action to counter the growing impact of disinformation, misinformation, denialism and deliberate attacks on environmental journalists, defenders, scientists and researchers that undermine climate action and threaten societal stability.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s a mouthful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our climate masters are getting antsy and cannot brook dissent or contrarians. \u201cQuestion authority\u201d is so \u2026 yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We at CFACT have never seen such a hysterical, ostentatious display in three decades of attending climate summits, as these masters of the planet attempt to quash dissent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The existential climate narrative has always been accompanied by tropes such as the \u201cscience is settled<\/a>\u201d and \u201cwe\u2019re past the time to \u2018debate\u2019<\/a> climate change.\u201d This climate summit in Brazil is raising to a much higher level its attempt to silence free speech and scientific challenges to its climate dogma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accompanying Wednesday\u2019s \u201cdeclaration,\u201d less than halfway through the conference, ten nations endorsed this attack on speech and science that refuses to accept the climate summit\u2019s embellished, shopworn narrative. They are Brazil, Canada, Chile, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Spain, Sweden, and Uruguay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shame on Canada and the European nations that purport to stand for democracy and freedom \u2014 until it challenges their political climate agenda \u2014 even as they welch on their financial commitments to \u201cfight\u201d climate change. That is, talk is cheap. These same nations, and many others expected to sign on, will never put their share of $300 billion in annual support of  UN climate funds to back up their \u201cdeclaration\u201d against dissent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the others thus far, Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay, glomming on to squashing opposition to their climate agenda is another crass way of exacting billions of dollars from wealthier nations to redistribute to their national treasuries to finance climate projects in the developing world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In genuine Orwellian fashion, this UN \u201cInformation Integrity\u201d outfit invokes \u201cinternational human rights law, including freedom of expression standards,\u201d even as it attempts to stifle those of us who refuse to play along with their climate dogma.  In other words, they define \u201cfreedom of expression\u201d as following the party line on climate \u2014 straight from the totalitarian playbook. History is replete with such examples of tyrannical doublespeak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wednesday\u2019s declaration also contains this gem of calling on governments to \u201cfoster cooperation and capacity-building to address threats to information integrity\u201d \u2014 meaning, nations must quell any challenge to the climate narrative and its control society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The COP30 Summit\u2019s urgency in announcing this attack on freedom, this threat to dissenters, includes this revealing nugget: \u201cresources [are] falling short of needs globally.\u201d This reference is about urging nations fund \u201cresearch climate information integrity,\u201d but I suspect the angst is way bigger; to wit, the wealthiest nation and the wealthiest private foundation are pulling back on funding the their climate agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From his inaugural speech in January, President Trump made clear he\u2019s defunding the \u201cGreen New Scam,\u201d as he described, and Congress followed suit in reducing subsidies and prior financial commitments to solar, wind, and other climate schemes when it passed its Budget Reconciliation law in July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Former Microsoft head, Bill Gates, last month renounced the \u201cexistential\u201d climate narrative and is redirecting his vast foundation\u2019s resources to other, more tangible and beneficial priorities in the developing world, such as fighting disease and poverty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rest assured, CFACT and its many organizational allies will continue to advance scientific facts about climate and counter the continuous hot-air hysterics from the UN bureaucracies and lemming nations. Their \u201clandmark declaration\u201d is pure posturing and will continue to be exposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our monthly Climate Fact Check<\/em> is but one of our many vehicles for advancing scientific truths and countering climate hysterics and groupthink. Our most recent Fact Check<\/a>, issued in October, revealed peer-reviewed research that demolished the bogus claim of an increased number of \u201cextremely hot days\u201d this year. It also debunked the false assertion of \u201cmore intense and erratic\u201d Indian summer monsoons, as such weather intensity has neither increased nor decreased since 1871, to cite two examples among other issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attempts by the UN and its litany of NGO suppliants, corporations cashing in, and nations parroting their climate declarations will not intimidate or deter CFACT and its allies from fighting back with research, facts, and science about the nature and impacts of an ever-changing climate on our long-lasting planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
