Global warmers’ latest crusade is targeting “white supremacy everywhere,” starting with “the underlying systems of extraction, segregation, and racist inequality” central to American history, law enforcement, and our prison system. And you thought global warming was about the climate. Unlike the environmentalists of yesteryear who struggled to disannul any ties to Soviet-style Bolshevism, today’s eco-activists are indistinguishable from the revolutionaries they compete with.

Return of the tiger: Wildlife conservation amidst rapid economic development
One of the biggest push backs to economic development today is that it destroys nature. Radical organizations like Extinction Rebellion label capitalism and agriculture as evil. More specifically, they blame the fossil fuel industry and the rapid industrialization for the loss of ecosystems and habitats. On September 10, 2020, the Guardian UK ran an article which stated “Wildlife populations are in freefall around the world, driven by human overconsumption, population growth and … [Read more...]

No, Banning Fossil Fuels Won’t Raise Life Expectancy; Fossil-fueled Electricity Will
Mathematical modeler Caleb Stewart Rossiter of the CO2 Coalition reviews a model-based life expectancy study published in the journal Cardiovascular Research. The model misleadingly projects only the benefits and not the costs of eliminating affordable, reliable, and increasingly clean fossil fuels in favor of expensive, intermittent “renewables.” With only a third of homes having access to electricity, Africa in particular needs additional coal-fired power to reduce the indoor air … [Read more...]
The Green New Deal means monumental disruption
Not just for energy, but for every aspect of our lives, living standards, culture, and freedoms By Paul Driessen and David Wojick Kamala Harris co-sponsored the Senate resolution to support the Green New Deal. Now Joe Biden has endorsed the plan. Naturally, people want to know what the GND will cost – usually meaning in state and federal government spending. But that is the wrong question. The real question is, how much do Green New Dealers expect to get out of it, at what total cost? … [Read more...]
New Climate Summary: Meat, Livestock Have Little Climate Impact
American ranchers and U.S. meat consumption have virtually no impact on greenhouse gas emissions or climate, reports a compelling new climate summary. The new climate summary, “Climate at a Glance: Livestock and Methane,” documents that cattle and beef account for just 2% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. All livestock combined account for less than 4% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. Climate activists, many of whom are vegans for other reasons, often claim that ranchers, livestock, and meat … [Read more...]

Trump Administration Cleans Up the Environment, Critics Carp from the Sidelines
Even as President Donald Trump kept his promise to roll back unnecessary regulations that hamper U.S. economic competitiveness and job creation, his administration demonstrated its commitment to cleaning up the environment and keeping statutory deadlines for making environmental decisions. Trump’s efforts to spur significant economic growth and create high-paying jobs began shortly after his inauguration, when on January 30, 2017, he signed Executive Order 13771, directing agencies to issue … [Read more...]
The Lazy Man’s Way to Avoid Grappling with an Argument
Today I received this via email: I have seen a meme going around on Facebook that says: "Just so you know, Legitimate scientists tend to publish their research in academic journals, not on YouTube." What is your take on this? Is does come from a very strong Democrat supporter. The truth is that legitimate scientists publish in both places. However, scientists closely associated with the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the central figures of which are alarmists (and … [Read more...]
