The climate alarmists can no longer hide behind outdated narratives. A recent survey lays bare what most Americans already know: the left-wing media and their environmental lobbies are out of touch with the heart and mind of the nation. After years of relentless doomsaying, it seems the American public is fed up with the climate hype and is demanding a pragmatic approach to energy policy.
Lee Zeldin, the Environmental Protection Agency Administrator, made headlines recently with an op-ed boldly declaring an end to the “Green New Deal.” He likened it to driving a dagger through climate-change dogma. This is a refreshing change from the constant drumbeat of fear-mongering about climate change. Zeldin’s message resonates across the country, especially as new data emerges showing that even influential figures in the climate movement, like billionaire Bill Gates, are pulling back their support for eco-centric initiatives. The push for drastic reductions in fossil fuel use is crumbling, and the folks behind the climate scare seem bewildered.
Almost half of the American people support increased domestic fossil fuel production. The survey findings reflect a nation that values energy affordability and reliability over climate alarmism. A staggering 70% see recent increases in fossil fuel production as a positive development. The American electorate is clearly yearning for a real “all of the above” energy strategy instead of a frail reliance on unstable wind and solar power.
The legacy media should pay heed to these sentiments instead of perpetuating the narrative of a people deeply concerned about climate change. Indeed, the most recent polls show a stark decline in the number of Americans who consider climate change a significant threat. Yet, major outlets continue to report extreme weather events as if they are linked to human-induced climate change, despite the public’s clear skepticism. It reveals a disconnect that is not only dangerous but irresponsible, as media channels risk losing more credibility with each misleading report.

The public is not as swayed by extreme weather claims as the media would like them to be. People go about their lives observing the climate around them, not the dramatizations on the screen. They recognize that natural variability plays a significant role in weather patterns. Activist groups like “Just Stop Oil” may engage in theatrical protests, but these stunts are perceived as insincere performances—more about attention than real solutions. As Americans grow increasingly aware of the ridiculous nature of these antics, their resolve against being manipulated and fear-mongered only strengthens.
In light of these developments, one must wonder: why do media outlets cling so stubbornly to a failing narrative? Is it an unwillingness to confront the truth that suits their agenda, or is it a deeper scheme to maintain control over public consciousness? One thing is clear: the narrative they push is growing more detached from reality while the American public moves on, firmly grounded in practicality over hysteria. The question remains—how long will it take for the media to wake up and join the rest of America in recognizing the pragmatic, America-first approach to energy and climate? Until they do, their credibility will continue to suffer, and the American people will keep moving forward, leaving the climate zealots behind.
