Guest column by Rosalie A. Lavelle American Marxism (Simon and Schuster, July 2021) is a book filled with information on how the core elements of Marxist ideology have been ingrained in American society and culture. Marxism is now pervasive in our schools, in the press, in corporations, in sports, in Hollywood, in the Democratic Party, and in the Biden presidency. Author Mark R. Levin is chairman of the Landmark Legal Foundation, a syndicated talk-show radio host, host of Levin TV, host of … [Read more...]
To anti-capitalists climate change is just a pretext for a planned economy
Guest column by Rainer Zitelmann Many so-called climate change activists are not really concerned about the climate and the environment. No, for them, these are merely instruments in the fight against capitalism. Examine the standard work of anti-capitalist climate change activists and you will quickly see what I mean. Naomi Klein, the popular critic of capitalism and globalization, admits that she initially had no particular interest in the issues surrounding and related to climate … [Read more...]
A Brief History of the Cornwall Alliance—Part 4: We Come of Age
We ended Part 3 of this history with reference to An Examination of the Scientific, Ethical, and Theological Implications of Climate Change, produced by the Interfaith Stewardship Alliance—the original name of what became the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation. I don’t think any of us involved in creating it could imagine all that would come of it. But it shook some things up. Over a decade before, Marxist atheist astronomer Carl Sagan (famous for his Cosmos PBS program, each … [Read more...]
Al Gore Offers Africa Electricity by the Spoonful
Guest column by Ken Braun An anecdote widely attributed to (but perhaps not originating with) Milton Friedman holds that the late, great Nobel Prize laureate was touring a developing nation and happened upon a public works project. To make way for the new road or canal or whatever, platoons of workers using hand shovels were laboriously moving the dirt and rocks from one spot to another. Perplexed by this absurdly primitive approach, Friedman supposedly asked why the government wasn’t using … [Read more...]

Unmasking the Latest Bipartisan (and Dangerous) Climate Bill
It is summer in the United States, which means temperatures are hot and western forests and grasslands are burning—as has been the case as long as people have lived here. In our current age, however, in which there is alleged to be a political “solution” to nearly every problem, politicians believe they can use governmental policies to give us better weather and change the nature of wildfires. So far, Congress, state legislators, and the Biden administration have launched a blizzard of new … [Read more...]
IPCC-proposed banishment of fossil fuels would put most of the world’s people at risk
Oil derivatives and fuel manufactured from oil were the main reasons population rose to 8 billion. United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres calls the AR6 Climate Change 2021 Report, just released by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a “code red for humanity“ that "must sound a death knell for … fossil fuels, before they destroy our planet.” The report fails to acknowledge that the introduction of oil just over 100 years ago has been overwhelmingly beneficial, … [Read more...]
Exposing the Media’s Climate Change Lies and Exaggerations
For 20 years or more, dire warnings about global warming and “climate change” have taken the mass media of entertainment by storm. Every few years, climate change doomsayers have claimed that the world only has 12 years to turn the tide. They said practically the same thing 12 and 15 years ago; however, that they’re saying this year! Many news stories, many news programs and many movies, including many documentaries, have sounded the alarm about global warming and climate change, such as Al … [Read more...]
CLIMATE ALARMISTS CALL FOR GLOBAL ‘ECO-DICTATORSHIP’
Every so often the truth seeps out that significantly reducing global greenhouse gas emissions will require enormous sacrifices, meaning profound losses of welfare on people's part. Bear that in mind when you hear politicians’ promises of “net zero by X date” or “50 or 80 percent carbon dioxide reductions by year X.” In the Western world, the energy cuts and lifestyle changes required to hit net zero will mean going back to early-1800s levels of emissions. This will force enormously negative … [Read more...]
Mainstream Media Ignores Good News, Cries “Wolf” Over Climate Change
On a given morning the individual who happens to subscribe to a local newspaper likely may wake up over coffee greeted by a headline reading “Global Warming (or Climate Change, or Climate Crisis) Is Causing Increasing Deaths,” with latest estimates reaching into the multi-millions. Is this otherwise implausible statement credible? It may seem entirely plausible in the eyes of “the woke” segment of 21st Century US society. Recently the Heartland Institute’s Dr. H. Sterling Burnett examined … [Read more...]
