NYC Mayor de Blasio Announces "Scaled Back" New Year's Eve Times Square Celebration
NEW YORK - Mayor de Blasio today announced details for a 'scaled back' Times Square New Year's Eve, with additional protections in place to ensure a safe celebration. In addition to requiring proof of full vaccination with valid photo identification and being fully outdoors, attendees will also be required to wear masks. Viewing areas will be filled with fewer people to allow for social distancing.
Made in consultation with health and medical experts, these additional safety measures will keep revelers safe and healthy as they ring in the New Year. The City, in partnership with Times Square Alliance will continue to monitor the situation and take additional precautions and measures in the coming days if needed.
"New Yorkers have stepped up tremendously over the past year-we are leading the way on vaccinations, we have reopened safely, and every day we work toward building a recovery for all of us," said Mayor Bill de Blasio. "There is a lot to celebrate and these additional safety measures will keep the fully vaccinated crowd safe and healthy as we ring in the New Year."
"New York is the best place in the world to celebrate New Year's Eve and now it will be one of the safest against COVID as well," said Mayor-elect Eric Adams. "The Mayor has made the right move to take precautionary measures as we learn to live with COVID and fight the Omicron variant-and New Yorkers and visitors alike can now enjoy Times Square and the rest of our city as we ring in 2022."
"This year's holiday season may not be the one we had hoped for, but we can still have a happy holiday season," said Health Commissioner Dr. Dave A. Chokshi. "All New Yorkers should get vaccinated and boosted as soon as possible. Wear a quality face mask and stay home if you're feeling sick, no matter how mild your sympToms."
"We applaud the leadership of Mayor de Blasio in finding a way to welcome revelers into Times Square on New Year's Eve in an even safer way than we originally planned," said Tom Harris, President of the Times Square Alliance. "This year revelers will be fully vaccinated, masked, and we will have reduced occupancy in the viewing areas. We understand that everyone will not be able to be here but welcome them to experience New Year's Eve in Times Square from our live webcast, on one of the networks or on the VNYE app."

The whole 97% climate consensus is pure BS.
———————————————-
The 97% "Consensus" is only 75 Self-Selected Climatologists
Sunday, August 1, 2010
[Warmistas claim that] while 97% of "climate scientists think that global warming is 'significantly' due to human activity," a shocking 72% of news coverage does not reflect this "consensus" and similarly 74% of the public are not convinced.
However, close examination of the source of the claimed 97% consensus reveals that it comes from a non-peer reviewed article describing an online poll in which a total of only 79 climate scientists chose to participate. Of the 79 self-selected climate scientists, 75 agreed with the notion of AGW. Thus, we find climate scientists once again using dubious statistical techniques to deceive the public that there is a 97% scientific consensus on man-made global warming; fortunately they clearly aren't buying it.

The commentary below is based on these two documents:
The Anderegg paper (described below):

Climate scientists' "consensus" based on a myth
Blog, Commentary, Tom Harris/November 6, 2012
Doran/Zimmerman global warming poll a tragic example of research gone wrong
It's a "fact" asserted by political leaders, media and activists worldwide. Important public policy and corporate decisions are based on it. Researchers and public opinion survey coordinators take it as a given. School children and college and university students are assured it is true.
It is the idea that scientists agree that we are causing climate catastrophe. It is perhaps best summed up by the following statement, one heard often over the past three years:
"97% of climate experts agree that humanity is causing dangerous global warming and other problematic climate change because of our greenhouse gas emissions."
No poll of experts has actually shown this. There has never been a reputable worldwide survey of climate scientists that has even asked the question. In fact, it has never even been demonstrated that there is any "global scientific consensus about the climate crisis", as Al Gore continually assures us that there is.
This is simply one more of the many urban legends that permeate the climate debate, myths that are costing societies across the world billions of dollars every year.
Two pieces of evidence are most often cited to support the 97%/consensus argument:
1. A 2010 paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States (PNAS) by Anderegg et al.
2. A poll conducted in April 2008 by Professor Peter Doran and then-graduate student Margaret R. K. Zimmerman at University of Illinois at Chicago. The survey results were summarized in a paper published in January 2009 in the science journal EOS.
Contrary to popular belief, the Anderegg et al study did not poll any experts at all. Instead, the paper's authors merely evaluated the publication record of scientists they chose to represent two sides in the global warming debate. This study has been roundly condemned as worse than useless by several authors and, because I was personally involved in assembling some of the lists of experts cited by the researchers and so understand the limitations of those lists, I will explain in a future FCPP blog posting why the Anderegg et al study is not a meaningful indicator of expert opinion about this topic.
The Doran/Zimmerman study, which did poll experts, has also been thoroughly debunked by many writers and so there is little point in repeating their criticisms in this blog posting. However, there are two problems with the study that have received little or no coverage to date. Both of these problems destroy the poll's credibility as a reliable measure of the stance of climate scientists on the supposed climate crisis.

Q Research AUSTRALIA #11 - THE SILENT WAR CONTINUES Edition
>>12018237
3/3
In a fax sent from London shortly before his trip, a royal aide states only that 'His Royal Highness will return to New York on the evening of 11th April after his visit to Boston. He will spend that evening at a private address in New York and will depart for Miami the following day'.
That 'private address' was 9, East 71st Street, sources close to the Duke have conceded. Epstein's mansion. They say that HRH and Policeman A were alone there, apart from domestic staff. They insist that Epstein, Maxwell and Roberts had already left the city before the Duke arrived.
The Mail understands that Policeman A has confirmed this account and added that he stayed in his 'usual' guest bedroom on the fourth floor - an intriguing phrase in itself - with the Duke in a room nearby. (It is worth recalling that the Duke has admitted staying with Epstein in New York in 2010, the final time they met).
David Rodgers' pilot log also suggests that Flight 1490 left Teterboro Airport for St Thomas in the American Virgin Islands, the nearest landing ground to Epstein's private island, on April 11.
On board were Epstein, Maxwell, Banu, Virginia Roberts and Ms Sjoberg. The logbook does not say when the flight left New York.
RIDDLE OF THE MISSING MEMORIES
So are there other witnesses who can testify to the Duke's whereabouts? The Mail has learned Captain Dilworth sent a polite letter to Bill Phillips, head of Outward Bound International, dated April 30, 2001, thanking him for his hospitality.
Mr Phillips died two years ago. But approached by the Mail this week his widow Barbara had no recollection of him mentioning any such royal visit: 'I would have known if he had dined at The Mark, let alone with an English prince. He would have delighted in telling me as we regularly discussed his work and Outward Bound.
'He met a lot of famous people and there are lots of photos of him with those people. But none with the Prince.'
While there is pictorial proof that the Prince attended Outward Bound events in Boston, Richard Stopol, who is the current CEO of Outward Bound New York and was due to have hosted the Duke in the city on that second morning, equally said he couldn't remember Andrew visiting at Easter 2001.
'Neither I nor any other NYC Outward Bound Schools staff met with Prince Andrew or were even aware that he was visiting New York City,' he said.
He then checked with the man who was principal of The School for the Physical City in 2001.
Mr Stopol reported: 'He's a friend and we speak regularly and I was intrigued. I thought it was my memory which was failing, but he doesn't recall this visit either.'
More bizarrely still, Tom Harris, UK Consul General in 2001, can't recall a visit by the Duke that Easter. Nor could two of his three deputy consuls. Louise Redmond, the New York Consulate General's visits officer, is still in post.
It was almost 20 years ago. Memories are hazy. Though not as hazy as the Duke's has been.
The Mail asked representatives of Andrew a series of questions about the allegations made by Miss Roberts. A spokesman for the Duke said: 'It would not be appropriate to comment on any of these matters.'
However, the Mail understands that the Duke now recalls he stayed at the Epstein mansion that third night to 'save taxpayers' money' - rather than stay at a hotel, while on his way to join the Duchess and their two daughters for a family holiday in the Bahamas.
The several hundreds of pounds 'saved' pales in comparison to the hundreds of thousands so far paid in legal and consultancy fees and the reputational catastrophe to him and the Royal Family that his relationship with Epstein has caused.

Q Research Canada #45: Parental Concerns Mount Edition
Your City Council Has Been Bought Off
https://ironwillreport.com/your-city-council-has-been-bought-off/
A few months ago I interviewed Tom Harris, a former climate alarmist turned whistle blower on the real facts behind climate change. And the fact is that manmade global warming simply is not happening.
Climate alarmism is part of the globalist agenda. A means to terrify ordinary people into complying with draconian restrictions on their rights and freedoms.
Recently a viewer sent me a link to a video, a short presentation made by a resident of the city of Peterborough to the city council. That video is proof that you don't have to be a scientist to understand the real science and to speak out in defense of our rights.
Maggie Braun, like Tom Harris, used to believe the climate change narrative. She studied ecosystem management with hopes to work for the U.N. in finding solutions to the climate crisis. But then she started asking questions and doing more research. It wasn't long before the lie was revealed.
A lie that is being used to undermine our sovereignty and hand control of our lives over to the globalist agenda. Not just nationally or provincially, but right down to the level of our local city councils.
Another fact that Maggie discovered is that most of our cities are now in fact private corporations. Corporations which receive substantial funding from globalist organizations to buy compliance with their agenda.

How long until Conservative Party leadership candidates flip-flop on climate policy?
https://www.rebelnews.com/how_long_until_conservative_party_leadership_candidates_flip_flop_on_climate_policy
Tom Harris from the International Climate Science Coalition Canada joined Sheila to talk about the ongoing Conservative Party leadership race from the perspective of climate policy.
Climate policies don't reduce carbon emissions. They reduce your family's disposable income.
And these policies come in a number of ways. Clean fuel standards, carbon taxes, emissions caps and large emitter levies are added to the cost of everything all along the supply chain.
On the latest episode of The Gunn Show, Tom Harris from the International Climate Science Coalition Canada joined Sheila to talk about the ongoing Conservative Party leadership race from the perspective of climate policy.
Tom has done a pile of research about the current climate policies on the five front runners - Charest, Lewis, Baber, Brown and Poilievre - in the race to be the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada. Tom has also done some historical research about how and when the inevitable flip-flop on climate policy happens. Many Conservatives start off so strong, then fold and quiver the moment someone from the mainstream media calls them a climate denier for saying something as mainstream and sensical as "taxes don't change the weather."

Debunking the climate hysteria from the United Nations with Tom Harris
https://www.rebelnews.com/debunking_the_climate_hysteria_from_the_united_nations_with_Tom_Harris
Tom Harris of the International Climate Science Coalition joins The Gunn Show to debunk the alarmism emanating from the United Nations Climate Conference.
The United Nations climate alarmism/virtue signalling event just wrapped up. Yet again, world leaders gathered to espouse doom and gloom unless we heed their calls and cede to their demands.
Tom Harris of the International Climate Science Coalition Canada joined Sheila Gunn Reid on last week's episode of The Gunn Show to reflect upon the many lofty, overly-ambitious (and unnecessary) goals world leaders agreed to.
Speaking of coal productions increasing in some parts of the world, Tom told Sheila:
There's actually a funny joke that's going around the UN Climate Conference - I was told this by people at the conference. They're saying that some of these commitments, like India's net-zero by 2070, it's like a 75-year-old alcoholic saying I'm going to quit drinking in the next 30 years… Which is what India is essentially saying.
They're going to be net-zero by 2070.
Oh, but in the meantime, we're going to massively expand our coal usage. Which, of course, makes sense because their first and overriding priority is poverty alleviation and keeping their people fed.
So, I mean, coal is a magnificent product and if you burn it cleanly, it's absolutely fine. You know, there's no reason for them to be cutting back on coal in Canada, I mean Canada has about the cleanest coal stations you can imagine.

On Wednesday's episode of The Gunn Show, Sheila Gunn Reid talks to Tom Harris from the International Climate Science Coalition.
They discussed how the mainstream media and politicians are getting the wildfires in Canada and around the world so wrong, and how Ottawa might be bringing in the most expensive climate plan in North America.
On the climate temperature rising in Ottawa Tom said:
We're finding some pretty amazing things. I mean if you actually look at the amount of money that they're spending, they will have to increase the city's annual budget by 37 percent just to cover their climate plan…Unless they get really significant help from senoir levels of government which are all broke right now.

Canadian postmodernism and bad green policies
https://8kun.top/qresearch/res/13947299.html#q13974894
The Gunn Show is normally only available to RebelNews+ subscribers. This special free release has been brought to you by Resistance Coffee Company.
Municipal politics are a big green virtue signalling mess. It's a coast to coast to coast problem here in Canada.
The City of Edmonton is building acres of toxic solar panels in the North Saskatchewan River Valley to power one water treatment plant for a couple hours each day, while some of the cleanest burning coal on the face of the Earth sits just west of the city - underutilized, unloved and abandoned.
The City of Ottawa has a $60-billion climate change plan, and local politicians just dedicated $1 billion to buy and run electric buses, with complete and total disregard to the unreliability of electric vehicles in Canada's northern climate.
The natural question is why is any of this happening? Why are not just Canadian cities, but cities around the world pursuing expensive green goals that really have no measurable impact on global greenhouse gas emissions?
Sheila Gunn Reid is joined by an avid watcher of bad green policies and bad green politicians, someone who has a few theories about applied post-modernism and how this new-age soft social science has overtaken the application of real hard science.
This is an interview Sheila Gunn Reid recorded earlier this week with Tom Harris of the International Climate Science Coalition.
