Activists criticize the media for ignoring the role of climate change in coverage of Hurricane Matthew. One political candidate proposes a plan for a 100% clean electric grid by 2050, citing Iowa's wind energy as a model. The segment includes a claim that climate change denial should be treated as a "mental illness," referencing Senator James Inhofe's use of a snowball on the Senate floor as an example of irrational behavior.

A five-year-old clip of climate activist Bill McKibben features predictions about irreversible ice sheet melt and rising ocean acidity. McKibben argued that 2014 was the hottest year on record and that environmental damage was outpacing scientific forecasts. The hosts use the clip to contrast past climate alarmism with current "Build Back Better" economic policies.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reported that global CO2 levels averaged 400 parts per million for an entire month. This milestone challenges the branding of environmental groups like 350.org, which identified 350 ppm as the safe limit for the planet. A local producer noted that indoor CO2 levels in his home reached 750 ppm without adverse health effects.

The media coverage of Hurricane Matthew is criticized for focusing on climate change and global warming rather than meteorological facts. The hosts play clips from "Democracy Now!" and discuss how activists like Bill McKibben use extreme weather events to push the Paris Agreement. They argue that the computer models used to predict the storm's path were largely inaccurate.

Bill McKibben and 350.org announce that global divestment commitments have reached $3.4 trillion. The hosts provide a counter-analysis, suggesting that divestment campaigns actually benefit major investors by suppressing stock prices and effectively doubling dividend yields. They mock the description of the oil industry as a "rogue industry," noting its essential role in pharmaceuticals and plastics.

The hosts play clips of author Naomi Klein and the Director of the OMB discussing the "carbon bubble" and the financial cost of "climate denial." They mock the "climate math" provided by Carbon Tracker, which claims the world has a strict carbon budget to keep warming under 2 degrees Celsius. The OMB director's statement that climate denial is "fiscally foolish" is labeled a "sackable offense" by the hosts.
