Marc Morano: “Great Reject: Triumphant Trump Dismantles the Climate Agenda” | Tom Nelson Pod #398

Marc Morano talks about his decades covering climate politics and his view that the climate movement is in rapid collapse due to overreach, public skepticism, and post-COVID distrust of “appeal to authority.” Morano contrasts Trump 1.0’s limited actions with Trump 2.0’s aggressive agenda: hundreds of pro-energy moves, exits from numerous UN bodies, a push to end the EPA CO2 endangerment finding, and a consensus-busting climate report later vacated over procedural issues. He says Democrats, media, Wall Street, and major figures like Bezos and Gates have gone quiet or shifted, while UN COP summits have become smaller and scandal-prone. He warns climate controls may reappear via public-health framing and future administrations.00:00 Marc Morano Returns00:36 Climate Movement Hits Low02:31 Trump 1.0 vs 2.0 Setup04:02 UN Climate Origins and Data Wars07:14 GOP Nominees and Climate Drift09:23 Trump 1.0 Wins and Limits11:27 Biden Reversal and Green Mandates14:57 Trump 2.0 Energy Blitz15:19 Consensus Report Court Setback16:58 Zeldin Targets Endangerment Finding18:55 Iran War and Energy Shock Risk20:00 Media Silence and Narrative Flip21:59 Great Reset and WEF Agenda27:22 Elites Pivot From Climate to AI28:13 COVID Blowback Fuels Skepticism33:42 Mainstream Admits Net Zero Failure40:25 UN Summits Implode at COP3044:28 Amazon Highway Coverup45:39 Burgers Not Bugs46:57 Toilet Paper Contraband49:06 Summit Results Reality Check51:40 Billionaires Media Flip56:11 Energy Boom Coal Security57:56 Climate Agenda Collapse01:00:19 Narrative Culture War01:02:46 Rio Treaty Withdrawal01:05:20 Endangerment Finding Repeal01:08:27 Climate Meets Public Health01:11:31 Next Scares New Summits01:18:43 COP Future And Coalition01:25:40 Closing Thanks And Wraphttps://x.com/ClimateDepotClimate ranked #35 of 39 American voter issues: https://x.com/davidshor/status/2033906948525928569=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1
