Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s explosive comments are not surprising to anyone who has been closely observing the opposition of India and China to western pressure for adopting climate policies contrary to the two countries’ economic objectives.“The colonial mindset hasn’t gone,” said Modi at a Constitution Day event. “We are seeing from developed nations that the path that made them developed is being closed for developing nations… If we talk about absolute cumulative (carbon) … [Read more...]
India and China Set Aside Differences to Resist Carbon Imperialism
India and China have come together to resist the common enemy of carbon imperialism, despite a sour relationship fraught with a deadly border skirmish. At the COP26 climate meeting in Glasgow, leaders from the developed West were hellbent on imposing harsher measures to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide on developing nations. However, India and China, with the support of few other lower-to-middle-income countries like Iran, successfully resisted the pressure. … [Read more...]
The Facts: Reporters Exploit Normal Weather to Fan Climate Fear
Exaggeration of weather events to sell climate crisis is not something new. In the case of a Sky News’ account of flooding in one Indian city, my own observations — backed up by independent data — are contrary to the report. Chennai — my home state’s capital, formerly known as Madras — is prone to floods, whose severity I’ve personally witnessed. In fact, the last time Chennai flooded, I narrowly escaped by fleeing the city at … [Read more...]
India’s COP-26 promise of Net Zero by 2070 overshadowed by coal use
On COP26’s first day, India’s Prime Minister Modi announced that the world’s second largest coal consumer would become Net Zero by 2070 — a commitment that means almost nothing given realities of the subcontinent’s dependence on fossil fuels to meet the energy needs of 1.3 billion people.Though Modi’s efforts were praised by British PM Boris Johnson, the target of 2070 only reveals the country’s unwillingness to embrace any meaningful emission-reduction policy. Contrary to media reports, … [Read more...]
Consecutive cold years reveal climate lies of COP26
As world leaders meet this week at Glasgow for COP26, real-life data such as cold weather and increasing sea ice hints at the falseness of their faux climate crises.Residents of Delhi, for instance, are bracing for another cold winter after the country’s meteorological department forecasted below-normal temperatures for November. In fact, a string of exceptionally cold winters for the Indian capital have contradicted continual media predictions of unusual global warming—a dichotomy repeating … [Read more...]
COP26 at Odds With Leaders of Nearly 40 Percent of World’s People, Likely to Fail
India alone is a huge thorn in the sides of the Glasgow glitterati.COP26—the current global gala gathering of climate elite—appears headed for a grand failure as key countries making up nearly 40 percent of the world’s population either spurn the meeting outright or act on the realities of their own circumstances.India has demanded from developed countries $100 billion a year in aid to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide as well as compensation for “loss and damage” from climate change while … [Read more...]
Climate Change Contributes to Another Year of Record Crop Production in India
One of the largest agricultural countries in the world, India, expects its highest summer crop production for 2021–2022.This comes at a critical juncture when energy shortage crippled food production in China. The record numbers will play a critical role in maintaining global food security.The record harvest also challenges claims that climate change will reduce global crop production.For example, the Observer Research Foundation—an organization that is partnered by Apple, Bill Gates, Uber, … [Read more...]

‘They need to breed less’: the darkness of climate zealotry
In this age of green craze, the most likely response to legitimate concerns about the lack of access to energy for the world's poor is advocacy for so-called renewable technologies such as wind turbines and solar panels.As embarrassing as that suggestion should be to the advocates of such unreliable and impractical energy sources, there are sometimes even more cringe-worthy replies that verge on the inhumane. A recent tweet of mine prompted one such response.The tweet was directed to attendees … [Read more...]
Global Warming Alarmism Threatens Era of Energy Poverty
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s call for aggressive action against a so-called climate crisis at the United Nations presages similar statements that surely will be made by the dangerously misinformed in the coming months and augurs disastrous energy policy.Humanity has to “grow up” and tackle climate change, the prime minister told world leaders assembled in New York, predicting catastrophe if warnings are ignored.“We will see desertification, drought, crop failure, and mass … [Read more...]
