Elevated Living Standards Contradict Climate Doomsayers
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: Creative … [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 Newsom [well, … [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...]

Tamil Nadu, India’s southernmost state, is regarded by some as the renewable energy capital of India.

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 UnsplashAccordingly, 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 assets … [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...]
