Bill Gates Does a 180
Has Bill Gates had a change of heart on climate change? In this episode of Created to Reign, Dr. David Legates explores the tech billionaire’s surprising “strategic pivot” — from alarmist rhetoric to emphasizing poverty reduction, innovation, and human welfare. Drawing on Gates’ own words and reactions from figures like Michael Mann and The Wall Street Journal, Dr. Legates asks: has Gates truly joined the ranks of climate realists, or is this just a softer shade of alarmism? Tune in for a thoughtful look at shifting narratives and what they mean for the future of the climate debate.Sources: https://www.gatesnotes.com/home/home-page-topic/reader/three-tough-truths-about-climatehttps://apnews.com/article/bill-gates-climate-change-united-nations-4108f76e746d1e3e13845f33b8ae7007https://thebulletin.org/2025/10/you-cant-reboot-the-planet-if-you-crash-it/https://www.wsj.com/opinion/bill-gates-climate-change-bjorn-lomborg-e3fe6d24Visit our podcast resource page: https://cornwallalliance.org/listen%20to%20our%20podcast%20created%20to%20reign/Our work is entirely supported by donations from people like you.

Is Climate Change Responsible for Hurricane Melissa?
When Hurricane Melissa tore through the Caribbean as a Category 5 storm, many rushed to blame its strength on manmade climate change. But is that claim supported by the data? In this episode of Created to Reign, Dr. E. Calvin Beisner, President of the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation, examines what history and science actually reveal about hurricanes and climate change. Join him as he challenges popular narratives, offers a Biblical perspective on God’s sovereignty over the weather, and reminds us that fear should never replace facts—or faith.Visit our podcast resource page: https://cornwallalliance.org/listen%20to%20our%20podcast%20created%20to%20reign/Our work is entirely supported by donations from people like you.

Explaining Trump's Climate Policy
A new report from the National Academies claims that greenhouse gases are “threatening human health” — but is that really the strongest evidence to date, or another case of politicized science?In this episode, Dr. David Legates examines the EPA’s 2009 Endangerment Finding, contrasts it with a more recent Department of Energy report, and explains why the so-called “climate consensus” is far less certain than we’ve been led to believe. He unpacks the data behind carbon dioxide, climate models, and extreme weather — and makes the case that adaptation, not fear-driven regulation, is the wiser path forward.Visit our podcast resource page: https://cornwallalliance.org/listen%20to%20our%20podcast%20created%20to%20reign/Our work is entirely supported by donations from people like you.
