“Fact checkers” who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones

Suppose I told you that Santa Claus lived in Santa Barbara. Now suppose you reported in an article that I told you Santa Claus lived in Santa Barbara. Now suppose some “fact checker” slammed you for falsely saying Santa Claus lived in Santa Barbara. Would the “fact checker” be right? Obviously not. Because you accurately […]

How well do climate models simulate global temperature?

Earlier today I blogged on an article at Daily Caller about Dr. William Happer’s resignation from the National Security Council. I pointed out that climate models simulate much more warming than actually observed over the relevant period. Someone responded, “Complete and utter bull^*@%. The modeling is accurate.” Ignore the vulgarity’s telltale sign that this wasn’t

Daily Caller toes climate alarmist line on Happer resignation

The resignation of Dr. Will Happer, Emeritus Professor of Physics at Princeton and one of America’s finest physicists, from the National Security Council (NSC) is an important event. It is a sign of just how difficult it is to overcome the “deep state’s” stranglehold on government policy, despite the fact that President Donald Trump is

Time to Eat Uncle Jim to Protect the Climate?

How far will people go to fight climate change? You might have thought you’d seen the limits. Think again. Banning fossil fuels and prescribing “renewable energy” is so last century. Urging vegetarianism or veganism is so last decade. Pushing for population control is so last year. Embracing abortion is so yesterday. If you really want

Climate Warriors Ironically Caught in Arctic Sea Ice

Their aim was to capture film footage for use in a documentary about “climate change” (which, remember, is code for “dangerous to catastrophic manmade global warming). That was what 16 people identified as “Climate Change Warriors” were doing aboard the Arctic Tours ship MS Malmo when, on September 3, the ship got caught in Arctic

How You Can Help Bahamians Devastated by Dorian

When Hurricane Dorian ground to a halt over the Bahamas, it was immediately clear that the result would be widespread devastation. While, thank God, the death toll has remained comparatively low so far, the cost in terms of destroyed homes, businesses, and infrastructure is breathtaking. At times like this, Christians ask, “How can I help?”

Climate Alarmists in Denial about “97% Consensus”

Dana Nuccitelli, than whom it would be difficult to find a more strident or persistent advocate of global warming alarmism, is upset (as usual). Why? He is shocked—shocked!—to find that “Millions of times later, 97 percent climate consensus still faces denial.” Some people, despite having been castigated for it for over a decade, continue to

Fighting Malaria with DDT and Infertile Mosquitoes: You Can Help!

Dear Friends: What time is it? Take a look and see for sure. I’ll tell you later why. About a decade ago one of my sons, just turned nineteen, spent eight months assisting Christian missionaries in Ethiopia and Uganda. He saw how some of the world’s poorest people suffer—yet also how they can experience joy

Why Predictions of 187 Million Refugees from Sea-Level Rise Are Nonsense

Imagine that you live in a $450,000 home situated along a stream out in the country. With very heavy rains, the stream rises about three feet, but your home is two feet above that level. One day, though, upstream, a landslide changes the flow of another stream. It previously fed into your stream below your
