For too long, the conversation around energy policy in the United States has been dominated by a toxic brew of partisan rancor, media sensationalism, and international grandstanding. The far-left media are now driving a narrative that President Trump’s positions are an assault on reason itself. But the opposite is the truth.What we’re witnessing isn’t a denial of science or a retreat from reality. It’s a bold, pragmatic recalibration – one rooted in economic foresight, scientific clarity, and a … [Read more...]
Much Harm and No Good from EPA Greenhouse Rule: Kill It
Empowered to impose sweeping restrictions on GHG emissions from all manner of human activity, the EPA has been free to impose unreasonable demands on electric generation, transportation, manufacturing and agriculture – just to name more prominent targets. Under the Obama and Biden administrations, with CO2 emissions being the focus, fossil fuels in general and coal in particular were hammered by this regulatory cudgel.In the last decade, regulations have contributed to the closing of more than … [Read more...]
Underestimating Clouds: A Climate Mistake We Cannot Afford
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) has been predominantly portrayed as the chief culprit driving global warming. For decades, this misconception has guided international policies, prompted ambitious targets for reducing CO2 emissions and driven a shift from reliable and affordable energy resources like coal, oil, and natural gas toward problematic wind and solar sources.However, this theory overlooks important factors that influence Earth's climate system, including a critical variable in the climate system – … [Read more...]
Born to Redeem: How God’s Love Inspires Us to Build a Better World
The recent Christmas season illuminated homes and hearts worldwide, drawing us in to the manger in Bethlehem—a humbling yet radiant scene where divine love entered humanity through the birth of Jesus Christ. "For unto us a child is born," proclaimed Isaiah, speaking of a Savior who would bear the sins of humanity, redeem the broken, and restore the lost (Isaiah 9:6).Many of us see Christ’s coming largely, even entirely, as relevant to our individual personal destinies. But there is more—much … [Read more...]
Paper Exposes Pseudoscience Behind Methane War on Farmers
Methane emissions have become a focal point of the climate debate, triggering absurd agricultural regulations negatively affecting farming communities worldwide. Targets for abuse are ruminant animals, including cattle and sheep, that produce methane (CH4) through enteric fermentation – a natural digestive process that converts grass into protein-rich meat and milk for human consumption.Even farmers from my family in India are possible targets of anti-methane assaults on agriculture that have … [Read more...]
Public Abandons Doomsday Cult for Climate Realism and Practical Environmentalism
For years, climate activists like Al Gore and John Kerry have made bold, headline-grabbing predictions that have failed to materialize. Gore’s 2007 assertion that the Arctic would be ice-free by 2013 stands in stark contrast to reality: Arctic ice has not disappeared despite seasonal fluctuations, and Antarctica sea ice has rebounded from record low levels.Similarly, Kerry’s repeated warnings of impending catastrophe have lacked grounding in observable data. Teenage activist Greta Thunberg’s … [Read more...]
Trump’s Paris Pullout Liberates Third World, Saves U.S. Billions
Donald Trump's withdrawal of the United States from the Paris Agreement is both a geopolitical shift likely to have positive effects abroad and a monetary relief for American taxpayers.The pecuniary implications of Trump’s withdrawal are substantial: The United States has shouldered an outsized share of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change secretariat’s budget, contributing approximately 22% of its funding. For the 2024-2025 cycle alone, the secretariat’s operating costs are … [Read more...]
Faith in Perspective: Our Children, Climate, and the Future
We sit, privileged — sheltered by God’s grace from violence’s shadow. Yet beyond our safety, a world seethes with brutality. I was recently at an event organized by Beyond Barriers commemorating a sanctuary for childhood’s most wounded souls. As tales of near-lost lives unfolded, the room held its collective breath—each story a whisper of children hovering on survival’s fragile threshold, rescued from oblivion by compassion’s slender thread.Jesus, our Lord, places great emphasis on the … [Read more...]
Europe’s Energy Debacle Is a Warning for U.S.
Europe---light and dark. What happens if the grid fails for lack of sufficient generation?(Illustration by OpenAI.)When it comes to global energy policy, few narratives are as instructive – and as cautionary – as Europe's ill-fated experiment with wind and solar energy. The continent’s self-inflicted woes contain lessons that should be taken to heart by those formulating U.S. energy strategy for the incoming administration.Europe’s Misplaced Trust in Wind and SolarEurope's embrace of … [Read more...]
Your Cappuccino Is Safe Despite Climate Fearmongering
Coffee plantation in Quimbaya, Quimbio, Colombia. (Photo in public domain under Creative Commons.)A few hundred years ago, coffee was almost an unknown commodity with hardly a handful of countries consuming it at a commercial scale. But today, it is a sought-after drink that drives multiple companies to compete for the world’s best beans.An estimated 21 billion pounds of green coffee are produced annually across more than 25 million acres worldwide. U.S., Brazil, and Japan are the top … [Read more...]
