Senator Whitehouse, Your New Wardrobe Is Ready

One of the things I most appreciate about Joe Bastardi’s book The Climate Chronicles: Inconvenient Revelations You Won’t Hear from Al Gore—And Others is the long historical perspective he brings. Again and again he quotes alarmists about manmade global warming claiming that this or that event, or this or that series of events, or this or […]

Why You MUST Read Joe Bastardi’s The Climate Chronicles

The 38th through 41st chapters of the Book of Job are among the most majestic, awe-inspiring passages in all literature, inside and outside the Bible. I cannot read them and not feel small, humbled by the omnipresence, omnipotence, and omniscience of God. They record questions God hurls rapid-fire, “out of the whirlwind,” at Job to

How Are Polar Bear Extinction Fears Like Global Warming Fears?

By now the message is old hat to everybody, but in case you’ve forgotten, here’s how Greenpeace puts it: “polar bears could completely disappear from the Arctic in the next 100 years if we don’t take action soon.” Ah, right. Except that it’s dead wrong. The chief reason? Just as is the case with fears

What Do You Get When You Mix Socialism with Pursuit of Profits from Renewable Energy?

The latest from the climate alarmism’s anti-capitalism department: Christiana Figueres, former Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (parent of the 2015 Paris climate agreement) and now a leader in “Mission 2020,” an international cooperative effort to get global carbon dioxide emissions on a downward trend by 2020, is upset with

Has Scott Pruitt Brought Armageddon to the EPA?

According to two former Administrators, current federal Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt has set the agency back by anything from several years to as much as three decades due to “regulatory rollbacks, mass attrition and budget cuts.” That sounds ominous. It isn’t. At present EPA is operating under FY2017 funding levels. While projected FY2018

Protect Endangered Species on Valentine’s Day?

Valentine’s Day. A day for lovers. But according to the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD), it could be a very bad day for biodiversity. That’s because, so goes the argument, what lovers (heterosexual lovers, anyway) do—not just on Valentine’s Day but all year long—threatens to increase human population. And, as everyone knows, growing human population

A Christian Perspective on Biodiversity: Anthropocentric, Biocentric, and Theocentric Approaches to Bio-Stewardship

Maintaining Biodiversity: A Generally Good End Whatever our assumptions, I think all of us here would agree that, in general, maintain­ing biodiversity is a good end. None of us would favor the willy-nilly elimination of species, subspecies, varieties, or even distinct populations of varieties of life. Yet I say that maintaining biodiversity is a good

Are “Fixer Upper” Stars Wrecking the Earth with their Children?

You’d have thought congratulations were in order when HGTV’s Chip and Joanna Gaines, of Fixer Upper, announced they’re expecting their fifth child. Some congratulations did come, but so did some nasty criticism. The gist: With four, they have too many already. The world’s overpopulated, and it’s selfish of them to add more children. US Magazine
