Why Not to Trust Wikipedia—and Search Engines—on Climate Change

The indefatigable James Delingpole, drawing on a lengthy and thoroughly documented blog post by Kenneth Richard, writing at No Tricks Zone, has a great little article exposing the intentional bias not only of Wikipedia but also of Google and other search engines when it comes to anthropogenic climate change.

Whom to Trust? NASA GISS, NASA, or Cornwall Alliance?

Did Pope Francis Strike Out Again on Climate Change?

Pope Francis made news again lately with comments about the environment, particularly global warming. Unfortunately, it looks like he’s learned nothing since he released his promising but deeply flawed encyclical Laudato Si’ in June of last year.

What Would the Precautionary Principle Imply for Ethanol?

In 2007 Congress passed a law requiring the federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to study and report every three years to Congress on the environmental impact of EPA’s ethanol mandate. And in the intervening nine years, EPA has complied with the law once—in 2011. Now it says it’ll be 2024 before it can manage it
