It Literally Never Stops: The Earth Is Being Absolutely Pummeled By Disaster After Disaster
So many disasters are happening so frequently that it is almost impossible to keep up with them all. Somehow, 2025 has become “the year of the flood” and “the year of the fire” simultaneously. 2025 is also the year of the largest earthquake that we have witnessed this decade.

86 Percent Of Americans Feel Stressed About The Cost Of Groceries, And Many People Are Starting To Really Flip Out Emotionally
Why are social media platforms filled with videos of Americans complaining about grocery prices right now? Needless to say, those videos must be striking a chord, because some of them are receiving millions of views. Government bureaucrats are telling us the cost of food is only going up a few percentage points per year, but we can all see that’s a load of nonsense. A trip to the grocery store has become an enormous expense, and this is especially true if you have kids to feed. As I wrote about earlier this month, one survey found that in 25% of U.S. households, at least one person is skipping meals so there will be enough money to pay the bills. Sadly, we’re warned that the cost of groceries will go even higher in the months ahead.

Carbon Footprint of Your Heart Surgery: When Climate Zealotry Invades the Operating Room
If anyone ever needed a perfect illustration of how climate obsession has infected even the most sacred realms of human life—medicine—look no further than this earnest study from the European Heart Journal proposing to weigh cardiac procedures not in terms of survival, outcomes, or cost-effectiveness, but by their “carbon footprint.” That’s right.
