(Apr. 16, 2026) — Of the hundreds of conferences I have attended in my career, the 16th International Conference on Climate Change (ICCC16) held on April 8 and 9 in Washington, DC stands out as one of the very best. The several dozen presentations were well researched, right on topic and delivered with the right combination of content, humor and showmanship.
Yes, showmanship, an important skill at any intense conference like this. Think Marc Morano, the keynote speaker at the closing dinner on the second day. Morano, publisher of CFACT’s Climate Depot and the author of the 2021 book Green Fraud, has the ability to capture an audience’s attention like no other. Just as he was starting to speak, I, and I noticed some others in the audience, were starting to show the impact of many hours of conference proceedings. But, then suddenly, it was half an hour later, Morano’s talk was over, and everyone had forgotten their tiredness. He began his speech by declaring, “We’re going to have some fun!” and indeed we did! Morano’s presentation was titled “The Great Reject: Triumphant Trump dismantles the Climate Agenda with Nary a Pushback” and is well worth watching by clicking here.
Besides Morano’s masterpiece, and kicking off the second day was an excellent keynote presentation from the effervescent head of The Heartland Institute’s UK office, Lois Perry. She gave a cautionary tale about what happens when a country, namely her nation, follows the woke climate agenda. Perry then pivoted to the recent developments in which she has been involved, particularly Heartland’s contribution to the rise of climate realist Reform UK leader Nigel Farage as a leading contender for prime minister.
