Last week, a group of scientists sent shock waves through the climate-science community. They boldly pointed out that current climate models exaggerate greenhouse warming. In other words, they confirmed what climate skeptics have been arguing all along: that most computer climate models forecast unrealistic warming — warming not observed anywhere in the real world. Could

As we saw in Part 2 of this brief history, the Interfaith Council for Environmental Stewardship didn’t work out as originally hoped. But that didn’t mean the Cornwall Declaration would lie dormant forever. David Rothbard and Craig Rucker, whom I introduced in Part 2, kept in touch with me over the next few years, encouraging

It’s official. Or, at least official enough for NPR to report it with zero reference to contrary data: “July Was The Hottest Month In Recorded Human History“! Now, I’ve never been quite sure why “recorded human history” should be such a prominent concern. What about before recorded human history? Historical climatology tells us there were

Every year like clockwork, starting in late July and running through to November, mainstream media around the world start hyping the message: your sinful use of fossil fuels to heat or cool your home, cook your food, power your car or truck, make and market and use your food, clothing, shelter, communications, transportation, health care,

That’s the gist of what Swiss climate scientist Sonia Seneviratne told CBC News about why she may refuse to participate in any future assessment reports from the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). It’s not that the reports don’t let her say what she wants to say. She’s been a lead author about extreme

This will not be the usual post you find on this blog dedicated to Biblical earth stewardship, economic development for the poor, and the gospel of Jesus Christ. It’s going to talk critically about sexual perversion. But by the end you’ll recognize why it’s appropriate for this venue. Annie Sprinkle is famous (or infamous) as

A Bloomberg News story today titled “Why Snow, Hail, and Wildfire Are Expensive for Insurance Industry” chalks up massive insurance losses this year to climate change. “Climate change is exacerbating extreme and freak weather events so rapidly that even the insurance industry is struggling to keep up,” the story says. “Late last week,” it continues, “reinsurance

The “Dixie fire” in northern California has consumed some 500,000 acres and over 400 structures, including most of the town of Greenville. More than 5,800 personnel are fighting the fire. Several other large fires are blazing in the region. Environmentalists, climate alarmists, and mainstream media predictably blamed climate change for them. But it’s likely they’re

The Cornwall Alliance, the roots of which we saw in Part 1, almost got its start in 2000, though with different name, constituency, and mission. That was when the short-lived Interfaith Council on Environmental Stewardship got its start. It grew out of a meeting of 25 Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Jewish theologians, economists, environmental scientists,

Dr. David Kreutzer, an economist formerly with the Heritage Foundation and now with the Institute for Energy Research, was Cornwall Alliance’s livestream guest July 27 to discuss why President Joe Biden’s “Net Zero by 2050” plan not only won’t succeed but can’t. (You can watch it on Facebook or YouTube.) When I announced this on
