CNN ushered in August yesterday with a boilerplate scare story about a heat wave spurring rapid melting from Greenland’s ice sheet. Like many such articles, Sheena McKenzie’s “Greenland is in the grips of a heatwave.

“Bombshell Claim: Scientists Find ‘Man-made Climate Change Doesn’t Exist in Practice’.” That was the headline on an article at ZeroHedge.com sent to me a few days ago by a friend.

For over a decade, evangelicals have been the most skeptical subset of the American population about claims of catastrophic, anthropogenic global warming (CAGW). Don’t count on their staying that way. Recently Physics World reported on an experiment conducted at three evangelical colleges to see how students’ views about global warming/climate change would shift if they

Three years ago, YaleEnvironment360, published by the reliably climate-alarmist Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, ran “Abrupt Sea Level Rise Looms As Increasingly Realistic Threat,” by Nicola Jones, a freelance journalist specializing in chemistry and oceanography.

Two years ago, evangelical environmental law professor John Murdock wrote in First Things that in 2012 former Evangelical Environmental Network head Jim Ball, author of Global Warming and the Risen Lord, “speaking at the World Wildlife Fund in D.C., [proclaimed] it a ‘fool’s errand’ to try to reach the right side of the evangelical spectrum”
