Imagine a new narrative of the Snow White story for our time. The original story was set in the Black Forest. Near the mountains, the Black Forest was Germany’s holiday playground. Imagine a new version set in the hill stations of northern India (my country). The hill stations are near the mighty Himalayas, India’s holiday playground. The original Snow White was shaped be fears of wicked witches. The new one would be shaped by fears of wicked humanity. How are they wicked? By burning … [Read more...]
Les Misérables of Climate Drama
In the world-famous drama based on Victor Hugo's novel Les Misérables, Jean Valjean is released on parole from the Bagne of Toulon after serving nineteen years for stealing a loaf of bread. Yes, for stealing a loaf of bread! A jail term of 19 years seems like an excessive punishment for a piece of bread. It does invoke anger and sadness in many as they first see the play. But what about real-world situations that are more miserable? Imagine if whole countries are branded as evil and … [Read more...]
Adapt, Change, or Just Swim! Why Fish Will Not Face Climate Apocalypse
It is said the modern man-made climate change impacts ocean life, more specifically the life of marine fishes. It is said that some species could become extinct or vulnerable in the near future. However, are these claims true, and what does the available empirical evidence suggest? During my three years as a graduate student at the University of British Columbia’s Changing Oceans Research Institute (CORU), after earning my M.Sc. in environmental sciences, I had the opportunity to study the … [Read more...]
Climate Change’s #MeToo Movement: The Dark Secrets of Climate Saviors
The #MeToo movement this year exposed the dark secrets of Hollywood and many other global organizations. But the #MeToo movement within one fraternity has been suppressed and underreported by the leftist media. And that is the Climate Change fraternity encompassing the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and their climate change conferences that host a wide network of collaborators, including climate scientists … [Read more...]
Why Christianity Is the World’s Most Eco-friendly Philosophy
Environmental problems have become part of our everyday lives. There isn’t a news website homepage that does not highlight news related to our environment, and environmental issues have become central themes of major elections. But we have reached a point where we no longer understand the role of man in the environment around us. What brought us here? Humans and the environment are inseparable.

The Climate-Change Derangement Syndrome: Undermining Science and Demonizing Skeptics
Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is fairly popular. Even people in far eastern countries like India and Australia know about it. But little do we hear about Climate-Change Derangement Syndrome (CCDS) and another new syndrome emerging from it. CCDS is a behavioral pattern in which a section of our society responds irrationally to any trend in global temperatures that contradicts its narrative of a dangerous rise in global temperatures, without regard to the actual data. For example, … [Read more...]
Living by the Flood Waters: Life, Death, and Hope in the Midst of Chaos
This month, the Indian state of Kerala received massive rainfall. The subsequent floods displaced 1.3 million people. The experience has left many, including me, shaken yet hopeful. India’s southernmost state, Kerala is famous for its monsoon rains. Rain-bearing clouds from the Indian and Arabian oceans ravage the land every year. They make it a lush, green, tropical paradise. The entire state is separated from its neighboring state by the famous Western Ghats mountain range. These … [Read more...]
Churches’ Assistance Following South India Floods Continues a Long Tradition
Responses to the floods in the southern India state of Kerala that began August 8 and continued for nearly a week reminded many here of the indispensable role the church played in the development of India. Kerala is prone to massive rainfall every year, so initially the intense rainfall raised no alarms. However, within 48 hours, the rains filled all the major dams in the state, and the government declared emergency. Excess water from the dams caused a deluge, making 2 million people … [Read more...]
The Dawn of Climate Realism: Coal Surges Amid Climate Rhetoric
Many countries have been at the crisscross of warfare between anti-coal establishments and the traditional coal industry. Despite the elite-empowered and politically motivated worldwide campaign to phase out coal, demand for coal is on the rise! Coal has been “enemy No. 1” for the climate establishment. In fact, it would seem that the entire global warming movement is hinged upon the singular aim to eliminate coal from use. Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming (CAGW) is a notion that … [Read more...]
