Most discussions of India’s annual budget are being dominated by the increased taxation of the middle class. But many media entities—both in India and the West—overlooked the country’s decision to increase its coal consumption. An economic survey released as a prelude to the financial budget often indicates the country’s future direction in various areas of governance, including energy and environment. This year’s survey—like those in the previous years—clearly indicates that the country … [Read more...]
The Unfolding 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season
Before the 2024 hurricane season began June 1, the National Hurricane Center had announced its prediction of an active hurricane season. Strong El Ninos are accompanied by a persistent jet stream coursing eastward from the Pacific Ocean over the northern Gulf of Mexico. The jet continues out over the Atlantic Ocean and disrupts clusters of thunder storms before they can organize into a stable circulation pattern defining a tropical storm system. During the El Nino cycle a nascent tropical … [Read more...]
Who is Directing the War on Agriculture and Nutrition?
Elite billionaire organizations and foundations, government agencies and activist pressure groups are funding and coordinating a global war on modern agriculture, nutrition, and Earth’s poorest, hungriest people. Instead of helping more families get nutritious food, better healthcare and higher living standards, they’re doing the opposite, and harming biodiversity in the process. The World Economic Forum wants to reimagine, reinvent and transform the global food system, to eliminate … [Read more...]
The True Cost of Biden’s Bet on EVs
Two months into his Presidency, Joe Biden announced a $2 trillion infrastructure plan that included $174 billion in grants, subsidies, and other payouts to encourage Americans to switch to battery-electric vehicles (BEVs). Since that initial “investment,” billions and billions more have been poured into what is increasingly a failing effort to convince or cajole auto buyers to switch. These huge expenditures, together with COVID and war monies, have ballooned the … [Read more...]
Anemia Would Rise in Climate Obsessed’s Meatless Dystopia
Iron deficiency, and the anemia it causes, remains a persistent global health issue that can only be exacerbated by a war on meat waged by climate alarmists, whose hostility to animal protein is a manifestation of an anti-human ideology. Growing up in South Asia, I observed a dietary practice in India where doctors prescribed moderate consumption of red meat for individuals with severe anemia, especially women during pregnancy. According to the World Health Organization, more than 40% of … [Read more...]
Carbon Dioxide Pipeline Battle—Seize Land for Green Energy
A battle is underway in five Midwest states over the construction of carbon dioxide pipelines as part of the green energy transition. Opposition to wide-area pipeline networks is rising from farms and communities. But utilities and state governments intend to seize land over landowner protests. On June 25, the Iowa Utilities Board (IUB) granted the petition of Summit Carbon Solutions (Summit) for a permit to build a carbon dioxide (CO2) pipeline across Iowa. The IUB determined that the … [Read more...]
Net Zero Agenda Threatens Your Future Garment Purchases
Whether living in the United States or in a European country, there is a greater chance of wearing a garment made in Bangladesh than in one’s homeland. However, the south Asian country’s dominance in the manufacture of clothing is being threatened by a “green” agenda undermining the power supply. With availability of cheap labor and plentiful raw materials, Bangladesh is the world’s second biggest garment exporter and trails only China, having surged ahead of other Asian competitors … [Read more...]
Power Outages Bring Hurricane of EV Buyers’ Remorse
Hurricane Beryl reminded millions of us Houstonians how lucky we are to have reliable petroleum-fueled cars when power is interrupted. As it happened, my wife, Nancy, and I had our return flight canceled from a conference we attended in El Paso, Texas, on the day before the storm hit. Accordingly, we drove a rental car across hundreds of miles of very hot desert sparsely populated with distant small towns and no apparent charging stations for unfortunate EVs. The terrible thought of … [Read more...]
Twisted Truth: Lies, Extreme Lies, and Climate Statistics
Predictably, the summer is once again heating up much of the Northern Hemisphere. And just as predictably global elites are turning up the heat on global warming, now global boiling. As the Washington Post recently headlined: “The U.N. warns ‘an era of global boiling’ has started.” Of course, US officials are on top of this global boiling meme. In early July, The Wall Street Journal reported the news about "The Science Behind Beryl's Early Fury": According to the National Weather … [Read more...]
Why the ‘Green Economy’ Is Suddenly in Retreat—in EU, US, and on Wall Street
The following is a guest article by Jonathan Miltimore. In February, a stream of tractors driven by Italian farmers arrived at the outskirts of Rome, horns blaring. The scene, which was captured by the Agence France-Presse, was just one of dozens of protests across Europe against EU regulations that farmers said threatened to put them out of work. “They’re drowning us with all these regulations,” one farmer at a protest in Pamplona, Spain, told The Guardian. “They need … [Read more...]
