By /

This isn’t science. This isn’t even rational discourse. This is thuggery—typical of communist movements from the French Revolution through the socialist revolutions of the 1840s and the Russian and Chinese revolutions. Not sure? Read the press release from the “Peoples Climate Movement” for yourself: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Monday, May 8, 2017 Contact: Harrison Beck: [email protected] or (617) […]

President Trump’s “Executive Order on Energy Independence” will save the American people hundreds of billions of dollars every year that would have been wasted on purely symbolic efforts under former President Obama’s “Clean Power Plan” and other regulations.

Nobel physicist Ivar Giaever’s classic lecture on global warming

By /

To answer a question sent to the Cornwall Alliance, I re-watched, today, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Dr. Ivar Giaever’s outstanding lecture debunking the idea that carbon dioxide is driving unprecedented global warming and was reminded just how brilliant it is.
