Has the climate propaganda reached a point where radical climatism is leading us into dangerous negligence? The severe winter in the northern hemisphere has been widely recorded. However, key climate information providers have altered data. The result — intended or not — has been to make the recent record lows of the winter appear normal. November 2017 marked the onset of a very cold winter across the Northern Hemisphere. Many parts of North America and Eurasia registered record lows, … [Read more...]
Because Joe Bastardi Says It So Well
Joe Bastardi's The Climate Chronicles: Inconvenient Revelations You Won't Hear from Al Gore---And Others is simply a delightfully fun book to read. It's also well reasoned. Here's an example of clarity and cogency: ... in the weaponization of weather, there are three factors that enable this tactic [of blaming all new weather extremes on anthropogenic global warming] to be used: The people pushing this believe they are heroic revolutionaries. They have set themselves up as the underdog, … [Read more...]
Senator Whitehouse, Your New Wardrobe Is Ready
One of the things I most appreciate about Joe Bastardi's book The Climate Chronicles: Inconvenient Revelations You Won't Hear from Al Gore---And Others is the long historical perspective he brings. Again and again he quotes alarmists about manmade global warming claiming that this or that event, or this or that series of events, or this or that period in this or that place, is "unprecedented" and therefore obviously due to human-induced warming---and then he opens up the history records and … [Read more...]
Hottest Arctic Ever? Arctic Climate Change Fairytales vs. Reality
Last week, social media and mainstream media were abuzz with news about the record Arctic heat and how we humans are destroying our planet through climate change. While we brace for a barrage of climate doomsday news, here is the actual reality of climatic conditions at the Arctic and reasons why we are not in imminent danger. On 26 February, temperatures in some regions of the Arctic hovered around the freezing point (zero degree Celsius)—a record high for this time of year in the satellite … [Read more...]
Why You MUST Read Joe Bastardi’s The Climate Chronicles
The 38th through 41st chapters of the Book of Job are among the most majestic, awe-inspiring passages in all literature, inside and outside the Bible. I cannot read them and not feel small, humbled by the omnipresence, omnipotence, and omniscience of God. They record questions God hurls rapid-fire, “out of the whirlwind,” at Job to impress on him his utter inability to control or even to explain the day-to-day events of the world. Here are a few, from Job 38:4–20: Where were you when I laid … [Read more...]
What alternatives to fossil fuels can support our leisurely lifestyle?
Unless you’re living in a time warp of the horse and buggy days, when humans were friendlier to the environment, but limited to travel as far as they could walk or as far as their horse would take them, you’re stuck reminiscing on those good-old emission free days without fossil fuels when lives were dirty, smelly, difficult – and short. Today, for those enjoying the lifestyle of the industrialized society, virtually everything you see, touch, and use in your daily life is derived from the … [Read more...]
How Are Polar Bear Extinction Fears Like Global Warming Fears?
By now the message is old hat to everybody, but in case you've forgotten, here's how Greenpeace puts it: "polar bears could completely disappear from the Arctic in the next 100 years if we don’t take action soon." Ah, right. Except that it's dead wrong. The chief reason? Just as is the case with fears of dangerous manmade global warming, those making the claim depend entirely on computer models, models that are at best not verified and at worst falsified by empirical observation—the "key to … [Read more...]
Why Solar and Wind Are Not the Future
Wind and solar are hailed as the future of our world. Are they? Wind farms were a familiar sight for me as they were an integral part of the landscape near my hometown in southern India. The general assumption was that these windmills would generate a significant amount of electricity to aid the energy sector that was struggling to meet soaring electricity demand. However, the wind farms turned out to be a burden, not a boon. They generated unreliable and expensive electricity that was … [Read more...]
What Do You Get When You Mix Socialism with Pursuit of Profits from Renewable Energy?
The latest from the climate alarmism's anti-capitalism department: Christiana Figueres, former Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (parent of the 2015 Paris climate agreement) and now a leader in "Mission 2020," an international cooperative effort to get global carbon dioxide emissions on a downward trend by 2020, is upset with heavy industry---especially (not surprisingly!) in the United States. She told Thomson Reuters Foundation News that heavy … [Read more...]
The New Copernicans: Millennials and the Survival of the Church
Recognizing the loss of many Millennials (18–30 year olds) from evangelical churches, The New Copernicans proposes a solution that will return them to the pews. The author and entrepreneur, John Seel, notes important factors in the contemporary scene: the diminishment of secular humanism; the growth of spiritual practices; the exodus of young people from church; and the consensus that we are in “the post secular age.” Seel’s insights are correct, but they do not make his solution correct; … [Read more...]
