A year ago, no one could have predicted the emergence of a coal alliance. Not when the leader of the most powerful country—President Obama—was crusading against coal. One year later, the coal alliance has arrived! During his presidential run, Donald Trump pledged that the US would pull out of the Paris Agreement—the poster child agreement of the climate alarmists who advocate for the shutdown of coal plants. Trump also indicated that he would bring major reforms in national policies … [Read more...]
The Uninhabited Mind of David Wallace-Wells
David Wallace-Wells shook up a lot of people with a "horrifying 2017 essay in New York magazine about climate change. It was an attempt to paint a very real picture of our not-too-distant future, a future filled with famines, political chaos, economic collapse, fierce resource competition, and a sun that 'cooks us.'" Now he's got a book out that builds on that article, The Uninhabitable Earth: Life after Warming, which Vox describes as "a brutal read," "more terrifying" than the "terrifying … [Read more...]
Climate Reality Forces Doomsday Alarmists to Restructure Warming Narrative
Whichever news media you subscribe to, you cannot miss the news about climate change. While climate alarmists claim that we are perilously close to doomsday, reality says otherwise. Climate alarmists are desperate to redefine climate change after the severe winters of 2017–2018 and 2018–2019. Let’s look at three of their most appalling attempts to conceal their errors. Global Warming to Climate Change Not very long ago, the alarmists’ buzzword was “global warming.” The term … [Read more...]
Sushi, Sake, and Coal: Japan’s Peculiar Response to the Climate Conundrum
We all know that the Japanese love their sushi. Japan is also famous for sake, a rice wine unique to the country. Lately, the Japanese have shown unrestrained love for a commodity that is increasingly demonized by climate groups: coal. Global warming alarmists blame coal for causing dangerous global warming. But the Japanese beg to differ. They have revived their love affair with coal. Why? That’s an interesting story. Soon after the Fukushima nuclear incident, public sentiment towards … [Read more...]
Changing Policies and Changing Climate: Will 2019 See the Demise of the Paris Agreement?
As the New Year begins, so does a new optimism. The world can look back at 2018 and be thankful for the few brave nations that stood up against the controversial Paris climate agreement, preventing the world from sliding further into an energy abyss. The agreement, since its inception in 2015, threatened to stall the global energy sector. But various events—both political and natural—during the last two years have weakened it. Here is a look back at some of the events in 2018 that exposed the … [Read more...]
Illegal Aliens, Socialist Democrats & Cloward-Piven
The next time you see thousands of illegal aliens massing at the border demanding to be allowed to enter, or marchers demanding more of your tax dollars to pay for their wants and needs or politicians insisting you owe it to others to pay for their necessities in life, remember these two words: Cloward Piven. So much of what the Left (and progressives and Marxists and wannabe socialists) seek to accomplish isn’t intended to improve conditions. It’s intended to destroy. Many of them don’t know … [Read more...]
Socialist “Green New Deal” Laughably Ridiculous
We’re told global warming gives us only 5, 10, 12 more years (depending on the doomsayer) before the planet is irretrievably doomed. “Therefore, act now!” alarmists demand. Of course, they’ve been saying the same thing for 10, 20, 25 years. It’s become impossible to spoof these people… Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s socialist Green Deal is so laughably ridiculous even the leftist leadership of her own Democratic Party is running from it. Amid the backlash, she's apparently removed … [Read more...]
The Real Climate-Change Deniers: Exposing a Mainstream Myth
Lately, more focus has been on “climate-change deniers” than on the science of climate change. They are called science-denying, narrow-minded and selfish. They face ridicule every day. For example, in “The Depravity of Climate-Change Denial,” economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman argued that climate-change denial risks civilization for profit, ideology and ego. But who are the real “climate-change deniers”? (Or “climate deniers”? He uses the terms interchangeably.) Krugman … [Read more...]
Shame on Scientific American and E&E News for Lying about John Christy
Scientific American, apparently following the lead of E&E News, headlined its report of Dr. John Christy's appointment to the federal Environmental Protection Agency "Scientist Who Rejects Warming Is Named to EPA Advisory Board." The truth---which E&E News and SA undoubtedly know, is that John Christy most certainly doesn't "reject warming." He manages the NASA satellite data that are our best source for truly global, all-latitudes, all-longitudes, all-altitudes atmospheric … [Read more...]
Arctic Air Freezes United States: Global Cooling or Global Warming?
America’s Midwest is freezing. Mainstream media outlets had no option but to inform readers of the heavy snow and dangerous low temperatures. Scientific American called the current cooling “life-threatening.” CNN reported the “Coldest air in a generation.” Those headlines were not hype. Yesterday, nearly 40 percent of Americans woke up to wind chill warnings or advisories. Over the next few days, 72 percent of the continental US population will experience below freezing … [Read more...]
