Latest / Conversations: Special Guests with Preston Scott / Climate Change Is Cause of Canadian FIres ... No Arson Is
Transcript
- 0:15Well, good morning, and welcome to a very fast moving Monday on the
- 0:21Morning Show with Thrust and Scott. I'm Preston. That's Grand Show four thousand,
- 0:26nine hundred and forty seven. It's great to be with you this morning.
- 0:32Good nat back on the show. A friend of the radio program.
- 0:36He is Greg Whitstone, a geologist by trade, author of Inconvenient Facts.
- 0:41You can learn more about the book and clean all kinds of information at the
- 0:45website Inconvenient Facts dot x y Z. He is Greg Whitstone. Good morning,
- 0:51sir, How are you oh, really really good? Thanks? Great
- 0:55to be back on this year. It's been a few months. Yes,
- 0:59but there's the story almost seems the same all the time, doesn't it.
- 1:03Yeah, it's it's either rampant factually incorrect informations. Disinformation is being spread now
- 1:12about the fires, and it's if it's not the fires today, it's it's
- 1:18sea level rise, flooding, hurricanes, tornadoes. They seem to just get
- 1:23it long. And that's what I'm here for, is to provide some of
- 1:26the facts about Canadian fires that likely. I know you're very well informed,
- 1:32but you're going to learn a few things as we go through this and if
- 1:37we can just jump right into it, if you like, yeah, you
- 1:40know, I mean, look, let's let's reset things. We've seen the
- 1:42pictures. It's almost apocalyptic, the views of Manhattan and the northeastern part of
- 1:49the United States. Wildfires allegedly are the cause, but not really. It's
- 1:55really climate change and global I always use global warming, greg because I don't
- 2:00want our listeners to forget that this was settled science. According to al Gore.
- 2:07Yeah, yeah, and it is. It is about global warming.
- 2:09They're they're saying, oh, we can't let the temperature rise one and a
- 2:15half degrees or you know, you know what's going to hit the fan and
- 2:21we're all going to die. Well, we've already had one degree of warming,
- 2:24Preston, and since that they're warning and said, what they're warning about
- 2:29is half a degree more of warming. That's nine tenths of a degree fahrenheit.
- 2:32Well, if it changed cooler or warmer where you are in your studio,
- 2:37you'd never know it the temperature, wouldn't your krmometers not set that load
- 2:40to catch it. And the fact of the matter is it changes more than
- 2:46what they're warming is warning us about. Between ten am and noon, almost
- 2:50every single day. It's just a ridiculous that this is all over nine tenths
- 2:57of one degree of fahrenheit. It's you shake your head when you hear it
- 3:01like that, You go, well, what, well before we get into
- 3:06the Canadian fires, And I want you to be able to set the record
- 3:08straight on some things. Factually, even the nine tenths of a degree greg
- 3:14I mean the information that I've been looking at. There a couple of things.
- 3:20One, Noah seems to indicate that since twenty sixteen or seventeen that temperatures
- 3:25have actually gone down in that time frame. But more importantly, ninety six
- 3:31percent of US climate data is corrupted by where they put the instrument reading.
- 3:36So do we really even have that? Well, it gets worse than that.
- 3:39In fact, I'm just finishing up my next book, and that's the
- 3:44section I'm working on right now. Approximately fifty percent of the stations are no
- 3:49longer operational. It's not that they're corrupted by this urban heat island effect.
- 3:53Fifty percent of the stations they actually just make up the data. They put
- 4:00the data in that they think it should be, not what it's measured.
- 4:04You didn't know that. People don't know that and also I took a look
- 4:09at the United States Historical Climatology Network data and I compared the raw data as
- 4:15received versus the adjusted data. I found a full three and a half degreased
- 4:20fahrenheit change. That they cooled the older temperatures and warmed the new temperatures.
- 4:27And what they did that was the that was for maximum temperatures across the United
- 4:30States. And what that did was turned what was a slight cooling over the
- 4:34last one hundred years into a steady increase of temperature. So they manipulate the
- 4:39data all the while cooling the old data warming the new data. What's that
- 4:45mean? It makes the new data and the modern warming look even worse than
- 4:48what It's not worse, it's actually very beneficial, but it makes it look
- 4:53look a lot warmer than it is. The Morning Show with Preston Scott used
- 4:58radio one hundred point seven WFLA. Inconvenient Backs is a number one Amazon bestseller
- 5:08on climate change information that the mainstream media has no interest in you knowing because
- 5:15it shreds the entire narrative, and that narrative is for one purpose, to
- 5:19control your life. Greg read Stone with US Geologists by Trade author as well.
- 5:25Okay, so Canada, what's going on and why is it impacting us?
- 5:31Let's start a number one. They're not forest fires, Okay, they
- 5:35aren't. The forest are not on fire. It's these are grass and fresh
- 5:40brush fires. They're sweet, they are they in the forest, yes,
- 5:45but it's grass and brush fires. You may not be aware, but the
- 5:47average number of acres burn in Canada's two and a half million hectares per year.
- 5:54This is going to be a bad year. It looks like there would
- 5:56be over four million. It's just but we had his historically low numbers of
- 6:00acres burned in twenty twenty and last year was near that historic low. So
- 6:05it rises in falls. Some years lots of fires, other years not so
- 6:11many. So the acreage burned this year is going to be higher and what
- 6:15we see, but this is a natural part of a healthy forest. In
- 6:20fact, if you go to Communian Forestry Service, the second paragraph states that
- 6:27they state, and this is right on the home page of their website,
- 6:30they state that fire is just as important to a healthy forest as is wat
- 6:35as our water and sunlight. Imagine that you've not heard that, and no
- 6:41one's talking about that. They need these forests need fire. And again they're
- 6:46not burning the trees. What they do is these conifers drop their cones and
- 6:51they need the fire to open those seat packs to create the new trees that
- 6:57will be coming up. So this is a natural process and it's like one
- 7:00of the biggest they use fire as a tool In Canada, one of the
- 7:04biggest fires, uh was a controlled burn in one of the national forests that
- 7:11got away from them. Uh. And so they use fire as a tool
- 7:15to have healthy forests. Uh. Well, that's been one of the that's
- 7:18been told Greg, that's been one of the complaints in California and why those
- 7:24wildfires become so destructive because they will not allow them to do the controlled burns
- 7:30to get the you know, the brush burnt down to protect the forestry.
- 7:35Right, if you look back at the photographs of the first photographs of the
- 7:40settlers coming in the eighteen hundreds, you'll find that what's totally forested now,
- 7:44we're mostly grasslands with big stands of timber, because those fires would would race
- 7:51through the grasslands and take them. Now and these are now we've got four
- 7:56and five times, maybe nine times too many trees per acre for what a
- 8:00healthy forest would have. The other thing they talk about, they're saying,
- 8:03I'm sure you've heard them, they say these fires are coming earlier than ever.
- 8:09This is a highly unusual event. You know that they don't have.
- 8:11Well, that's if you look at Alburna fires peak fire season and alb is
- 8:20Ay May is their peak fire season. June is the second largest month for
- 8:26all of Canada for fires. So these are coming, They're not coming early,
- 8:30they're coming right on schedule. The other thing is fastening. People don't
- 8:33know. Canadian fires are quite different from the fires in the Western United States,
- 8:37in California, Oregon and the rest western wildfires. I'm sure you know.
- 8:45We get spring rains and early summer grass and brush grows up and then
- 8:50it dries out in the late dry of the late summer and late August,
- 8:54September, early October the peak fire months in the Western United States. That's
- 8:58not so in Canada, and that's because they're quite different. That the snowpack.
- 9:05Most of Canadas just covered snow for months, and when that snowpack melts,
- 9:09it reveals all the dead grass and brush that have been under the snow
- 9:13for many months, and there's a there's a window of several weeks. Uh
- 9:18In Usually in Alberta it's May where this grass and brush dry out and that's
- 9:24when they have the big fires. And it's just it's just it's the grass
- 9:28and brush that that died, was covered by snow, exposed and dries to
- 9:31out. So they know, uh that this is the peak fire season,
- 9:37Darren, Alberta. Uh So it's quite different than than what we see in
- 9:41the western United States. The other thing we we we're just learning about are
- 9:46the huge number of arsons that were the artists. They've they've they've arrested some
- 9:52half a dozen arsonists. They're probably that we can count. We know there
- 9:56dozens wlam dot Com, your phone with the iHeart radio app, and on
- 10:01hundreds of devices like Alexa, Google Home, Xbox, and Sonos SENI Hearts
- 10:05Radio Station twenty one, almost twenty two minutes past the hour, final segment
- 10:15with Greg Whitstone, geologist, author of the book Inconvenient Facts, another book
- 10:20on the way. Greg, we were talking about the arsonist bunch of little
- 10:22Greta Thunberg's out there. What's the point though, what is the reason why
- 10:26anyone would want to intentionally set these fires? Let's say you're twenty two years
- 10:33old, you're a recent graduate of whatever named the university, and your major
- 10:37ended in studies. You know that there's a worthwhile degree, and you really
- 10:43believe that the Earth is in an existential threat from global warming. And if
- 10:48that's the case, then all everything's on the table. If we need to
- 10:54save the earth, and to save the earth, we need to get people
- 10:56aware that there's a true climate crisis. Well, let's go set some fires.
- 11:01Let's let's show them how bad it is. It's all and they haven't
- 11:05they been look at what's happened, look at the at the media coverage.
- 11:09It's just over the top. When this, this is what climate change looks
- 11:13like. This is it. And if you look at the satellite photographs back
- 11:18in Nay and the first when these first cropped up, the satellite, clear
- 11:22sky, not a cloud of this guy, All of a sudden, all
- 11:24these all these blooms of smoke start pomping up right and left. H the
- 11:30only natural way to for for this as a lightning strike. Well there was
- 11:33no lightning, so they were man made. And they've arrested more than a
- 11:37half dozen people for setting these fires. How many got away without without being
- 11:43caught. One guy did thirty nine set thirty nine fires, so we know
- 11:48there's been many dozens fires that were set um and said. What they want
- 11:54to do is create a climate of fear. That's how you get. You
- 11:56know, fear is a great motivator. Hunger, you're those are probably two
- 12:01greatest motivators to get to enact the policies. We historically, though, have
- 12:11always seen this, and in fact, it's really interesting because in a lot
- 12:15of the climate stuff, you hear words like we haven't had heat like this
- 12:18since and then they just kind of ignore all of the records that have long
- 12:24been existing. The same is true with this smoke stuff. You did some
- 12:28digging and found there's stories like this going back more than a century. In
- 12:33fact, just yesterday subsequent to me sending you some of this information. There's
- 12:39a book published in nineteen twelve on forest fires from the US Force Service,
- 12:43and the author of their graves he documents again, this is published in nineteen
- 12:50twelve, but he goes back. He's got twenty three what he calls dark
- 12:54days in the United States and Canada, going back to seventeen oh six,
- 12:58seven, sixteen, sixteen, seventeen, thirty two. I'm not going to
- 13:01go on and on, but these occur once in a while. They're not
- 13:07common, thankfully, but they're not unprecedented. And that's the word they usually
- 13:11use, is this is unprecedented. No, it's not. No side of
- 13:15the hall. One of the worst was seventeen eighty. It was called Black
- 13:20Friday or the Dark Day. That was maybe maybe some of the worst.
- 13:24People had to go around with candles to see their way it was so dark.
- 13:28Whoops, we lost him. He accidentally, I think might have hung
- 13:37up on us. I don't know, but we're we're about out of time.
- 13:43So anyway, we'll circle back and call him and say, I don't
- 13:48know what happened, but something happened and we lost you, Greg Gridestone.
- 13:52The book is inconvenient facts, the science that Al Gore doesn't want you to
- 13:58know. I had the book since he published it. He's been a guest
- 14:01since he published it, and I mean he literally has dug out. As
- 14:07far as the Canadian wildfires, these dark Days go back to seventeen oh six
- 14:16and at time of publication of this, up to nineteen ten. It happens,
- 14:22fires happen. In this case, it's intentional so you can't come to
- 14:30the conclusion that it's climate change that's responsible to begin with, let alone that
- 14:35it's an issue. But the left will never waste the opportunity to create one
- 14:41to fit the narrative. But the facts don't lie. As John Adams famously
- 14:46said, facts are stubborn things.
