In a recent eye-opening interview on Rush to Reason, host John Rush welcomed Steve Goreham, a renowned author and voice in the climate and energy dialogue. The conversation, brimming with revelations, brought insight into renewable energy, climate lockdowns, and overreaching government intervention.
Challenging Government Overreach
The conversation took off with a critical view of government policies. Goreham argued that these policies often lead to more control over individuals’ lives, stifling the free market’s ability to reward hard work. The duo underscored the abundance of energy resources available and how current economic policies squander those resources.
The Irony of Green Energy
A highlight of the interview was the discussion on the true nature of green energy. Goreham and Rush agreed that the term ‘green energy’ is misleading, suggesting that without oil, the foundation of green technology crumbles. The “green energy” term is an oxymoron, as oil is integral to producing wind turbines and solar panels, which, through propaganda, is labeled as ‘green.’
The Economic Impact of Environmental Policies
The dialogue delved into the economic implications of environmental regulations and how these regulations can hurt the environment. They discussed how these policies could lead to increased consumer costs because businesses will pass on the expenses of governmental regulations.
The Electric Vehicle Market’s Reality Check
The interview also cast a critical eye on the electric vehicle (EV) market. Goreham shared insights on the EV industry’s challenges, including the limited appeal beyond early adopters and the economic barriers to widespread adoption. He was also critical of the mining necessary to produce EVs.
A Rallying Cry for Free Market Solutions
Rush and Goreham’s conversation was more than a critique; it was a rallying cry for free-market solutions. They called for a shift away from government mandates, advocating for a system that leverages the world’s abundant energy resources more effectively.
Tune In for an Enlightening Perspective
This interview with Steve Goreham on Rush to Reason peeled back the layers of the green energy debate. They provided a thought-provoking perspective on government roles, economic impacts, and the realities of renewable energy. For a deeper dive into their insights and to understand the full scope of their arguments, the full interview is a must-listen. It’s an enlightening exploration for anyone interested in the future of energy and the dynamics of environmental policy.
The planet is improving, not in spite of increasing CO2 and rising temperature, but because of it. The very framework of the climate-catastrophe argument is being confronted with scientific facts.
“I talked earlier today about what’s coming out now, finally, as this overpopulation bomb and the fact that that’s been dispelled and the reality is that never came to fruition. And it was really one of the biggest lies foisted upon mankind. And what I said, Gregory, was climate change, global warming, whatever you want to call it, I believe down the road is going to be in the same situation.” ~ John Rush
“Oh, absolutely. And if we look at, I mean, I look at, I’m a geologist, so I look at the big picture and we’re being told, aren’t we, that “Oh, my God. We can’t let it get a degree and a half or two degrees warmer or there’s going to be famine.” Right? Nasty population. Everything imaginable is going to go wrong. Well as a geologist, Again, I look back. What’s happened over the last five or 6,000 years since the first-grade civilizations arose. What happened whenever temperatures got to those levels? Well, I’ll tell you what happened. Humanity and the Euros ecosystem thrived. Food was abundant with great abundance during periods that were warmer than today.” – Gregory Wrightstone
CLIMATE CHANGE ANALYST: Gregory Wrightstone, is a geologist and the Executive Director of the CO2 Coalition in Arlington Virginia. He is the bestselling author of the book “Inconvenient Facts: The Science That Al Gore Doesn’t Want You to Know.”
BIO: Gregory Wrightstone is a geologist with more than 35 years of studying the Earth’s processes. He earned a bachelor’s degree from Waynesburg University and a master’s from West Virginia University, both in the field of geology. He has presented the results of his research around the world, including India, Ireland, and China.
Gregory’s book was the result of a quest for the truth about climate change — a subject uncritically reported by the mainstream media of an Earth lurching inexorably toward climate apocalypse. Contrary to the hyperbole of climate alarmists, Wrightstone’s review of the science provides the historical context of the Earth that shows clearly that rising temperatures and increasing carbon dioxide are benefiting both the planet and the human condition.
“This is out of The American Spectator. But they pulled some things even out of The Wall Street Journal. And the reality is, I could really say this, probably in one sentence. It never happened, folks. There never was an overpopulation of the Earth.
In fact, we have now entered into a day and age where there is a lot of countries, including the likes of China, where they’re looking at their own population, saying, wait a minute. We don’t have enough young people running around to really meet the demand of what we as a country and economy need moving forward.” – John Rush

The greatest environmental demographic scare of the second half of the century, overpopulation is now officially conceded to have been a monumental fraud.

To appreciate what an embarrassing reversal this is for the Green movement. Consider that 40 to 50 years ago, nearly all the scientists, policymakers, Us government agencies, and experts at the UN told us that a rampaging population growth would lead to the doomsday with the world in our lifetime running out of food, energy, and nearly everything else.
Does this sound familiar, folks? Does this sound a lot like global warming, climate change, where you have, quote, Unquote, all of the experts, including the government and the UN, believing that if we don’t do something, that the existential threat right now, the largest crisis you’ve heard Joe Biden and his crony say this, the biggest threat we have in the world today is climate change. Does it not sound eerily familiar to overpopulation?

“The New York Times put the point even more emphatically in its coverage of this amazing twist of fate by acknowledging in a headline that the dreaded population bomb of the 1960s and ’70s has turned into a global population bust. Folks, the reason why I’m reading this to you is because these are things that I’ve talked about on this program now off and on for the past seven years.” ~ John Rush
