Climate protestors destroying artworks and gluing themselves to roads without offering a shred of evidence for their alarm exhibit a malicious stupidity that is blind to the actual state of the world. Why do these activists not hold up placards with graphs, histograms, and Venn diagrams? Because actual data show that life today is much better than at any time in human history. Ignored is the fact that the change in climate has made Earth better and helped to advance humanity. Image: … [Read more...]
EVs May Have to Hibernate
The Swiss, we have learned, are so concerned about power outages in the dead of winter, the country is considering barring people from charging their electric vehicles. The draft regulation states that, “the private use of electric cars is only permitted for absolutely necessary journeys.” This restriction would follow bans on hot water in washing machines and limits on streamed videos. Think that’s a fluke? Think again. It was just months ago that California Governor Gavin … [Read more...]
UK’s Arctic Blast and Australia’s Cold Spring Contradict Climate Narrative
The mainstream media (MSM) wants the world to believe that climate change has turned us into rotisserie chickens. However, real-world temperatures are not warming to dangerous levels, nor are they going to. Australia’s ABC news, for example, tells its readers that the “influence of climate change ensures nearly every season is now warmer than normal.” Yet, in 2022 Australia experienced the coldest spring in 30 years! Major cities like Melbourne, Adelaide, and Canberra recorded their … [Read more...]
Wind and Solar Playing Spoilsport in South Asian Energy Haven
Tamil Nadu, India’s southernmost state, is regarded by some as the renewable energy capital of India. It’s also getting to be known for expensive electricity. The presence of highly windy regions makes the state an ideal place for wind farms. But despite the year 2022 being one the best for wind generation, the state utility here had to increase its prices.

Christians, There is Nothing Wrong with Eating Meat
Today, this anti-meat culture has arrived at the church’s doorstep. We now have thought leaders, media personalities, and even voices within the church calling for a reduction in meat consumption. Christians should know that the call to ban or reduce meat consumption is not only unbiblical but also scientifically baseless. Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash Global desperation for meat ban reaches Christian church In recent years, climate change has become one of the major … [Read more...]
Proposals For a Windfall Profits Tax Are Damaging Even If Never Enacted
In the wake of the midterm election results, President Biden has made it clear that “I’m not going to change,” in particular with respect to his view that “the oil companies are really doing the nation a real disservice.” Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash Accordingly, it is easy to predict a continuation of the incoherence of the Biden stance toward conventional energy: a policy environment reducing investment in future discovery, production, and ancillary capital … [Read more...]
Climategate: Never Forget (13th anniversary)
This is a guest article by By Robert Bradley Jr. “There is no doubt that these emails are embarrassing and a public-relations disaster for science.” – Andrew Dessler, “Climate E-Mails Cloud the Debate,” December 10, 2009. It has been 13 years since the intellectual scandal erupted called Climategate. Each anniversary inspires recollections and regurgitation of salient quotations. These quotations speak for themselves; attempts of climate alarmist to parse the words and meaning distracts … [Read more...]
The Warming that Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas
Now that I’m back to researching the surface air temperature record and the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect, I decided to revisit the temperatures in Las Vegas, Nevada. It’s been over 8 years since I posted about Las Vegas being the poster child for the UHI effect and I showed some warming trend calculations from the hourly temperature data at McCarren International Airport (now Harry Reid International Airport… not kidding) which suggested that much of the warming there has been from … [Read more...]
Where Can You Find Peace and Safety?
Image: Creative Commons under Unsplash In a world where everyone craves “peace and safety,” they are looking everywhere else but where it is truly found – and so wind up with neither. Our present world is in deep trouble far beyond merely the weather or the nastiest flu season in living memory. It is saddled with many juvenile political fantasies overwhelmed with economic malaise thanks to the abject legalism connected to those same political fantasies. Closely connected, our all-knowing … [Read more...]
The Iron Law Of Electricity Strikes Again: Germany Re-Opens Five Lignite-Fired Power Plants
Last week, numerous media outlets reported that Germany will extend the lives of three of its nuclear power plants. The move to keep the reactors online, which was opposed by the country’s Green Party, showed that German politicians are recognizing the need to keep reliable generation plants online to assure the country has enough electricity this winter. But another equally important announcement was also made last week that got far less media attention: German Chancellor Olaf Scholz … [Read more...]
